It was such a fun, unique and refreshing trip to take in the winter. It truly seemed like we were in a real life snowglobe. The resort itself seemed to be about 13 cabins. We were in one that comfortably slept 6 grown adults. We also were able to bring our little pug up with us (For a small additionally fee). The family that runs the resort is as sweet as can be. Very hospitable & has a great resort dog that we saw running around during our time there. The snow had fallen fresh, making it a bit difficult to get out of the drive way but it was plowed in record time. I would of loved to enjoy the back deck of the cabin more (that had an awesome hanging bed!) or been able to have my dog use the dog park - but sadly he was sinking in the snow. The cabin came pretty fully stocked in the kitchen - which was helpful for the meals we were planning. The bathroom/shower was great and had plenty of hot water. Fire wood was abundant for the fireplace within the cabin. And the lake was great to see all snow covered. I hope I get the chance to enjoy this part of the Northwoods in the summer!

Yes, that was me about two weeks…read moreago, frantic and stressed at work and needing a break from the monotony of life and the depressing winter blues. My knight in shining armor came to my rescue, looking up cabins in search for a weekend escape, but somewhere nearby a good ski place. Hello, Black's Cliff. It was about a 5 hour drive from the Chicagoland area. Thanks to some bad driving weather, it was nighttime by the time we arrived. The winding road up to the cabins was scary, especially since it's so secluded that there are no street lights. We finally got there and then were scared because the office was closed. Turns out, the people in charge live right across from the office, so we just called them and they came out and showed us where our cabin was. There is no key, so make sure you leave it unlocked, though you could ask about that if you don't feel comfortable. The cabin was beautiful. Small, but it was just the two of us so we didn't need a ton of space. There are larger cabins for families and two other ones this size (See pics for Wildflower layout). There was a full kitchen with a stove, microwave, dishes, glasses, pots, and pans. All you really need to bring are toiletries, food, and towels. Everything else is supplied. There's a great fireplace in the living room, with wood outside so you can make your fire whenever you please. There is also a neat porch area with a swinging bed, tables, chairs, games, etc that looks out onto the great view of trees and the lake. It was too cold to enjoy it, but it would be great in the warmer months. Be warned, the TV is very small, so you'll have to get closer if you want to watch a movie, or you might be better off watching it on your laptop. Also, there are not a lot of channels, so don't expect that. Though, how much TV will you really be watching when you have the greatness of nature around you? Same goes for the wifi. Our cabin was the furthest from the office, so there was no signal. I did need to send an email while I was away, so I sat on the porch to do it where I got a better, but still weak signal. If you want to use the Internet, you can go into their office where they have a stronger signal, or into town. Our stay was completely relaxing and just what I needed. Downtown Minocqua is not that far away, so you can go in to town when you need something. I'd advise doing your research on places to eat, though, because even though they have a binder of places in town and stuff to do, you really need to figure out what you like ahead of time. Before leaving, you need to clean up after yourself, which isn't hard to do. Sweep, do dishes, pick up your mess, the usual. Dogs are allowed, but there is a small fee and you have to make sure they don't leave any hair behind. I think the offseason price was $120 a night, which seems pretty good considering your view and all the space you get. Just think about the crappy hotels in cities where you don't get nearly the same experience. Last tip: they only take cash and check. Overall, we had a great time and would definitely consider coming back in the warmer months. What a find!

The front of the resort looks amazing. But what's that saying onions have layers. Well the back…read morelooks way different than the front. Like 1st class and 3rd class. My biggest complaint is no plug ins near the bed. Even the lamp was strong across the room to plug in next to the table. The other lamp cord went behind the bed frame that I couldn't move. If you're traveling with a suitcase that is heavy like mine (49 lbs) being on the 2nd floor is a nightmare. No elevator. The young lady at the front desk did offer to help when I asked about an elevator but my suitcase looked bigger than her. But no offering of a 1st floor room. Maybe they were sold out. The kitchen was the weirdest design. All steel or metal. Not really stocked to cook anything unless you brought your own pots and pans. I did call and ask if they had any pots bigger than the 1 cup in the room and they said no. But fridge did have a freezer which was nice. Bed was soft they had a mattress topper on it. My suggestion is only come if you plan to unplug and eat out.
