Re: WIA760

Is that a metal roof at the front?  (Not a cabin I recognize.)

The celestial canopy at the fore above the cabin timbers covers it's contents with an impermeable but malleable enfoldment.

I think we're all on the list of people who don't know where this cabin is.

Gives me Brule Station Vibes but doubtful.

Good enough for Canada. Shane has it.



Technically this isn't actually at Brule Station. It is across Brule Lake. The picture shows two of the original out buildings of the Barnett / Kase Cottage on Brule Lake. Also called Pringrove the cottage has an amazing history.

Originally built in 1901 by the Barnett Family. The Barnetts were Lumber Barons involved in founding the mill and village at Brule Lake. In the 30's the cottage was sold to Doctor Edmund Kase. Doc Kase was  famous for taking campers on canoe trips across the park. Also known for offering canoe trippers cold beers from his ice house in the middle of August.

There were two books written by the Kase family about Pringrove. Mary McCormick Pigeon (Jakes Pigeons Mom) also wrote a book about the Town of Brule. The Stringer, McCormick and Bice families either lived, worked or had cottages at Brule Lake. I find the history and location fascinating.

Re: WIA760

Thanks for the backgrounder on this - I am also intrigued by the history of areas within the park. I may need to check out one of those books! Cheers.

Camped on Brule in 2012. A rich history in that area.
