From LA, currently in MN for awhile:
Northern MN is really nice late August, early September. Highs in the 70-80s, lows 40-60s.
Boundary waters canoe area could be fun if they’re a little more adventurous (rent canoes, paddle only lakes connected by “portages”).
Voyageurs National Park is similar but you can rent houseboats or a fishing boat. Would recommend getting a permit soon if you’re interested.
Or really just pick any lake north of Minneapolis and you would be good.
More towards August will be warmer and more swimming friendly weather. By mid September, nights can easily be in the 40s consistently.

I'm strongly considering this at some point. Would be awesome to have days in the 60-70s to fish in August but sit around a camp fire in the 40-50s at night.
The only problem is they are so far north, 4.5 hours from Minneapolis.
I'm starting to look somewhere closer to Toronto or maybe Lake Champlain next to Montreal we could fly into.
The Canadian border at Lake of the Woods and Voyeagers NP is 25 hour drive for me. I enjoy a good road trip but I don't want to do 50 hours of driving this trip.
