Welcome to Sax Zim Bog Lodge!

We're located in downtown Hibbing, Minnesota, about three hours from the Minneapolis/St. Paul area and 50 miles from Duluth and 40 miles to Giants Ridge Recreation area.

Just a little about the Sax Zim Bog Lodge itself- we are situated in Downtown Hibbing and about 30 miles from the Sax Zim Bog Nature Preserve. We are also super close to the amazing talented Bob Dylan’s Childhood home. We are approximately only 8 blocks away if you are looking for a stroll. You can check out the brick public art tribute that commemorates Dylan’s Nobel Prize in Literature on the way to the home. This is a great opportunity to check it out.

Some helpful tips for your stay:

In order to book your stay, please book the number of people that will be staying at the Lodge. You will then sign a short-term rental agreement. You will send me your email address so that i can send you the link to complete the verification for the Safely insurance company, which happens within 24 hours after receiving your email address. This allows our 3rd party screening company to verify your identity and check databases to confirm your reservation. (Please note your driver's license doesn’t go to us it will go to the 3rd party screening company for verification.) Please remember this needs to be completed within 3 days after your booking or your booking reservation will be canceled to allow others to book the lodge. The verification system sends this to you about 24 hours after receiving your email address.

There is insurance offered by Safelystay.Inc. They offer up to $1,500 of coverage for accidental coverage and $100,000 for accidental property damage.
We highly recommend purchasing travel insurance, especially with snowy Northern MN winters in case your plans should change due to the weather and travel issues. No refunds can be issued other than what is advertised which is a full refund up to 30 days in advance, or 50% up to 14 days in advance, minus any stripe credit card fees.
