About Baxter

Baxter is known for its beautiful countryside and tranquil atmosphere. With the Mississippi River cupping its southern fringes and such lakes as Whipple and White Sand sprinkling the countryside, Baxter is an amazing retreat for water sports enthusiasts and other outdoorsmen. Baxter is also touted as the starting point for the Paul Bunyan Trail, which is over 100 miles long and is one of the longest paved trails in the United States. Perfect for bikers, birdwatchers and even casual hikers, the trail provides plenty of natural scenery with several unobtrusive rest areas along the way. The trail's Pequot Lake area is popular with visitors who want to experience the rustic outdoors. Baxter is one of those little towns that take pride in their old-fashioned roots. With its amazing down home-style cooking, beautiful scenery and fun activities, Baxter has become a wonderful retreat from the hustle and bustle of the average vacation spot.

Did you know?

Many residents of Baxter work in Brainerd, which at only a few miles away is a larger center for commerce and industry. Because the two towns share a boundary on Baxter's eastern side, some out-of-towners mistakenly refer to Brainerd as "Braxter."
