Wonderful Stay!

We stayed at a the Pinecone Retreat over the 4th with a group of friends and had an awesome time. The property had lake access, which was perfect for swimming and relaxing during the day. There was also a bar close by, which made drinks and entertainment super convenient. The whole atmosphere was fun and relaxing, it was a great place to kick back and celebrate the holiday. Additionally Jean was great to communicate with and was a great host! Would definitely come back!!!

About the host

Hosted by Jean Boatman

Host profile image
Jean Boatman, I am a vacation home owner along with my husband Wayne. My husband drives truck and I am an interior decorator/painter. We built and designied this cabin with comfort and up north decor in mind.

Why they chose this property

This home is for our enjoyment now and later when we retire. We had been managing a campground in this resort and love the area. There are so many great places to dine out & shop. We enjoy The Birchwood Cafe and Just Right On Main for dining and shopping. We decided to build when the new lots became available and were first to get the best veiw of the lake.

What makes this property unique

We enjoy the people who come into this area. There is fishing, Atv trails and many nice shopping and entertaining things to do in the area. There is snowmobile trails in the winter and ice fishing or just relaxing in this comfy cabin. I also designed the basement to be either a family game area or it can be transformed into a space for scrapbooking and other crafts for up to 8 people.
