"The Lodge is a place to remember. I'm old enough to have been to many cabins around the Northwoods - this place is tops. It's the wood walls, the open floor plan, the windows, and more windows. The outside is inside in a special way. Wonderful fireplace to sit and watch the flames dance at the end of the day. I'll try to return again to enjoy its treasures and make more memories." - D.K.

The lodge was a great place to stay with extended family but ...

One thing lacking is providing bath towels and hand towels in the bathrooms. Even though you are told upfront the lack of towels seems cheap. We get providing your own beach towels but providing your own bath towels is a first for us. The fireplace was great and the firewood was provided. The view was amazing and we loved waking up to the sound of the loons each morning.
