Thanks everyone! Spent Friday night up there and took most of the weekend getting it ready. No internet so I was unable to make a reply to the comments.
We're thinking of just keeping it no internet. This way our 12 year old will actually have to get outside and "do" things.

The cameras allow us to view boars and watercraft in the summer but also make sure our bubbler is working in the winter. The heat alarm also lets you know when the heat gets below a desired setting. Worth the investment.

All of this is a great idea. I'm assuming I probably need wifi there then to make all of that work. Hmm... We were thinking of an alarm system (as we have at home, but that was purchased 10 years ago and things have come a long ways now). I wouldn't mind a way to at least turn up the heat before we got there. That would be a nice feature.
