You walk in and it's Northwoods perfection straight from the 90s. I loved the vibe immediately. The…read moreroom was clean, bed and pillows were very comfy. Where i was extremely disappointed was - there was a baseball tournament going on and the entire team apparently was staying here at the time... the noise volume was 10/10. All. Night. Long. For two nights. Doors slamming, screaming and yelling from adjacent neighbors. Very very very annoying. Walls were paper thin. The complimentary breakfest consisted of milk cartons, dry cereal, packaged donuts and uncrustables. I think had the noise level been better our stay would have been different. Cute place overall.

We liked the rustic timbers on the walls and the beds were very comfortable. The large patio door allowed for an excellent view of the pines and the hot tub and pool were just a short walk down the hallway. This was especially nice after a day in the snow. Nice pool and shower facilities complement the pool area. We'll be back!

The resort itself consists of various sizes of cabins, including our favorite ones overlooking the lake. There's fishing... There's tons of *outdoor* games for the kids... There's sooooo much more. HOWEVER... They all pale by comparison to the MEALS! That's what I said... the amazing meals... from the "Baker's Surprise" at breakfast... to the delisicious selection of courses for evening meals. Too much to put down here. We've been coming up here for over 40 years! Karen and Gerry May, 2022

Notified desk. No alternative room offered. On two consecutive days, two different maintenance staff unable to repair; needed replacement, none available. Was working with a local realtor one morning at this unit's kitchen table when a person without knocking ENTERED ROOM, then, quickly left without a word. Numerous front desk visits and two phone calls by me after checkout over a two week period, found General Manager, Mr. B..., unavailable. On 9/4/2025, I received a return phone call from General Manager. Was told he and an Asst. Manager found lock on door of said unit operable and working. During my four night stay in the one bedroom unit nearing $400 per night for room and attached room fees with an inoperable interior security door lock, I was credited $25 per night ($100 total). I expressed compensation was inadequate. General Manager said he would look at interior lock again. If still inoperable, he would reconsider additional compensation. I requested a call back on his findings. Will add to this post at that time. (Note: This was my third stay at this resort over a fourteen month period.)

The room was substandard. The door in-between the room had no lock on it. I kept expecting the neighbors to come barging in. There was a lightbulb out above the sink, which wasn't in the bathroom, and the air conditioner looked as if it had caught fire (we were scared to use it). The toilet ran unless you giggled the handle. The light in between the beds was not working, it was in a switch on the wall, which seem to have a short in it. It was on a main road so we heard a lot of traffic all night. The only thing good about this room, was the sheets appeared clean.

Chanticleer Beer garden... Disappointed We've been coming…read morefor 20+ years every time we're up in Eagle River. We make sure we stop in for beer and bratwurst off our pontoon boat. Yesterday was so disappointing. I don't think we're coming back. Several things . We were the only ones there at 11:30. We noticed....They have moved the grill from outdoors to indoors, which creates a huge timeline lag , from when you order to when you receive your food. We ordered six bratwurst, an order of chicken strips, chips, that's good tots, beer. The Brats were long and narrow( not plump and juicy). They were overcooked, super dry, and no flavor. The only thing good were the onions and mustard. But for 90$ worth of food ... the value killed the ambience. Our order took over 20 minutes to receive, hey we're on vacation and while the time wasn't terrible, but we were surprised as they were not busy. Things change over the years and the food quality this year is poor. Eat at your own risk.
