Photos of the year
I’m pleased to share some of my favorite and most memorable photos from the 2024 cabin season.
It was a year that brought some seasonal anomalies in weather patterns, for sure, including a very rainy spring and early summer followed by drought conditions and above-average temperatures into October.
Cabin upgrades in our 88th season included a new bathroom and covered porch on the Kaksi (No. 2) cabin, along with a new playhouse for the kids, and additional picnic tables and outdoor seating.
New guests and old friends, many pups, and several family reunions all enjoyed the cabins, and made their own memories. To all: thanks for visiting!
41 inch 15 pound northern pike caught May 24, 2024, and the new bathroom in the Kaksi (No. 2) cabin.
Summer blooms, and out of the ordinary lake flooding in June.
Our winning parade float in July, and creative new mug designs from cousin Diane Boyer Malcolm.
Hyypio family reunion fun run to Karvakko’s in August, and new cozy lighting in the Yksi (No. 1) cabin from Cedar Lake Workshop.
Stunning Northern Lights over Otter Lake in October, and a dazzling color season.
