Tucked beneath fragrant, towering pines and along Cass Lake, some of these roomy sites are right on the water with stellar sunset views and beaches. If you have a boat, motor out to Star Island and visit Lake Windigo, a lake within a lake. Pedal along bike trails and join a naturalist program at the historic forest lodge. 15899 Norway Beach Rd. SW., Cass Lake; 1-218-335-8600; fs.usda.gov
