The cabins are wonderful & spacious. The resort has a playground for the kids & a pool, let alone, is right on Manistique Lk.

Simply one of the best air b&b setups for snowmobiling we have ever found. All the little things are correct: tile entryway (and throughout), very respectable kitchen setup, five beds and two futons, washer and dryer, and a legit boiler room which I never knew we’d want until you have to dry gear overnight. Fireplace and shared hot tub/pool are nice bonuses as well. We had sled with a dead battery and were offered tools and use of a garage. Talk about accommodating. Only negative I can think of is the cabin is a bit drafty and obviously under insulated. Probably would never notice but we are experiencing one heck of a cold snap and getting the indoor temp to raise takes longer than one would otherwise expect. Still gets the job done though. Very reasonably priced, all things considered, which is nice in this economy.

Very nice place! It was cold when we visited but we still jumped in the lake. Warmed up in the hot tub, but no towels in the pool building. Bring towels from your cabin. Also no laundry soap so bring some.

We stay here every July this will be our fourth year! It’s great for us we have a large family and get a number of cabins. They come fully equipped with everything you need. They also sell firewood on site. They have an indoor pool and hot tub which is great when it rains or it’s too cold. There is always something to do!

Great place to stay. My family stayed for a week and had a great time. Pool wasn't heated as advertised but was still a great time! Location was perfect for sunsets as well!

Pine Bluff is an excellent family resort, held back from 5 stars by some relatively minor nitpicks. The price and amenities of the cabins are really spectacular. The cabins are comfy and well stocked. The beds are comfy (be warned, I'm 6'5" and didn't fit lengthwise on the beds that had a frame at the foot of the bed). The green space between the cabins is very well maintained and provided an excellent space for a large family gathering for games, bonfires, kids running around, cooking. Outdoor pools and indoor pool with hot tub is a nice perk. If you're hosting some kind of large event with multiple cabins for families with shared outdoor space (family reunion, church camping, etc) then Pine Bluff is an excellent choice. Now, the nitpicks. No AC for the cabins and in the summer it can be very hot. Wi-Fi is very inconsistent and spotty, would not suffice for streaming or work calls/teams. Smoke alarms in the cabins are cheap and go off often and loudly, sometimes seemingly at random at 4 in the morning which, with a toddler, was a pretty major hassle. The beach is pretty small and rocky. And I know it's the UP but the bugs are insane: ticks, mosquitoes, gnats, horseflies, mayflies, bees, wasps, you name it. They're abundant and everywhere. Bring more bug spray than you think you need. Be prepared for kids to get stung and check animals and children for ticks.

My family and I rented two cabins back in May. The cabins were very spacious for all of us and clean. The grounds over looking the lake were lovely and well groomed. I ended up leaving my walking poles and they were nice enough to send them to me. Thanks for a fun time!!!

We have booked our first ice fishing trip here for January of 2025. The service from the staff has been great. Location looks amazing. My son, and my buddy are excited to enjoy some fishing and relaxation here for a week.
