Glenmore’s location is ideal. Our secluded, private resort is located only two miles from Tower for convenient shopping, retaurants, and services.

The International Wolf Center, the North American Bear Center, and a great unique north woods shopping district is found in Ely. Lake Vermilion is located near the Superior National Forest and serves as a motorized access point into Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. There are ten golf courses within 25 miles of the resort, including three beautiful championship courses. Other nearby attractions include Minnesota Discovery Center, the US Hockey Hall of Fame and the Vince Shute Bear Sanctuary.
We had a wonderful time celebrating our 50th Wedding Anniversary at Glenmore Resort. Since it was our first time staying with you we naturally did not know what to expect. Your hospitality shown toward our whole family was very welcoming and appreciated. We caught a lot of fish and took time to experience other activities in the area. The Tower Soudan Underground Mine trip was an education about iron ore mining, and an eye opener to the hardships endured by the miners. Your other guests were a lot of fun to be with too. Our cabin provided everything we needed to be comfortable for our week’s stay. The porch with the single beds were our favorite hang out in the evening with the cool breezes blowing off of the lake and view of the grandkids swimming right below us. There can’t be a better beach and swimming area anywhere which was totally unexpected for a big lake such as Lake Vermilion. Thanks again for your great resort and service!
