    Brandy Old Fashioned

    Nice place. Came in with family of 6, immediately seated and had games to play to pass time. Service was fantastic and our waitress was so kind and patient. Saturday specials were ribs and chicken, which multiple people ordered and enjoyed. Simple, well-seasoned food. Old Fashioned was also great. Family was very pleased and would go back again if ever in area. As we were winding down, place started to really hop and have a great ambiance.

    Fabulous classic northern Wisconsin place. We started with an appetizer of delicious homemade fried pickles to go with our drinks - a local beer and the local cocktail: a brandy old-fashionedand a burger with a stuffed and fried jalapeño popper right on top, finished off with habanero raspberry sauce. Never had such a decadent crazy burger. It was delicious. And it didn't fall apart in the devouring.

    We always stop at the squirrel when we hit the north woods. Great atmosphere, friendly staff and better than average bar food. Start with a brandy old-fashioned sweet. Get the jalapeño popper burger. It's topped with a battered, deep-fried jalapeño stuffed with cheddar and cream cheese. It also has a raspberry habanero sauce which is spicy sweet. The burger comes with fries, but upgrade to the "sweet potater poppers". They are so good.

    We have been trying to come to this place for over a year !!! Weird hours... call before you go. Atmosphere was the typical up north bar. Small bar to sit at. Not much room for dining either. Cozy. Drinks were cold and served quickly. We had other dinner plans, so were unable to eat there. But WOW DID THE FOOD LOOK AND SMELL GREAT. Everything we saw come out of the kitchen looked amazing. The smell of the food was fresh and tantalizing. They have jalapeño poppers the size of your head. For real. Those babies are giant. Will update our review when we get back there. Can't wait !

    Love the nutty Squirrel and the specials. Nice people. Lost my time share up there but I will be back when the NONSENSE blows over. Love my cowboy burger.

    Burger Tuesday!

    I can't say enough good things about this place to start off you must have the avocado soup followed with an appetizer of their famous jalapeño poppers. You must stop in on Tuesdays for burger night, but even better yet is Thursday night. There's an amazing bartender there that takes care of you and they have a nostalgic dish that reminds me of my grandma's cooking, liver and onions is not for everyone but it's for me and they do it the best I've had since my grandma passing I go every Thursday you must come join me

    If you eat there get the chicken pot pie it is to die for. Steak and shrimp is fantastic too. Will be back again next year.

    Broiled haddock!

    Very comfortable with fair priced good meals to serve the north woods. The broasted chicken is very tasty!

    Good chicken, burger and fish. The appetizers are always good. Pretty crowded in the summer. Worth the wait.

    The group that I've gone fishing with the last couple of years have been coming here for the last…read more10-15 years. This in my second time here with this group and the new owners running it, and will be our last. One big issue was, there weren't enough boat slips for all the patrons who brought boats! When we arrived on Sunday, we had 3 boats in our party, Nick (Manager) said that there wouldn't be an issue because they were putting in more slips (piers) on Tuesday. Well, that didn't happen because of the Duck Lice and the guys got "Lake Itch." Speaking with a couple of previous resort owners, those should have been in April/May before the Duck Lice came in season. With the boat slips, fisherman gentleman's agreement, when you go out on the water, you leave your tie lines on the pier, designating your spot, when we went out for the day, we came back and someone had taken our spot. It wasn't a serious altercation but words were exchanged. Should never have gotten to that if the piers were installed. There were not enough slips for all those who brought boats. The cabins are not quite suited for 4 adults. The cabins we stayed were 2 bedrooms. One bedroom had a queen bed and the other had 2 bunk beds, one of which were built in the size of the catacombs', barely room for a full-size adult. Because of the bunks, one of our guys slept on a cot he brought. There is no AC or ceiling fans fortunately we brought our own fans. It did get warm in the cabins. The bathtubs had good pressure but a very slippery bottom. They did supply towels which were a plus, some resorts of this nature do not. Ownership requires that everything be cleaned (kitchen) and tenants will remove all bed linens and towels and place in the sacks supplied. I have stayed in quite a few hotels during the pandemic and NEVER was I required to take down my own linens. Obviously, there is lack of qualified maid staff that the renters are required to clean the kitchen. When we arrived, some of the dishes on the shelf were dirty, dirty flatware put away as well as a frying pan. The deck which these cabins shared had some soft boards which could be a safety issue as well as a railing on one side that was ready to fall over. We made note amongst ourselves to stay clear. The grills were dirty and not in the best shape. When we arrived on Sunday, the garbage and recycling were full. On Wednesday, only the recycling was taken. Wasn't until Saturday that both gondolas were emptied. On the plus side the POV store was open this year and I was impressed with the basics available for sale and at fair price...but nobody was minding the store. We wanted a couple items and had to call to get someone so we could pay. I didn't review last year because their ownership was in its infancy and there were requests by the owner that we thought were unorthodox but related to Covid. It seems like not much has changed, except last year, all the piers were in when we arrived. The guys that have been coming here for years said this was much better before when Tom owned and ran. We all agreed that this was our last stay here, not to return.

    Spent some time this summer at Coady's Point of View and stayed in an awesome 1940's-50's RV. Had a…read moregreat time fishing and enjoying the great outdoors. The owners helped us out a lot with finding good fishing spots and great, all so Wisconsony, supper clubs. Looking forward to coming back soon.
