Jack Pines Resort - Osage

This resort is a hidden gem!! We stayed in the campground and another couple we were with stayed in a cabin. Everyone there extremely friendly and accommodating. We ate supper there the first night and my husband and the other couple we were with are still raving about the duck wings!! The menu was so unique and the drinks menu was amazing....try the campfire cocktail! The grounds are beautiful and even more stunning at night when they are all lit up. They are right in the middle of many many miles of trail systems right off of their grounds....we spent 6 hours on the Smokey Hills State Forest trail system and it was great! The cabins are super cute and very cozy. We used the hot tub and true to it 's name it was HOT!The only suggestion that we would have for them is to update their website as the photos of the grounds and cabins do not do this place justice. Our friends did not know what to expect with the cabin they rented because the pictures were not great, but it EXCEEDED anything they could have expected. Also, on the website it says that the hot tub is coming soon ...need to update that it is there. All in all we WILL be back many times in the future!

Decent buffet for Sundays. We want to thank the staff for accommodating us quickly even though we didn't have reservations for Father's day. the service was excellent!Food drinks: I do think you missed the mark a bit by not having biscuits n gravy for dads day but otherwise the food was decent.

We had a disappointing experience. Hope they do better next time. Our waitress was not well trained, the food wasn't cooked properly (3 entrees and 2 appetizers). The bartender did a great job but the waitress was not timely.Rooms: 5/5

We visited in the fall just after leaf fall and the property was still beautiful and serene with a restaurant that had amazing food and delicious speakeasy craft cocktails. Amazing experience!Rooms: 5/5

What a beautiful resort! Rooms and grounds were very clean! Jacuzzi and sauna were great! Event center had lots of games and things to do! Definitely a place to check out. We plan a return visit in the future. Close to Itasca State Park too. Many water features through the grounds contribute to a peaceful environment. There's a new campground there. And for entertainment, a volleyball court, basketball court, axe throwing, horseshoe pits, grilling area and many walking trails to explore.Nearby activities: Some great golf courses close by to check out.
