The rustic pine log cabins offer visitors a sense of pioneer lifestyle. The cabins have electricity, a covered porch and basic furnishings. Visitors must provide their own bedding, towels, cooking utensils and other camping items. Cabins are located near the campgrounds so cabin users will have use of the shower and toilet facilities. There are 15 miles of trails for the hiker, snowmobiler, bicycling, cross-country skier and equestrian, with connecting access to many area facilities and scenic overlooks.
Pleasant Creek is also a popular site for organized dog field trials.
The lake is one of the highest quality fishing lakes in the region and is stocked with largemouth bass, crappie, bluegill, channel catfish and tiger muskie. Shoreline fishing has been enhanced by the construction of jetties. Bait is available for sale at the boat house. Pleasant Creek is a relaxing place to spend a day at the beach. The swimming area is located on the north shore.
