You came for the Northwoods. Stay for the bullseyes.
Lake days, cabin weekends and a little friendly competition. Put Hatchet House on your Bemidji itinerary and give everyone a story to take home.
Plan your Bemidji night
One night. Everybody’s in.
A great trip has the things you came to see—and the things you didn’t expect to love. Axe throwing gives your group a shared challenge, a reason to cheer and a winner who will absolutely mention it on the drive home.
Make it a date night, a reunion stop, a cabin-group outing or a break from watching everyone else compete. A quick safety briefing helps newcomers get started. You bring the people; the first bullseye will handle the conversation.
Three ways to make a Bemidji day of it.
Downtown + a little competition
Start with a photo at Paul Bunyan and Babe on the Lake Bemidji waterfront. Explore downtown, make your own dinner plans, then finish with an axe-throwing reservation.
Trail time + indoor play
Explore Lake Bemidji State Park or a stretch of the Paul Bunyan Trail. Trade your outdoor adventure for a booked throwing session together later in the day.
Beavers game + your own scoreboard
In town for Bemidji State sports? Plan around the official game schedule, then bring friends and visiting family to compete on a lane of your own.
The rain plan everyone will actually want.
Rain at the cabin? Wind on the lake? Give the group a plan that doesn’t depend on the forecast. Hatchet House brings the competition indoors.
A reserved throwing time makes the rest of the evening easier to arrange. Check the booking calendar before setting off, especially if several families or friend groups are traveling together.
For ideas around your visit, explore the lakefront, trails and downtown activities on Visit Bemidji. These are suggested stops to combine yourself, not a guided tour or bundled admission.
Make it your kind of outing.
Date night with a story
Take turns, swap encouragement and pick a friendly wager—loser chooses tomorrow’s breakfast spot.
Cabin crews & reunions
Break into smaller rivalries or cheer as one group. Contact the venue for help planning a party that needs multiple lanes.
Visiting teams & sports families
Get everyone doing something between the scheduled events. Plan around your game commitments and check the lane calendar.
