A Minnesota Family Resort
Bill & Theresa Garry and family – Jenny, Mike, Tom & Hollie are the owners of Agate Lake Resort. Our family works hard to make your stay relaxing and enjoyable.
Bill looked for jobs in the Brainerd Lakes area in hopes to move his family up north. He never found anything that was a good fit until his father mentioned a resort for sale.
Bill and Theresa came up to Brainerd in February of 1993 to see the resort and visit with the previous owners.
It felt right and we left saying, “Yes, this is what we want to do!”
We closed on it in May 1993 and moved from the cities in June with our 4 children ranging in ages from 6 months to 8 years. We were totally green in resorting, so it was a big step.
When we bought the resort there were nine seasonal cabins and a lodge. Over the years we have moved two cabins, torn down four cabins and the lodge, and rebuilt six new year round cabins, a game room, and remodeled five cabins.
Agate Lake Resort was originally built in the 40′s and has had many changes since then. One thing that has not changed is the quiet, peaceful, beautiful place that it is, surrounded by tall pines on groomed level grounds on a pristine lake.
