The City of Baxter

With Baxter being so conveniently close to Brainerd, everything that Brainerd has to offer can be enjoyed by Baxter residents as well! With everything there is to do in Baxter, remodeling is a much better option to stay in the place you love and know.

With so many great Minnesota activities and things to doing and around the Baxter & Brainerd Area, there’s no wonder it has long been considered “Minnesota’s Playground.” Over 450 lakes in the area means that you can enjoy fishing, swimming, tubing, skiing, canoeing, kayaking, or just relaxing on a beach on a sunny day. Residents are able to take in nature at its finest on one of our many scenic Minnesota biking and hiking trails, or even horseback riding thorough scenic state parks and forest land. You can even take a birding tour with a local bird guide if that’s more up your alley.

The Baxter offers some of the most acclaimed and challenging Minnesota golf courses in the Central Minnesota area and has been rated a top fifty world golf destination. Racing enthusiasts can enjoy two Minnesota raceways including North Central Speedway and the Brainerd International Raceway, which is proudly the largest speedway in the northern Midwest. This track serves up a wide variety of racing throughout the summer including the Lucas Oil Nationals where racing fans get a huge dose of top fuel dragsters making this event a must-go-to during the summer months.

The Baxter area has recently added a few new things to do to its already impressive list. Check out the new Safari North Wildlife Park, take a cruise on Gull Lake with Destiny Cruises, enjoy three days of rock and country music at the Lakes Jam Music Fest, or enjoy one of our three new Minnesota breweries.

Winter enthusiasts will also find many great Minnesota winter activities including snowmobiling our 1200 miles of groomed Minnesota snowmobiling trails, cross country skiing on one of our 16 groomed trails, or enjoy a relaxing afternoon of snowshoeing. Residents also love the convenient location of Minnesota’s largest tubing hill, snow board or downhill skiing at Mount Ski Gull. When you’re done partaking in a few of our many attractions, return home with the realization of why you live in Baxter. It’s amazing here but sometimes life happens, kids arrive, and you may need a larger home in the future.

Don’t move, remodel. Stay in the home and an area you love.
