Gilbert, Minnesota, sits in the heart of the Iron Range in St. Louis County. Established in 1907, it is rich in small-town charm. Lake Ore-Be-Gone, a reclaimed mine pit, brags clear waters that are ideal for swimming, fishing, and scuba diving. Divers search for submerged mining ruins. Gilbert's downtown features eateries and shops like the Whistling Bird, known for its Caribbean-inspired cuisine, and Kandy N Konez, a popular spot for sweet treats.
