sailing regatta at Ruttger's

Ruttger's resort boat rental fleet is the largest in the Bemidji, Minnesota area. The rental fleet includes  rental pontoon boats in three sizes, a family run-about ski boat, which is perfect for water-skiing, wave runner, several fishing boats, Sunfish sailboats, canoes, and kayaks.  Our resort marina has something for everyone.

Whether you enjoy peacefully strolling our half mile of beautiful sandy beach, or basking in the sun around the lake or pool, our waterfront is at your disposal.  Our boathouse staff will be happy to help you hoist the sail on a sunfish sailboat, see you off on a quiet sunset paddle across our golden lake, or help the kids get started on frolicking adventures in a kayak, canoe, or Sunfish sailboat.

The marina also rents mountain bikes and children's bikes for use on the resort grounds or the many trails in the Bemidji Minnesota area. The resort is located an easy one mile bike ride from the Lake Bemidji State Park with it's miles of trails. The Paul Bunyan Trail goes right through the park, follows the east shore of Lake Bemidji south to Bemidji, then south to the Walker, Minnesota area.
