The fire broke out in Kabetogama, Minnesota around 5 o’clock in the evening.

Kabetogama is about 30 miles southeast of International Falls.

The fire happened at the Voyageur Park Lodge.

According to Friends of the Northland FireWire, when crews arrived, part of a two-story structure was engulfed.

The fire destroyed the lodge.
