We booked a room here for one night because we were going on a motorcycle trip. We booked this yesterday and found out that it is going to rain all weekend so I called immediately to cancel and was informed that I'm not getting my money back. This is absolutely unacceptable and stealing. We are out $90 in 24 hours. read more

We booked a stay at Clay Lake Inn and resorts. Unfortunately, we were unable to utilize this stay as our trip was ruined by three days worth of rain in the forecast. We booked the trip on Sunday and had to cancel on Tuesday. We were out the $90. It would've cost for the one night stay as their policy is no cancellation refunds. If they advertise this on their website, it is in the fine print however, it should be policy that if your trip is canceled due to circumstances beyond your control, you should be refunded. This is equivalent to stealing. read more

very disappointed in our stay, we stayed in room number five in the motel. The beds were full-size not queen. The shower was very small and our TV did not work, especially after we had the owner attempt different remotes the batteries in the TV still did not work. I would not recommend this place for the price. We paid $98 per night for two nights. read more

I'll be cutting off my own nose to spite my face telling you all how WONDERFUL this place is. There will never be room for me again! :) Hosts Steve and Tom are accommodating (oh, pun-pun) and delightful. Not to mention hilarious! All three cottages are warm, cheerful and charming and located below the main lodge/bar/hotel on the shores of pristine Clear Lake. Swimming and fishing is the best you could ask for on this immaculate, private-owned gem. In addition to the cottage rentals they have 6 hotel rooms. Each room is uniquely decorated in "northwoods" style (loons, white-tail deer, fish). If you are a CLEAN-FREAK this is the place for you! Absolutely spotless. At the time of my last visit in 2007, 5 of the 6 units were still 2-room "suites" with kitchenette's. Perfect for small families or couples (sigh...wonderful memories). Their Beachcomber Lounge is a local favorite. It entertains both pool and dart tournaments and offers some of the best home-cooked food in the area. Steve makes and proudly serves the best cheese-cake EVER! Come for the "local flavor", joke-of-the-day, fish tales and just downright good fun. Top-notch accommodations, great food and drink and fun hosts. Could anyone ask for more? read more

When you sit directly in front of the bartender/owner/waiter, waited 45 mins watching him serve everyone else around you even those that just walk in the door and sit down long after you while he deliberately ignores your existence is what sparks this one star rating. I have had bad service before but this one takes the cake. The food is usually good there but this is the third time we've been deliberately ignored. We have never been rude, always tip well and are patient in waiting our turn to be served. Not sure what we did wrong but we will not be going back there again. Extremely disappointed in how we were treated. read more

Hands down the best place in town for pizza, chicken, cheesecake and more. Awesome new cabins as well. Can't forget the hosts, they ROCK!! You will not be disappointed, guaranteed! read more

This is true Northwoods hospitality. Steve and Tom are great hosts! The food is top notch Northwoods bar food with a few uncommon surprises thrown in (Steve's cheesecake for one!!). In the summer you might even be lucky enough to get Tom's homegrown tomatoes on your pizza or sandwich. This place is the real deal. read more

LOVE IT! Best dang cheesecake ever. Great Atmosphere, Great Prices and AMAZING FOOD!

Came in for a fish fry Friday, it was me my husband, and my 1.5 yr old. We ordered two famous fish frys and We waited over an hour to get our food, just told the waitress we will take it to go. Service was very slow, they need more help. It's not a very big place not much for table seating. They need to be more organized. read more

Best fish fry in northern Wisconsin. Tom and Steve are the best! Did I mention the amazing cheesecakes Tom makes. Try them all they are delicious!!! See you there!! read more

Tom and Steve have a great resort. The beautiful cabin was spacious and equipped with everything we needed. We used the BBQ and fire pit after a nice snowshoe walk around the lake. Perfect for snowmobiling as the trail is right across the road. The Beachcombers bar had great food and the staff and locals were very friendly. Steve makes the best cheesecake, so leave room for dessert. I would recommend both the bar and resort. read more
