Activities & Amenities
If you’re looking to ‘Rejuvinate” at a quiet family resort – get away to our Brainerd Resort. Here’s an extensive list of Things to Do from our resort.
Fishing Brainerd
Fishing in Brainerd Minnesota’s wide variety of lakes and rivers has been a popular destination for fisherman and their families since the first Brainerd resorts were developed.
Brainerd Family Reunions
Whether you’re looking for a family reunion cabin or lodge, a work reunion, a school reunion or just a reunion with good friends, we have something to please all of the your members.
Quality Cabins & Cleanliness – We give ourselves plenty of time to clean and make any necessary repairs be tween guests due largely to our weekly check-in after 9am on Saturday and check out the following Friday before 10am. As owners of Shing Wako Resort we believe in being good resources managers.
Reunions – We offer a wide range of lake cabins and price points to help you in planning your family or other Reunion with us!
The Perfect Size Lake – Lake Edward is over 2000 acres with a 100% sand shore – large enough for water sports, but more peaceful than a chain of lakes. Fish for walleye, northern pike, bass and more! We have boats available to rent and Responsible jet skiing is allowed.
Flexible Reservations in the Summer – Book your “week” checking in after 9 am on Saturday and checking out the following Friday before 11 am, or book a “mini vacation” – Fri-Mon for 3 nights or Mon-Fri for 4 nights. See our cabins page for more details.
Gradual Sandy Beach & Clear Water – Our beach area has a very gradual sand slope with clear water; ideal for swimming, building sand castles or just relaxing in the sun.
Quiet Family Resort – We are sensitive to the relaxation of others by observing a quieter time after 10 pm. Try Bird Watching.
Your Own Fire Ring – Each cabin has it’s own fire ring nearby for your enjoyment.
Centrally Located in the Brainerd Lakes Area – We are on the “quiet” side of Brainerd, well off of Hwy 371. Click here for an extensive list of Day Trips from our resort.
