We stayed at Cabin O' Pines for a week with two other families, each of us in seperate cabins, and had a blast. The cabins were really clean upon check-in. Even the spider webs on the outsides had been removed! Amenities inside the cabin were as expected- cups, plates, bowls, and silverware along with a few pots and pans, spatulas, etc. The beds and furniture were comfortable and the cabins generally had a very cozy feel.

What really made the week, though, was the plethora of activities. The kids were happy to find two playgrounds and a zipline to rotate between. The adults were happy to have one of the playgrounds within sight and hearing of the cabins so younger kids could have supervision while at one of the playgrounds, while the older kids could have more freedom at the second playground. There is a playhouse and tons of yard games to play (bocce, croquet, carpet ball, basketball, ladder golf, cornhole, horseshoes, and more). There are bathrooms (again, clean and well maintained) near both playgrounds.

The beach was really nice- sandy and cleaned every morning. The water trampoline with attached launchpad was a hit with kids and adults alike, and the water craft (paddle boats, canoes, kayaks, paddle boards) were easily accessible and fun to try. The main dock is huge with different areas to sit at while watching the boats come and go, or catching up on a good book. If you prefer a quieter launch, there are many small docks available for certain cabins.

There are bikes available to use around the campground. A sauna available for adults in the evenings (by appointment so you're not getting cozy with the rest of the resort). The office has movies, games, and puzzles for a rainy day.

While we didn't use the fish house, it looked nice and didn't smell. No wafting fish aromas here, which we've experienced at other resorts.

The stars at night are magnificent. Being north has its advantages and this is a big one. Do yourself a favor and head out on the dock after nightfall to watch for falling stars, satellites, the Northern Lights, etc. Absolutely stunning.

Cabin O' Pines is a great place to take the family. We definitely recommend it!
