The Reviews

1. Minnesota Literature

"Although members of the Kobe family wanted to name their new Northwoods resort The Back of Beyond, wiser heads prevailed and left history with the more optimistic Buena Vista. Susanne Kobe Schuler writes an entertaining and moving account of family life at the resort...(Her) stories ...bring back a bygone lifestyle with loving vividness."

2. Lake County News-Chronicle

"The story is full of colorful details...It allows the reader to laugh at childish pranks, to see a parent's worry..., to get a glimpse of a time when "toys" were what was found at hand and Nature was the best companion...The cover alone is irresistible..."

3. Lake Superior Magazine

"This is not so much a book as a time capsule filled with days from a pleasant past...There is no overriding plot or conclusion. The book is, like life, a collection of pearls strung together to create a completed necklace...This book shows that it doesn't take a drama or a trauma to make a good tale worth reading. Simple and good times are worth saving and savoring."
