In the evening, relax with your favourite drink and enjoy the sounds of wildlife around you. In less perfect weather you will find many board games at the cabin or just curl up with a book by a large window on the main floor.

2 nights at A cozy cabin for wilderness escape
Good spot. Very private and quiet. Camp and cabins were well kept. Camp was well stocked with chairs, tables, bbq's. Solar lights in cabins were a bonus. We would have brought less gear if we knew how well stocked it was. The lake is not for fishing. We'd book again knowing what we're getting.
