    Spotted Cow by the fire and with a view, what could be better??
    Marie C.

    I went up to Northern Minnesota for the weekend with my boyfriend to go snow-tubing. Well the weekend we choose was apparently not a good one because most resorts were closed because the wind chill was about -13. We were bummed that we made the trip and wouldn't be able to snow-tube until we found Mont Du Lac was still open! There was only one other group snow-tubing and they were not out there for long after we started. We felt bad that the guys were basically only coming out of their warming huts for us but they were really nice about it! They were super friendly, make great conversation, and recommendations too! My boyfriend had a few bad runs because the tubes he choose were broken, they have those sitting with the good tubes for some reason. But the workers were helpful and noticed his bad runs so they told him to get a new tube. After about an hour of tubing we defrosted with some Spotted Cow. They had a nice fire going and couches by a window where you could see the skiers. We had such a good time for our first snow-tubing experience, we plan to come back in the future!

    This place was very well assembled and staffed at the minimum from what I experienced. Tubing was great but needs more of a safety passage or contingent because, waivers is the easiest way out but not always the best explained when a unique incident happens. The trophy lodge was packed and staffed with two bar tenders that was also serving large tables; orders was disarray or wrong. The food was well cooked and had flavor. It was a great time and can't wait to return for the slopes.

    FIVE Stars on the YELP Hiking Walk of Fame for a simple reason: FAMOUS X- COUNTRY SKI RACE and I…read morejust hiked it! Okay, 11 miles of it. First off. Stop by the visitor center in downtown Hayward. They have maps, a topo map, bumper stickers, magnets, shirts, etc. The staff is very helpful and knowledgeable about the Birkie, as they call it. Now to the hiking experience. I started at OO Trailhead. Two mountain bikers were there with me but they were l. The Cambra Trail System and I was on the Birkie. The Birkie "hiking" trail is the actual x-country ski race trail. It's basically a "field" between dense forest. I hike the Birkie RED trail, not BLUE classic trail (unmowed) was literally alone the entire time save the loggers that were clear cutting near Boedecher Rd, one German Shepherd guarding a log trucker, two Cambra mountain Bike Trail maintainers and one snake. It was one of the oddest hikes I've done. In 11 miles there was ONE place to sit down. The Boedecher warming hit which was mid-construction. Other than that it was knee high weeds on the trail. Zero water opportunities. I'm use to that in a drought but not after months of Midwest rain. There was literally no where to get water. I hike with 3 liters so I was good. The Seeley Fire Tower doesn't exist even if the map says "Fire Tower" on it! Scat! Bear scat and what appeared like wolf or coyote scat. Never saw any but that doesn't mean they didn't see me. There was evidence of best because three red box aid stations were demolished from bear claws. I look forward to putting my Birkie sticker on the CRV. #done

    A Blast! Whether you just observe the skiers, or ski yourself, you'll catch the fever! My hometown…read morehas been hosting this event since 1973. It has grown into a world class race. Jessie Diggins called in from the Olympics to wish the skiers well this year. There is nothing more beautiful than the Northwoods of Wisconsin in the winter. Thousands of volunteers are there to help and welcome you. Go, ski, observe!

    We stayed in the resort over several days. Our room was nice. It was decorated with a cabin theme,…read morelots of log furniture, pine and birch tree wall art, and a few moose decor items. Everything was clean. The room came with a fully stocked kitchenette which is nice if you want to do some cooking but we ate out. No stove but there is a hot plate, dishwasher and refrigerator. It's nice to have a couch and TV separate from the bedroom. We golfed at The Legend and The Quarry. They were beautiful courses Fairways and greens were well maintained. Legend was a little less than 5100 from the forward tees which was very fair. Quarry was closer to 5200, so longer and much more narrow. Don't forget to look for the giant bear claw on The Legend. Lots of driving between some holes but enjoy the scenery while you are cruising. Great courses. I struggled to rate this. I loved the golf but the accommodations had some pros and cons. Lodging pros - separate bedroom and living area - kitchenette - close to everything we wanted to do - Two TVs Lodging cons - the shower water never got really hot to that end the jacuzzi in the room was never used because we couldn't get it hot enough to want to sit in it - separate rooms are nice but controlling the temp was hard as air conditioning was in bedroom but thermostat was in living room. There are fans to help but in the end the bedroom was usually very cold - the TV in the bedroom was hit or miss on displaying channels. - WiFi was hit or miss. - rooms are owned by individuals so it's like renting a vrbo. To that end, no housekeeping. Not sure if you could request it. We didn't stay long enough for it to be a major issue.

    I am writing this review as I sit here overlooking the lake from the living room of the cabin…read morethrough the wall to wall row of windows. Every visit to Stone Hill just gets better and better! Since my last review my family has grown and now my toddlers (2 and 3 years older) are along for the week. We have spent each day fishing, going down to the beach, visiting with Helen - the amazing lady that owns Stone Hill Resort - and playing on the playground with the children. The beach and sandy entry to the lake is AWESOME for the kids and the shape and turn of the dock makes a natural swimming area that has a max depth of about 16" making it a PERFECT way to introduce the toddlers to the lake and swimming in it (while you can keep them in an area that is fairly controlled for safety). Stone Hill has a pontoon boat that you can rent for the week (well worth it and SIGNIFICANTLY cheaper than the in-town rental options). Each cabin unit comes with an aluminum fishing boat. Since I last reviewed Stone Hill they have added direct tv and wifi. It is done in a nice way with nothing rustic being taken away but instead supplemented with these additions. This is the singe BEST vacation rental option in northern Wisconsin, still a slice of old Hayward, WI Resort history and an amazing 5 star experience every time I come.

    A really wonderful lakefront resort, with everything you might want. They have free water sport…read morerentals like stand up paddle boards, kayaks and canoes. They also have free bike rentals, a great sand volleyball court, horseshoes, basketball, tennis and pickle ball. And if the lake is warm enough, there is a waterslide in the lake which looked fun. We were here Memorial Day weekend, and the weather was beautiful our first day, so we took out the paddleboards, and that was fun. The weather got chilly quickly, so I didn't have the opportunity to try the rest of the amenities. The pool is currently closed for construction. (There is a nice pool at the YMCA in Grand Rapids which we used one day for a $10 day pass). We stayed in a two bedroom lakefront cabin which was nice, but fairly rustic, and one of the bedrooms had absolutely no storage, (no closet, shelves or dresser). Next time, I think we would stay in the lodge rooms, which are a bit more upscale, with fireplaces, full kitchens, Jacuzzi tub and nicer furnishings. They have a restaurant/bar on site with a an outdoor patio and nice view of the lake, which is convenient. They also have free coffee and muffins in the morning at the front desk and at Otis's.The staff and management were incredibly helpful, friendly and accommodating. I definitely recommend, and look forward to coming here again, hopefully when the weather is a little warmer!
