Great place - as advertised
A great, quiet location near everything you need for a quiet weekend or active weekend. Close to Longville, Backus, and Hackensack...or multiple boat launches. Plus, we had access to kayaks to explore the various portages in the area. The cabin itself was great for family time. Plenty of games (pool, ping pong, video golf), and board games made for a great time for three generations of the family. Communication was great throughout the process. We had a great experience all around.
