Nice place, lots of space inside and out! Well stocked kitchen and lots of toys for the lake. Not a great swimming area but we were able to use floaties. I would definitely stay here again.

We had a wonderful time at this cabin located in the Chippawa National Forest. The only suggestions I would have is to have more lighting throughout the house, especially on the stairways. Also be sure to have enough cooking utensils. Other than that, the cabin was very nice.
