This was such a neat resort. Gift shop, restaurant, tennis, water activities, there was even a wedding ceremony and reception outside by the barn . Horse carriages. So cool. Right on Lake Thompson. It's nestled back in the woods with approximately 30 cabins for rent. Rooms were very nice. Great atmosphere, quite and quaint. Would definitely go back!

Disliked: Amenities
There is no before/after hours key-drop at this facility and no directions given at the time of check-in should the need arise. I called the desk, no answer, no forwarded line. The after-hours number was not answered until the 3rd call. A key drop may come in handy for guests going forward, The restaurant was also closed on the day of my stay - this also would have been nice to know at the time I made the reservation. Thank goodness for Subway,

Great location in the woods by the lake. Central lodge area very convivial. We stayed in a lodge room rather than a cabin which was rather dated and a bit tired with uncomfortable bed. No housekeeping service during 4 night trip which I was not aware would be the case.

Happy accident getting a room for a night when my car died in Rhinelander. Staff couldn't be more welcoming and friendly. Coffee shop and supper club in resort, so not having car was no problem. Shopped for hodags at the cute gift shop and just relaxed with a view of the lawn, trees and shore of the lake. Reliable wifi so I could get some work done too. Everything smells truly clean, not that gross fake smell that makes you think the bed linens got sprayed down instead of washed. Head and shoulders better value for business traveler than the up north chains. i am coming back here for a proper vacation!!

Not very good. Overrated and expensive.

Expensive for the room condition and amenities. A/C was at 54 degrees when I entered the room and could not be adjusted. Staff unplugged the unit because could not be fixed. WiFi did not work anywhere for anyone on the premises. Not a glitch; more like a feature. TV did not work. Finally, I insisted on getting a different room although staff was reluctant.
