Fodor's Expert Review Indian Head Resort

This early-20th-century resort, identified by its 100-foot-tall observation tower and its lovely setting overlooking Shadow Lake, offers inexpensive and spacious rooms, making it a good choice for families on a budget. There are plenty of activities for children, including magic shows, ice-cream socials, trout fishing, ice-skating, an indoor pool, and a game room, and parents enjoy listening to live music and comedy shows in the mid-century fabulous Thunderbird Lounge.
