While it was more of a burden than I like to bring our own bed linen, towels, etc. we were told that up front and it was fine to do that. In a way it is preferred in that we were sleeping in our own linens from home.
The home was clean and very high quality rich with wood throughout. The only knock I have is the sink faucet sprayed such that it soaked the entire sink area if turned on full force. You just need to use a little caution. I would change out the faucet aerator.
The grounds are nice and wooded and a terrific lake for kayaking, and a nice seating area at the lake’s edge. Very scenic and relaxing.
Very limited and spotty wifi access but going off grid is not so bad.
The nearby store (2 minute walk) was nice but pretty expensive. Bring your own fruits and cereals if you’re so inclined. Very pleasant staff.
You need to drive 2 minutes to the pool and sauna area which was very nice and with pleasant staff. Nicely kept up. Having that area remote like it is (but still not very far) is good to keep foot traffic in that area away from the cabin. The drinks and pizza were very good but a little pricey. Not that bad though and it is not assembly line pizza.
I would recommend this as a destination unless someone is pampered and needs everything at your fingertips and silk sheets.
The surrounding area is gorgeous (it’s the U.P. after all) and remote but close enough to civilization if you need it.
Most importantly my children loved it. They will want to go back.
