Ignore.

For a long weekend? Yes, you go because you love your husband and it is important to him. We have a camp
like this, too. Go for hikes, swim, go out on the lake in a cheap blow up if the cabin doesn’t have boats, and tent if you want. We have often stay at camp with several families. No tv. Just games, and being outside. Sometimes it can be people who are annoying, that’s life. That’s sharing a space. Plan an activity for just your immediate family each day, so you know you will get a break.

I’m just trying to figure out how the logistics would even work. Where would everyone sleep? It seems like you have been to this cabin many times, have you ever gone with a group this large before?

I think you have to figure out some way to go, so enlist your husband. Maybe he can deal with BIL if that is your biggest issue.

Let husband go alone. Might be a nice break for you and the kids.

If you most go, bring camping tents and camp out. At least you'd have some privacy.

Pee in the woods.

I’d be worried about the heat.

Just wanted to give you virtual hugs OP. This sounds like my worst nightmare. Hope you can get out of going this year!

Rent a nice camper at rvshare.com

You had me at COVID. Hard pass.

Op are you not worried by exposure to the coronavirus?

Why is this hard? He goes by himself. Or he goes for a lot longer, and you go for a day or two. Or you don't go if you're concerned re: health concerns. He goes if he decides. He's an adult. He makes that call for himself.

I love cabins and ponds but that setup positively requires a camper or RV to accommodate. Rent a pop up camper at least?

Even if there wasn't a pandemic, I would never subject myself to this. One family is roughing it but 3 families + MIL? That's 13 people, one tiny bathroom/no shower, 3 bedrooms (2 of which have no doors), 1 living room. That's an anti-vacation.

These sort of conditions are pretty similar to how the migrant workers in Singapore lived where most of their Covid outbreak happened.

An pandemic is the perfect excuse not to go.

OP, you will have to report back on what you decide to do and how it goes.

Op are you worried about the virus at all?
