My family and I have been coming here for over 25 years. This year, we decided to rent 2 cabins to…read moreaccommodate everyone. That is over $1700 we paid for the week, no big deal. On our second day, the septic system started backing up into the shower when my fiancé was showering. When we went to tell the owners, it was like they were just waiting for us to tell them. They weren't surprised, they did not apologize. They told us we'd have to switch to another cabin, this one at LEAST 30 years older than the cabin we had chosen (which is why we chose the newer cabin, obviously). We declined. We said we would use that bathroom and the bathroom of my parents cabin (up a very steep hill) until they could get ours fixed. No one ever came to fix it. We spent the entire week walking to a different cabin to use the restroom and to shower. Even washing the dishes had to be done in a way so that the septic wouldn't back up into the kitchen sink! When it came to the end of our stay and it was time to pay, we expected them to offer us a discount at least. That didn't happen. When we asked for one, one of the owners became extremely hostile. She said she offered us a different cabin and we declined, so we should pay full price! We explained the cabin offered as a replacement was in no way comparable to the one we had reserved and put a deposit on more than SIX months previously. She was extremely rude and told us they'd give us $100 off "take it or leave it". It's heartbreaking that after 25 years, we'd be treated so poorly. Alas, we won't be continuing our tradition of coming to this place.

Absolutely beautiful. I spent a week at Big Bear during a Boulder Junction trip several years ago…read moreand it's part of one of my favorite vacations ever. They have a few options here in terms of size and price, but the main area is easily accessible from everywhere. Even though it's just a short distance from town, you feel like you're way out in the woods. Our cabin was clean and comfortable, with a couple different sleeping areas, a full kitchen, fridge, etc. I brought home a day's fishing catch and cooked it up right there. If you come with a larger group they have central fire pits and grilling areas and a couple big party shelters protected from the rain. They have WiFi throughout the property, which you'll probably need as I had no cell service up here. There was a baby deer on the property whose mother came by periodically to check. There's a sauna and a barn with bikes for everyone to use. Super peaceful and relaxing vacation.

And not only were the aesthetics amazing, but the cabin was immaculately clean and so comfortable! My bed was very comfortable and the furnishings in general allowed for real relaxation. We enjoy going out to eat and antiquing and other activities when visiting the North Woods, but both my daughter and I said it would not have been a tragedy if we would have had to spend more time indoors, due to weather. Just a great experience!

There is a list a mile long of what you can't do, and the "management company" at check in threatens they don't want "bad renters". They are short staffed on cleaning people, and nickel and dime you for your security deposit to pay for them to "clean" the cabin. We took sheets off the beds, swept the entire cabin, and left what we thought was left it in pretty good condition for them to clean the rest. Boy were we wrong!! It's unfortunate as we had been coming to Lofty Pines for years. With the new management we will never be back. Steve especially has issues about making sure it's known he is the boss, and definitely takes it out on renters. Just not very vacation friendly.

This is a great, quaint, classic Northwoods lodge. We took our two young boys for a week with…read moreextended family and booked the Vista cabin in the main lodge. The accommodations, while a bit dated, were clean, comfortable and had everything that we wanted. Walkout access to a great beach where we could watch the two young boys play from our kitchen window. Very shallow, sandy bottom that was perfect for swimming. We spent a few nights by the campfire on the beach and I caught a nice largemouth right off the pier. Excellent bike and running trails were immediately accessible from teh cabin, and decent food was a short walk away at Fibbers. The owner, Jim, was very friendly and accommodating without being intrusive. All in all, a great, memorable vacation for the family. We will definitely be back next year.

The owner is great to work with, the cabin is always clean which you don't always get with up north rentals, there is plenty of space for our large group and tons of amenities including great wifi, awesome view of the flowage from the large deck and a newly remodeled kitchen. I would recommend this lodge to anyone looking for the up north experience in a large space with all the comforts of home.

The lodge itself was spacious and comfortable but well worn. If you require cell phone or internet do not stay here. The TV has about 8 channels that are watchable about 25% of the time.
