Great time a the Northwoods.

My family and and I stayed at Northern Memories. We had a wonderful time. The place is great! We had fun everyday on the lake with the pontoon boat. We caught many fish, blue gills, perch, bass, northern and walleye. Jessica was great to work with too! We would love to come back and stay there again sometime.

About the host

Hosted by Jessica

Host profile image
This property is a dream come true for us! For years we have wanted a place in the Northwoods to call our own and start to make memories at but equally as much we want to share it with others who can take some time to step away from the craziness of life and slow down... Relax..... and fall in love with "Gods Country".
From the bottom of our hearts we want nothing more than for you to enjoy yourself.... its our goal to every year add more amenities to make your stay even better.

Thank you for your patronage and consideration
