Barnacles Resort — Lake Mille Lacs

Open-Water Season

Harbor & Boat Slips

The Barnacles Harbor

Keep your boat in the water, all summer long

Our protected harbor sits just off the big lake with 66 seasonal slips and the private boat launch steps away. Skip the trailer, skip the ramp lines — when the evening bite turns on, you're idling out of the harbor in minutes.

Mille Lacs, minutes from your lot

At 132,000 acres, Mille Lacs is Minnesota's second-largest lake and one of the best multi-species fisheries anywhere — walleye, smallmouth that national tournaments are built around, muskie, northern pike, and jumbo perch. From the Barnacles harbor on the quieter north shore, the famous flats and rock reefs are a short run away.

Not an angler? The harbor works just as well for pontoon sunsets, tubing afternoons, and slow cruises down the shoreline.
