I've stayed here a few times over many years. Each time marked improvements from the last visit…read more The owner who has checked me in each time I visit is quite friendly and informative on things to do and the best restaurants in the area. My room this time had new furniture including the bed. I was also impressed with the pillows that were bigger than pillows in other Northwoods motels and cabins I've been to. While the bathroom as been remodeled the shower itself was a bit old. Almost like old concrete. The bathroom I had last time had a new shower. Seems the owner is working though improvements unit by unit. He was painting one unit on my last visit. I wasn't sure to give four or five stars because of the shower being old but many rooms seem complete and the owner has such passion for every inch of the place that I went with five.

The group that I've gone fishing with the last couple of years have been coming here for the last…read more10-15 years. This in my second time here with this group and the new owners running it, and will be our last. One big issue was, there weren't enough boat slips for all the patrons who brought boats! When we arrived on Sunday, we had 3 boats in our party, Nick (Manager) said that there wouldn't be an issue because they were putting in more slips (piers) on Tuesday. Well, that didn't happen because of the Duck Lice and the guys got "Lake Itch." Speaking with a couple of previous resort owners, those should have been in April/May before the Duck Lice came in season. With the boat slips, fisherman gentleman's agreement, when you go out on the water, you leave your tie lines on the pier, designating your spot, when we went out for the day, we came back and someone had taken our spot. It wasn't a serious altercation but words were exchanged. Should never have gotten to that if the piers were installed. There were not enough slips for all those who brought boats. The cabins are not quite suited for 4 adults. The cabins we stayed were 2 bedrooms. One bedroom had a queen bed and the other had 2 bunk beds, one of which were built in the size of the catacombs', barely room for a full-size adult. Because of the bunks, one of our guys slept on a cot he brought. There is no AC or ceiling fans fortunately we brought our own fans. It did get warm in the cabins. The bathtubs had good pressure but a very slippery bottom. They did supply towels which were a plus, some resorts of this nature do not. Ownership requires that everything be cleaned (kitchen) and tenants will remove all bed linens and towels and place in the sacks supplied. I have stayed in quite a few hotels during the pandemic and NEVER was I required to take down my own linens. Obviously, there is lack of qualified maid staff that the renters are required to clean the kitchen. When we arrived, some of the dishes on the shelf were dirty, dirty flatware put away as well as a frying pan. The deck which these cabins shared had some soft boards which could be a safety issue as well as a railing on one side that was ready to fall over. We made note amongst ourselves to stay clear. The grills were dirty and not in the best shape. When we arrived on Sunday, the garbage and recycling were full. On Wednesday, only the recycling was taken. Wasn't until Saturday that both gondolas were emptied. On the plus side the POV store was open this year and I was impressed with the basics available for sale and at fair price...but nobody was minding the store. We wanted a couple items and had to call to get someone so we could pay. I didn't review last year because their ownership was in its infancy and there were requests by the owner that we thought were unorthodox but related to Covid. It seems like not much has changed, except last year, all the piers were in when we arrived. The guys that have been coming here for years said this was much better before when Tom owned and ran. We all agreed that this was our last stay here, not to return.

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.

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.

Stop looking! You have found it!…read more This northern Wisconsin resort has it ALL, and it is ALL A-1 ! The resort itself consists of various sizes of cabins, including our favorite ones overlooking the lake. There's fishing... There's tons of *outdoor* games for the kids... There's sooooo much more. HOWEVER... They all pale by comparison to the MEALS! That's what I said... the amazing meals... from the "Baker's Surprise" at breakfast... to the delisicious selection of courses for evening meals. Too much to put down here. We've been coming up here for over 40 years! Karen and Gerry May, 2022
