Lodging located in the heart of Sax-Zim Bog at 8796 Highway 7, Kelsey, Minnesota, Hidden Gem is a peaceful and private getaway surrounded by 12.5 acres of wooded land along the Whiteface River.

We’re Kim and Jason, and we’re proud to share our home and land with guests who love the outdoors, wildlife, and the simple beauty of nature. Whether you’re here to hike the trails, photograph birds and wildlife, paddle or fish the river, or simply relax in quiet comfort, we look forward to welcoming you to Hidden Gem.

Each season offers something special—owls and snow-covered trails in winter, blooming wildflowers in spring, and the golden glow of tamaracks in fall.

We invite you to slow down, explore, and enjoy the rhythms of nature in this peaceful corner of northern Minnesota.

Experience the serenity and adventure of northern Minnesota—all year long.
