Wow, that looks a bit over the top for fishermen and motor-sports enthusiasts?

Even family summer vacations with a bunch of screaming bratts dragging sand all inside?

My parents used to take us there sledding in the early 80's before we had a place of our own. We'd drag the two John Deere's up there and ride a few days each winter. 

Good times!

I had a t-shirt from there about Jackalope's - would wear it to school and people were so confused :)

 

Anyway, was a great place and great area for us for many years, brings back some great memories.

Lots of snow ( historically  ) in that area. Many early starts there in years past. 

Katrine, Sundridge, etc. 

 

Nice memories of the area .

I remember our last stay there mid 90’s I think.  After supper, I was asked if I wanted a post dinner drink and I responded “yes”, a rusty nail please.  After some time passed, the waiter came back and asked how to make a rusty nail and I gave him the products and suggested quantities.  After a while, he came back to the table carrying a bottle of scotch, a bottle of drambuie and a glass and said, “ do you mind mixing it yourself ?”   Graciously, I agreed and I don’t remember a lot of the rest of that night.
