If you are the designated planner for a big family reunion or a multi-family vacation, your search ends right now. This isn't just a cabin; it is the Grand Dame of Timber Bay Lodge!
Here is why this property is the area’s top recommendation for large groups:
Room for the Whole Crew (And Then Some): We are talking about the largest cabin on the property. It comfortably sleeps up to 18 people!

Plus, with 4 full bathrooms, everyone can get ready for the day without a line forming down the hall.
The Ultimate Social Hub: The heart of this home is the Large Great Room. It features a stunning rock fireplace that just screams 'Northwoods cozy'. It is designed as a central gathering spot where your entire group can hang out, play games, or just catch up after a day on the lake.
A Kitchen That Can Handle the Heat: Feeding 18 people is no joke, but this cabin is ready for it. It boasts a Big Kitchen specifically equipped to handle meal prep for large numbers. Whether it's a pancake breakfast or a chili night, you have the space to make it happen without stepping on each other's toes.
Modern Comfort in the Wild: Don't worry, you aren't roughing it too much. You've got heat and air conditioning for year-round comfort, blazing-fast Wi-Fi for those who need to stay connected, and a fully stocked kitchen with all the appliances you need.
