    Send a text

    Welcome back to The Cabincast! In this episode, we talk with Becca Bartling from the historic Alderwood Resort.  Her family purchased Alderwood Resort in 1988 to honor the family vacation traditions Alderwood has been a part of since the 1930's when the red cabins were built.

    It was such a fun chat about all the adventures, challenges, and thoughtful details that come along with running a Northwoods resort.

    Welcome! We have an incredible show for you today featuring an interview with Marnie O. Mamminga author of Return to Wake Robin. 

    Five generations of Marnie's family have been rejuvenated by times together in Wisconsin's Northwoods.  Return to Wake Robin is a series of evocative remembrances accompanied by a treasure trove of vintage family photos of times spent at Wake Robin, her family's cabin on Big Spider Lake near Hayward, WI

    She recalls a time and experience that will resonate with anyone who spent their summers UP North - or wishes they had.

    You're going to LOVE the story of how she found her cabin, refurbished it, and how she utilizes this special place (it's even featured on the cover of her childrens book).  There's lots of history and a great lesson about being aware of your surroundings and the treasures you can find when you're out and about in the world.
