We rented a cabin out here, and it was amazing. We came in April time so the weather was nice and cool, but never got really cold. There's no shortage of places to hike, kayak, fish, and relax. However, we had to drive about 45 minutes to get to any kind of restaurant or shopping, but that's the price you pay for being that deep in the woods. What a great way to spend a vacation.
Apr 14, 2019 · Google ReviewI was really surprised. I think all my family gasped as we walked in the cottage. It was clean and very nice. More than we expected! We were in cottage 20 and that one you can bring 2 pets, there was no smell in the cottage. I would not recommend small Children at this cottage due to it would be a long drop if the child fell into the water, just a concern for me, but they have other cottages and grounds to camp. Great Place to relax! P.S. Our cottage was equipped with dishes so it's up to you if you want to bring your own

Apr 15, 2019 · Google ReviewThis was the best camping experience I've ever had. There is very little to no noise except the wind, birds, and water. The sky is beautiful, and the scenery is great. The lands are massive and provide plenty of places to camp, hunt, or whatever. I went winter camping at one of the camp sites and stayed for a few days, and it was perfect. Only problem I had was rain on the lalast day, but thats fine. Be sure to be ready for dirt/gravel roads, and bring plenty of water with you, even for cleaning. When you are camping in hunting season be sure to wear orange vests or hats. Also, bring tick repellant, there aren't much during the winter, I only caught one on me when using thw spray, it was probably on my dog. Be sure to bring an offline map just in case, but I had service for most of it. Another thing, be sure to stay warm if you are going during the winter, and bring an emergency jumpstart battery, if your car battery doesn't start well in freezing temps then you will be out of luck. I'm glad I got one for Christmas or I would've been stuck there. Be sure to clean up after yourself and don't leave too much of an impact on the environment.
