We thoroughly enjoyed our girls getaway at Eagles Nest! We had so much fun and loved the cabin. We spent all of our time on the main level with the cozy fireplace. It was very clean and there was enough room for all 11 of us girls! The location was perfect as it was so close to some of our favorite hiking spots and close to Lake Superior. We had a blast!
