Quick Summary: Private, flat-rate transportation between Cragun’s Resort (Gull Lake south shore, Brainerd) ⇆ MSP Airport (Terminal 1 & Terminal 2). All rides are pre-scheduled, 100% private, and never pooled. One-way daytime rates per vehicle: Basic Car $365, Black Car $435, Large Van $460.

Cragun’s sits about two and a half hours north of MSP, which means a morning flight starts before sunrise and a late arrival gets you back to the lake well after dark. Citywide handles both ends as ordinary bookings: a private, nonstop, door-to-door ride from the resort to MSP, or from MSP back to your cabin, at a flat rate per vehicle rather than per person. Your driver meets you at your building — not a central pickup point — and drives straight through. No transfers, no route stops, no other passengers.
One-way flat-rate pricing (per ride, not per person):
Basic Car: $365 ·
Black Car: $435 ·
Large Van: $460
Daytime rates for rides between 8:00 AM and 8:00 PM. After-hours rates are $435, $525 and $575. Gratuity not included.
