Grand Pines Resort & Motel

I have been traveling to Hayward for years. This place used to be great. For whatever reason, maybe more individual cabin ownership, not sure it has really gone downhill. The quality and cleanliness of the cabins is bad. I stayed in cabin 11 last fall. The cabin porch had never been cleaned off or swept free of any debris or leaves for what looked like months. The cabin screen door, had no handle, the had put a rag in the hole to serve to open and close the door!

We went to the bar only. So not responding to questions about the rooms. Lovely lake view!

We just returned from a great week in cabin 1. The cabin is charming and has the cozy up North feel. The view of the lake from the front room is beautiful! The beds were very comfortable. Loved the fireplace as it is getting cold at night. The kitchen had everything we needed and we enjoyed cooking in a lot of the nights. We appreciated the COVID precautions in place with all the linens. |We had such a nice time and hope we can get back up to Hayward soon!

I've been to this resort 3 times l, and have had a great experience every time! The cabins are always clean and neat! Love the decor used in each of them with their own touch if nostalgic artifacts. Having access to the pontoon during your stay is also a bonus as you can just take it out as you like without having to set a schedule. Would be nice if you could travel between big and little round with the pontoon.

The cabin was nice and clean and in a good location. It fit our needs very well. The ice fishing rental (not through the resort) was substandard. The "guide" didn't have the shack ready for us the first day, the generator didn't work the first day and he didn't check on us once while we were fishing. Fishing wasn't good but that's fishing.
