Beautiful area overlooking Lake Superior! Many things to from hiking the many trails close by to cross country skiing and snow shoes which are provided at the main office. Outdoor pool and sauna in the middle of winter is a unique experience that cannot be overlooked. Restaurant on site is fabulous with great food and wonderful staff!

It was a great place to stay. The lake shore grounds were picturesque with restaurants on each end and a boardwalk in between. The dinner and service at the Bluefin Grille were excellent, as was the breakfast at the Coho Cafe.
