Here's your Ultimate Cuyuna Cabin Packing Checklist:

Bike + Helmet

If you’re in Cuyuna, the trails are calling. Bring your own bike + helmet so you can take advantage of the area’s premiere riding right from your cabin door. If you don’t own these essentials, you can rent them at Red Raven or Cykel in Ironton.

Swimsuit

Between all the lakes of the area, and the hot tub at Sunny Point, you’ll want to have your swimsuit ready for a dip at any time.

Sunscreen + Bug Spray 

The sun can be strong and the bugs persistent, so packing both ensures you can enjoy your time outdoors without any discomfort.

Bluetooth Speaker 

For background music during meals, outdoor games, time by the fire, or while relaxing on the deck, a portable speaker is a simple way to enhance your stay.

Hiking or Trail Shoes

Comfortable, durable shoes are a must for exploring the many hiking + biking trails, as well as other outdoor activities in the area.

Lounge Clothes 

Pack comfortable clothing for slow mornings, reading + relaxing in the cabin, and evenings spent by the firepit. 

Daypack + Water Bottle 

Bring a small backpack to carry water, snacks, and any other essentials during your outdoor adventures. Staying hydrated is key while you’re on the move in the summer sun. 

Travel Mug for Wine or Coffee

Enjoy your favorite drink in the morning or evening, whether you’re on a morning walk, or are sitting by the fire outside enjoying the stars, a travel mug is essential to elevate the whole experience. 

Slippers or Cozy Socks

After a day on the trails or out on the water, there’s nothing better than slipping into something soft and warm. A good pair of slippers or thick socks will keep you comfortable while you relax at the cabin.
