I would suggest that everybody who hasn't been to the Porkies, go there right away. I spent 3 nights there last spring, in a different cabin each night. I stayed in Speakers and Buckshot cabins on Lake Superior, and it's a great opportunity to own a piece of paradise, if only for one day. The cabins cost about $60 a night. There's no electricity, and each cabin comes with a wood burning stove and a saw. They have pots and pans and utinsels so you don't have to haul that stuff in. They have from 2-8 bunks with mattresses. Each cabin has a little diary where the renters post comments and tell stories of their stays. The pit toilets are a luxury considering where you are!
Campfires, deer, bears, hikes through beautiful woodlands. The porkies has it all, and you don't have to sleep in a tent! My personal favorite was the Section 17 cabin. Very secluded with a short 1.5 mile hike along a beautiful stream in beautiful old growth cedar.
