2009 Lund Boats Catalog Photo Shoot

Lund Boats was back here at the resort again this Spring of 2009 working on the photo shoot for their latest catalog. They also captured quite a bit of video for use in creating their dealer DVD's, website videos and even some clips that will be used for television commercials. Even resort owner Dick Auger, and his grandson Seth Auger, were recruited for some video shots that might possibly be used in a future commercial.

As always, you can click on each photo to view a larger image.

Here are some photos below, and even a video clip...enjoy!

This photo is a little dark, but in the background is the "Tower" boat getting some running shots, and in the foreground is the video crew creating some video clips with the help of resort owner Dick Auger and his grandson Seth Auger!

Another picture of the "Tower" boat taking some running shots.


Lund Boats creating some of their running photo shots with the photographer taking them from the helicopter. It was very interesting to see how all this was done!

This video was taken right out in front of the resort. The video crew was all setup on one of our docks with the boom attached to it. Notice how close the boat gets to the camera crew, as the boom lifts up, creating a stunning end to the running shot!

Lund Boats Catalog Photo Shoot

We have been meaning to post some photos of Lund Boats coming to our resort and doing their photo shoot for their Lund Boats Catalog. These photos below are from their stay here in the Spring of 2008. They were also here in the Spring of 2009 and we will have another blog posting updated here soon with those photos!

Just a quick note on the photos. If you want to see a larger view of each photo, just click on each image.

The new lineup of 2009 Lund boats

This is the boom that was setup on our dock for recording some of the video shots.


Lund Boats used a helicopter for two days for getting some of their running photo shots. This was a lot of fun to watch and experience!


Even Al Lindner stopped out at our resort to try out some of the new models that Lund Boats had to offer. "Mr. Walleye", Gary Roach, was also out here to give some of the new Lund Boats models a spin around Lake Shamineau!

Early Season Walleyes!

Here are a couple of shots of a nice 26" walleye that the son of one of our seasonal campers caught on the Fishing Opener weekend! His Dad caught a 25" walleye the following weekend!

Dish Network in ALL cabins!

We are excited to announce that we have installed Dish Network in ALL the cabins!

A vacation sometimes means getting away from television, but for those who still want the comforts of home, and having access to their normal channel lineup, we now have the Dish Network package available in every cabin starting in the 2009 season!

We hope you enjoy our efforts to continue to make improvements and valued updates to the resort, and as always, welcome any feedback that will help us improve even more!

Thanks for checking in with us!

4/18/08 construction update...

We finally have some new photo updates of the new 4 bedroom deluxe cabin!

We are very close to completing the new cabin and are very excited to show you some photos of our progress. Click on each of the photos below to see a much larger view. As you can see when viewing the photos, we are not 100% complete with the project, but since we are so close, we wanted to give you a feel for how it all came together.

We couldn't be happier with how well this project worked out and we hope you get a good feel for what the cabin looks like with the photos posted below.

For those that have this cabin already booked for the 2008 summer season we think you'll be extremely pleased with not only the warm and comfortable feel of this deluxe northwoods cabin, but also with the absolutely amazing views of the lake from the many window views! The north corner of the living room area has a view from the 2 picture windows that allow you to see the entire Lake Shamineau view, all the way from the sunrise view of the island to the east and all the way back to the sunset view of the west shore!

Enjoy the photos below and call us at 1-888-705-5253 to reserve your stay with us this summer!

We apologize again for the lack of recent updates to our resort blog, but we now have some photo updates to show you! We will post more updates as the construction progress continues.

Just a couple notes on the photos. As always, you can click on each photo to view a larger image. The wide angle view of the 4 bedroom cabin was 'stitched' together using 2 photos. You may notice that the photo doesn't look seamless and this is the result of having to manually stitch the photos together since we don't have a wide angle camera. Hopefully this photo will give you a better feel of the view you'll get from this deluxe 4 bedroom cabin!

Quick update...

Sorry for the lack of recent updates. The windows were just delivered for the new 4 bedroom deluxe cabin. Once those are installed, I will take some new photos and be sure to update the blog with them! All the walls are now framed, and the electrical, heating and air, and plumbing work is all getting started.

One additional note: The new 4 bedroom deluxe cabin will have central air. We also decided, as part of this new construction, to also add central air to cabin numbers 8 and 9, which are the 2 bedroom cabins located right next to the new 4 bedroom!

We now only have a small number of cabins without air conditioning, but will work on adding it to those in the next few years.

Take care,

The Augers

10/3/07 construction update...

The 3 photos above have been posted to give a better idea of the view you'll have in the new 4 bedroom deluxe cabin!

The photos do not reflect any new construction. Since this is a conversion of our existing lodge into the 4 bedroom cabin, we are still in the phase of taking things apart to get ready for construction. The roof trusses that you see in the photos will be removed to make way for new vaulted ceiling trusses. The living room, dining room and kitchen will all have these vaulted ceilings. The combination of the open feel of vaulted ceilings and this amazing view is going to be very exciting to see come together!

Here is a quick summary of each photo:

Top photo: Living room area with a great corner view!

Middle photo: Dining room with a partial kitchen view to the right

Bottom photo: Close-up shot of the great corner view of the living room
