"Came up to Crosslake for two nights for a nearby wedding. With weather pushing into the 90s it was nice to have a small AC retreat close to town square. There are walking paths to almost everything nearby. Pool and hot tub were a but warm for the heat, but are likely amazing in the shoulder seasons and winter. We especially enjoyed the Loon Fest, Cross Lake Recreation Area beach, and CrossWoods golf course. Excited to come back and "cross" other activities off our list. Great value for North...
