Shire in the Woods

Verified by uberall

Welcome to the Shire in the Woods, where the natural surroundings will nourish and rejuvenate your soul! Located 18 miles east of northern Mille Lacs Lake, we are tucked away in the heart of the Solana State Forest and have the Soo Line South Trail running right alongside us. Relax with a good book in front of a fireplace or take a stroll in the beautiful woods. The Shire can serve you, your family and friends, facilitate special groups, workshops, meetings, host a wedding, hold a family reunion, and more! No matter where you are at in your writing practice, the natural beauty and tranquility of the Shire is perfect for a writers retreat. Whatever your event or occasion, we will work with you to best serve your needs. Our private, wooded retreat has seven, year round dwellings: four smaller cabins, the Cedar House, the Tree Lodge, a community space and library in the Octagon, a screened-in gazebo, a wood burning sauna, 5 miles of groomed trails, a rose garden, a labyrinth, a beaver.
