The community campfire was different but turned out ok. The kids loved playing on the dock and kayaking. The water was shallow. The cottage was nice. Beds were ok. 1 roll of tp didn't last a family of 6, 4 days, but we didn't ask for more just bought some. Bring your own toiletries. Wifi was slow.

Our family of 5 very much enjoyed our fall stay. Pete was very accommodating. Our cabin was well kept and clean upon arrival. The grounds are nicely kept as well. Great location and the fisherman within our family were successful! We will be back for a return stay.

My wife and I took our 3 kids up to the resort for a fall getaway. It was great. The cabins are clean, the hosts were friendly, the area itself was fantastic - lake activities and ORV trails galore. Lewiston really leaned into fall/Halloween, too.

This was a second year in a row coming up from Ohio. We are a large family that’s rents 7 of the cabins on-site with a wide age range of 8 months old to 78 yrs old. The owners have kept the place looking great with improvements from last year. The cabins are perfect for the Up North theme you are looking for. The small town has everything you need from groceries, hardware, ice cream, and a fantast... This was a second year in a row coming up from Ohio.

The cabins are perfect for the Up North theme you are looking for. The small town has everything you need from groceries, hardware, ice cream, and a fantastic little coffee shop. The grounds were well maintained every morning by staff, along with the owners taking such pride in their properties. Looking to come back next year. GP

So far I have no reason to not like this place. My wife just recently started working there and everyday she comes home she is in a good mood and happy and loves her job so far. She said that the rooms are all a different theme and she loves the way they look. I can definitely say that there are no complaints from us. Thank you Twin Lakes Shore Resort for this opportunity.
