Schmidt's Landing

I highly recommend staying here. We had a wonderful time at our family reunion. There's plenty for young children to do and it's a beautiful setting. The owners are kind and go out of their way for their guests. On our last morning, we took a family photo by the lighthouse. I laid my wallet by a tree and completely forgot about it. By the time I realized I didn't have my wallet, we were an hour and a half down the road. I called and they immediately located my wallet and offered to mail it to me free of charge. They were unwilling to accept a Venmo or Paypal...they simply asked that we would come back and visit them again. We certainly will. They showed kindness and grace and it was very much appreciated! If you're looking for a fun place to unplug and enjoy some family or alone time, look no further.

Jeni and Adam were wonderful! We stayed in the middle of June. They were very accommodating and friendly. The prices were great and the rooms were comfortable. Our cabin was updated and look great. The playground for the little children was really nice. My husband and I had our sons, daughter-in-law and grandson joined us. There was plenty of room for everyone, even a curious toddler.
My husband and I enjoyed it so much we booked another vacation in July. We plan on going back next year and in the years to come. Great place to have a family reunion, vacation and relax or go fishing. Jeni will give you the information about the hot fishing spots.

This was our first time staying at Schmidts. The resort overall is very tidy. Staff is present and easy to speak to anytime for any reason. They have 4+ docks some with build in seating. Very nice boat launch area, a full concrete slab. The restroom facilities available for weekend campers were actually spotless! Overall a very nice resort and great spaces for children. I would highly recommend Schmidts Landing.

Just finished a two night stay in their west unit. Rooms were clean, comfortable and adequately stocked kitchen. Friendliness of the two owners was top notch off the chart. It shows they care about their facility, grounds and their guests. Adam even met us in the rain to help us dock the pontoon we rented from them. Great place to head out fishing from. Perch and bluegills are abundant without having to travel far. There were four of us for two days. We kept 105 perch and 29 bluegills. Minnesota limits were 120 and 40 respectively. Due its border status you can fish from the South Dakota side only a Minnesota license. It was my first visit and 3-4 year repeat visits for the other guys. Remember to bring a pillow, blankets, towels and dish towels. Sheets are provided though. Black house flies are very prevalent however. Mildly bothersome but at least they’re not the biting kind! I kept forgetting to bring a few dead ones out on the boat to see they would enhance my fish catch. Grubs on white 1/8 ounce jig heads for the sunfish and on gold for the perch 1 foot off the bottom in 10-12 feet of water off small points of land.

I have enjoyed my stay. Comfortable kitchenette. Jenny and Adam are awesome folks and the new owners. Ice fishing has been good they have a nice cleaning station with a friendly little kitty to keep you company while your cleaning fish. I'll be back this summer for sure.

I called Schmidt's landing a few days before I travelled to reserve a room. I spoke with Jenny, one if the owners, who was happy to answer all of my questions. She was also very accommodating in the fact that we could have the room in the morning since I was wanting to take a nap before heading into work for the night shift. Our cabin was very clean and in excellent condition. The playground is great for the kids and Jenny was happy to provide us with complimentary coffee and hot cocoa. Will definitely stay here again if I ever work near by.

Had a great experience at Schmidt’s Landing. Prime fishing spot if you having been here before as many fishermen came just to fish. Would definitely return since owners were really pleasant & environment was welcoming. A lot of nice seasonal people at the location. Has cabin & RV spaces to rent. A fish cleaning station. Boat & pontoon rentals available. Showers & bathrooms were more than adequate! However, hours for showers maybe limited.

Had a chance to play a little golf as well.

Stayed at the Pelican Paradise and found it to be extremely accommodating for 4 guys to stay in. The fish cleaning house was well kept up as Jenny and Adam was there taking buckets of fish guts out as they filled up also. Will definitely be visiting there again!!

My wife, son and I have a wonderful, although short stay, at Schmidt's Landing in late July 2013. The owner/operators are wonderful and very accommodating. The accommodations are immaculate and very well maintained. We had surprisingly good fishing for so late in the season. It was a very relaxing mini-vacation and good for the soul! I highly recommend Schmidt's Landing for someone or family wanting a very nice vacation away from it all.

We had a group of 4 families stay at Schmidt's Landing. Everyone had a great time. Jenny and Adam were great and went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. The rooms and grounds were well kept and clean. We have already rebooked for next year.

The new owners are great and have been wonderful. It is a great place to stay. Everyone I have met here has nothing but great things to say about staying here and coming back year after year to the resort. The suite I stayed in has a gas stove, refrigerator, microwave, and two rooms with two double beds. There is also a sofa sleeper in the main room. Wifi is available and they have dish network as well. This will be our new home base for vacation while living in Fargo.

2nd time to Schmidt's Landing and it is a go to spot for great fishing. Owners have created 5 Star family destination. Will be returning often!

Excellent place to stay! This is our 3rd summers staying on a permanent camp spot and we LOVE IT! The owners are FABULOUS & the resort is awesome! Great convenience of the store: pizza, snacks, groceries, beverages, bathrooms with showers, firewood, bait & gas up your boat from the water! Guests may use the playground, swim area, kayaks, paddle boats and many docks to fish from. They also have their own private boat ramp to launch your boat and the fishing is amazing! They have campsites, cabins and boats to rent: call to make reservation. Great place to stay!

Jen and staff very friendly and accommodating, rooms clean fish cleaning station was great with granite counters, easy access. Its just a nice place to stay and they are awsome people. Thank you some much

First time being here . We came on a last minute trip with our ice house. They went above and beyond to help us get on the lake and helpful with any questions we had. Easy to get on and off the lake. Very accommodating and reasonably priced. We are looking forward to another trip here and would highly recommend.

Very well maintained and continues to improve on what's there. Fishing from the docks was great. Will continue to come back. This was our third stay and Continued to meet all my expectations. Can't beat the value at this resort.

Pulled our camper there in Oct. and stayed in a store to do some ice fishing in Feb. Great place to stay and very affordable! Great people!

Stayed the night when we ice fished big stone. Clean rooms right by the lake. I also frequently stop when I'm on the lake for bait and fishing reports etc..
Jeny and Adam are great and so is their place!

We went here a few years ago and it was amazing! Perfect for a family who loves to fish, relax, and enjoy beautiful scenery. The most relaxing and peaceful vacation we've ever been on.

Jenny & Adam and their family are amazing! We had our first year of our camper down there. Lots of family fun.
