Horseshoe Resort offers laid-back lakeside lodging just outside Cass Lake, with convenient access to one of Northern Minnesota’s most productive fisheries. The resort is a great fit for anglers, families, and outdoor enthusiasts seeking a clean, quiet place to stay in the Northwoods. While the resort does not operate its own guide service, guests can independently book a fully guided trip with Zup’s Guide Service. Led by Scott Zupfer, Zup’s provides professional, personalized fishing experiences on Cass Lake and surrounding waters.

Prime Access to Cass Lake

Located on the southeastern side of Cass Lake, Horseshoe Resort is perfectly positioned for fishing and boating adventures. Guests can easily access key fishing areas on the Cass Lake chain, whether launching their own boat or coordinating with a local guide. Zup’s Guide Service frequently fishes these waters and offers convenient pickup options depending on conditions and the season.

Cabins and Convenience

Horseshoe Resort features a selection of rustic, comfortable cabins that come equipped with full kitchens, private bathrooms, and everything needed for a relaxing stay. Surrounded by pines and located right on the water, the setting is ideal for unplugging and enjoying everything the area has to offer. Dock space, boat access, and a friendly, low-key atmosphere make it a classic Minnesota getaway for anglers and vacationers alike.

Fish with a Local Pro

Scott Zupfer of Zup’s Guide Service is a U.S. Coast Guard Licensed and fully insured fishing guide with decades of experience on Cass Lake, Lake Winnie, Leech Lake, and beyond. Each trip includes the boat, rods, reels, bait, electronics, and fish cleaning. Whether you’re jigging walleye, chasing pike, or learning new techniques, Scott brings local insight and a laid-back attitude that makes every trip approachable and effective.

Independent and Stress-Free

Because Zup’s operates independently, you’re able to book directly and get a one-on-one experience tailored to your goals. There’s no lodge-run scheduling—just a knowledgeable guide focused on helping you catch fish and enjoy your time on the water. It’s a smart way to take the pressure off and make the most of your time at Horseshoe Resort.

Reserve Ahead for Best Availability

Both Horseshoe Resort and Zup’s Guide Service can book quickly during peak fishing windows like the spring opener, summer weekends, and first ice. Planning ahead ensures you lock in your ideal dates for both lodging and guiding. Since these are handled separately, you have complete flexibility to customize your Northern Minnesota trip to suit your pace and priorities.
