Minnesota Family Vacations and
Cheap Vacation Ideas for
Your Family Vacations

...including the Top 10 Family Vacations
in Minnesota

Minnesota family vacations can be cheap family vacations with some of our cheap vacation ideas. Check out the top 10 family vacations in Minnesota.

Minnesota Family Vacations Family vacations create lasting memories. When I was a child in Minnesota, our family vacations were often camping vacations in one of our Minnesota State Parks.

A couple of times we rented a small cabin at what is now Cragun's Resort. When our own children were young, we camped all over Minnesota. We also, when we could afford it, stayed in small resort cabins. The cabins were always on a lake and we had the use of a boat plus our own "private" swimming beach. It seemed like heaven!

The idea of discount family vacations, or thinking up cheap vacation ideas, never occured to us. We were always short of money so just assumed we would do with what we had and have a great time with what was cheap or free.

Read reviews from other Minnesota vacationers and learn what they consider to be “the best of” Minnesota vacations.

Top 10 Family Vacations

Minnesota has a wide variety of terrain from north to south. There is also a great variety in the Minnesota family vacations you can experience in these destinations. There is so much to say that we've chosen our "top 10" and "best" family vacations across Minnesota and shared about them on several pages. We're sure you will have a memorable family vacation in any of them.

  • Top 10 Family Vacations in Minnesota highlights the major regions of our state and will give you some ideas about family fun vacations in each destination.

  • Best Family Vacation Spots takes you to some of our favorite towns and suggests where to stay and what to see for a memorable family vacation.

  • Best Family Vacation Destinations offers even more tips about specific area of Minnesota and what to see and do on your family vacation in Minnesota.

  • Family Resorts in Minnesota include the large Minnesota resorts that are well known for their extensive facilites and recreational opportunities. Another type of family resort is the small, family owned resort that is a collection of individual cabins. We grew up taking our vacations in these cabin resorts and went back to the same place year after year. You are not as likely to find these family resorts listed online and may want to call the tourism office in the area you want to visit to see what is available.

Cheap Family Vacations

A cheap family vacation, discount family vacation or budget friendly vacation...whatever you call it...is possible if you are willing to explore ways to save money on every part of your vacation. While it may be fun to enjoy the added amenities and luxuries of the most expensive hotel or resort, focus instead on what really matters about a family vacation.

Cheap Vacation Ideas is a great overview about how to save money on any vacation. Some of it is just common sense and other tips may be new to you. We also point you to some great trip planning resources.

Since budgets are tight for most people these days, we have continued to add pages that may seem like "variations on a theme" but all have some unique insights and cheap vacations ideas:

We realize that budgets vary. For some people cheap Minnesota family vacations simply means camping. For others, finding the best deals on hotels, bed and breakfast inns or Minnesota resorts is how they want to save on their vacation budget. Here are two pages on how to save on hotels and how to save on most anything else you will do on your Minnesota vacation.

The Most Inexpensive Family Vacations

Minnesota Family Fun does not need to be on hold until you can take a week for a family vacation. Take a day, a weekend or just an evening to get out and enjoy Minnesota.

For truly low budget Minnesota family vacations do something really radical and take a vacation right in your own home or backyard! You will get some great ideas on these pages:
