About this property

1920's John Dillinger's Luxury Glamping Tent - Premium Resort Amenities Incl!

Stay in John Dillinger’s Luxury Tent #12 – a replica of the A-frame tents used in the roaring 20’s and 30’s – and perhaps right here at the resort. It is purported the island right off POV’s shore was owned by Al Capone’s doctor, and goons with tommy guns used to patrol its outer shores. Gangsters frequented these parts to hide out and to smuggle booze to major metros in the Prohibition era. It is a perfect getaway for wannabe gangsters on the lam and is one of the most secluded glamping site of the campgrounds. It is one of our largest campsites – the tent sleeps 4 comfortably and there is space for a 2-person BYO sidecar tent (sleeping 6 total on the campsite).

Decked out with historic photos and memorabilia of Dillinger’s time in the Northwoods in the Prohibition era, it has a view off its porch of the woods – no other campsites. Watch the trees or stars from the covered porch with the firepit aglow. With glamping all the craze, this tent affords for the luxury of real furniture without the prices. Guests get much more than just another shelter in nature; these tent will help you create lifelong memories and a sense of nostalgic adventure. Its fluid lines and natural light creates a feeling of spaciousness, warmth and relaxation.

This luxury tent is outfitted with a queen bed, a full-sized futon, and a kitchen table. Outdoors is home to a charcoal grill, tiki torches, a picnic table, a hammock, and a firepit. There is also a common gas grill station for guests' use (located between campsites 8 and 9). POV has wood swings and hammocks throughout the resort as well. Now included with your rental rate, POV Resort provides Power Stations for each luxury tent – these provide basic electricity for charging phones, laptops, fans, COPD machines, and other low-powered appliances, etc. Ground cover is mulch – no more tracking mud! There is parking for two vehicles with overflow parking available at the bathhouse.

A space heater is also provided (heaters provided in units – bring your own 1 lb propane canisters or buy them in our store – 1 canister should get you through overnight).

PETS: No pets allowed.

Nice stay
We were 4 (a couple and two girls, ages 8 and 15) and we slept comfortably in the tent. The place is very nice and the atmosphere is very friendly and enjoyable.

About the host

NEW OWNERS GENEVIEVE & DARREN
In early 2018, we (Darren and Genevieve Coady) decided to go on a new adventure, take the plunge, and become America's next small business owners buying the resort formerly known as North Twin Lodge. We like to think of ourselves as caretakers of this wonderful resort that has and means so much to so many.

So what led us here? We have had much experience in camping. And we know a lot about vacationing. Darren has run a community center that hosts events, and Genevieve has a background in community planning and economic development. We have a son, Oliver, whom we want to bring up living a good life - knowing hard work but enjoying the relaxation of nature.

Bottom line, we felt it was time to do more to give back to others. Using our collective professional experience - thrown in with a dash of fun - our dream of owning a resort was born. When we found North Twin Lodge we fell in love with its history, its tradition of returning guests, and the lake. In October, 2018 we opened doors and haven't looked back.

As for the name change, Darren's childhood home was named "Coadys' Point of View" as it was on the end point of an overlook. With the resort having a walkway on the lake out to the point on the property, the Coadys' decided to keep the name for their future home.

Come visit the resort and become a part of the Point of View family - we look forward to meeting you and sharing in many memories to come!
