(4 paddle miles away) was designated a Dark Sky Sanctuary in September, 2020 which is the first such designation in Minnesota.

With an effort to share the awe-inspiring star lit sky above by reducing the effects of too many lights, guests enjoy staring upward at the “wilderness above us”. Discover constellations, the Milky Way, the moon, planets, and stars….sky sights almost every night for the unaided eye.
A recent study said:
“humanity has enveloped our planet in a luminous fog that prevents most of Earth’s population from having the opportunity to observe our galaxy…”
Here at River Point Resort’s unique wilderness peninsula with open spaces all around its point you’ll have the chance to successfully gaze upward, observe, and cherish the extraordinary night sky.
