Northwoods Getaway
My husband and I very much enjoyed our stay at Blue Lake Pines in Minocqua! Our check-in was after dark due to traffic heading north on Hwy 51 and earlier sunset times in the fall. We eventually found the right gate, but the drive in was a little bumpy and not very well lit. Additionally, there was little lighting on the way to the door for the Blue Water Cottage, so we needed our headlamps and flashlights to find our way. Once we got inside, we were impressed with the updated suite, full kitchenette, and cute decor. The suite was perfect for a couple's getaway. The accommodations were great - the bed was comfortable, the kitchenette was well stocked with utensils, coffee, and basic cookware. The next morning we were able to explore the grounds. The lake is incredible - quiet, peaceful, and serene. We enjoyed taking in the scenery and sipping our coffee on the docks. While we were up north we went for a nice walk on the Bearskin Trail, visited Minocqua for coffee - which happened to also be Beef-a-Rama weekend, and brought back Minocqua Pizza Company for dinner one night. Overall, it was a relaxing trip in the Northwoods!
