I give high marks to Brock and Michelle, the owners, for always being on-hand and available should you need anything! I think we ran into Brock every day we were there. The cabin, pontoon, and grounds were very clean. There was a nice picnic area where we could all meet up for dinner, drinks and a bonfire. We had a great time and will be back next year.

Since my last review my family has grown and now my toddlers (2 and 3 years older) are along for the week. We have spent each day fishing, going down to the beach, visiting with Helen - the amazing lady that owns Stone Hill Resort - and playing on the playground with the children. The beach and sandy entry to the lake is AWESOME for the kids and the shape and turn of the dock makes a natural swimming area that has a max depth of about 16" making it a PERFECT way to introduce the toddlers to the lake and swimming in it (while you can keep them in an area that is fairly controlled for safety). Stone Hill has a pontoon boat that you can rent for the week (well worth it and SIGNIFICANTLY cheaper than the in-town rental options). Each cabin unit comes with an aluminum fishing boat. Since I last reviewed Stone Hill they have added direct tv and wifi. It is done in a nice way with nothing rustic being taken away but instead supplemented with these additions. This is the singe BEST vacation rental option in northern Wisconsin, still a slice of old Hayward, WI Resort history and an amazing 5 star experience every time I come.

I was pleasantly surprised by this resort. There are two cabins facing southward lakefront - the…read morelake view cabin is the one we had which is lower and further up the road. It was a nice two story with an upper double double bed loft and radiant heat in the floor on the main level. The kitchen was a nice size, and a brand new 32" HD TV in case you would actually watch TV. We were there for a weekend in January so we did not take advantage of the nice sized outdoor deck; rather, we watched the ice fishermen from our big sliding glass door. I was a little worried that the furnishings would be old ala the land that time forgot, but they were better than expected. The owners are really accomodating and easy to work with. There is also a little bar and grill up the road which I will also YELP about. The cabins are among a motor home "permanent" campground which was not too busy when we were there but is probably busy in the summer.

We stayed for two nights in one of the cozy Escape Tiny Houses and loved it! The screen porch was the perfect place to relax, enjoy a cup of coffee, read a book and be surrounded by nature in pure comfort and without the bugs ;). Everything exceeded our expectations including the magical, organic garden full of huge, beautiful blooms and vegetables used for the culinary, top-notch meals created and offered on-site! We did 1 dinner at The Inn and 2 meal services delivered to our room (1 breakfast, 1 dinner). It is such a cool concept and feels luxurious to have these fresh meals delivered directly to your cabin at the allotted times. Be sure to order and reserve your meals ahead of time! It's an experience you won't want to miss! The service was amazing as they made everything so easy for us. I loved that we could just text to make arrangements! We also enjoyed in-room massages, where Gentry Massage therapists come to you! It's easier if you contact ahead of time as they need to arrange schedules on their end. We went for a lovely canoe adventure one morning and a short hike for another. It felt like we were in a dream! Everything looks ethereal which added to the relaxation. I can't say enough good things about this place. You have to experience it for yourself! Thank you for the most delightful, special and memorable experience Canoe Bay! We can't wait to come back!

OMG this had to be ONE OF THE WORST places we've EVER stayed at!!!!…read moreFirst and foremost, let me state there was one very nice person there: Kristin. She was very polite and respectful. The rest of them, including the manager named Renee were GOD AWFUL!!!! - First, there was the pre-arrival. Prior to getting there, I called and asked if we could extend our stay. One of the individuals called "Saige" was reluctant to do in the first place!!! Saying phrases like "uhhhh we really don't do stuff like that around here." Really lady? Wow, great attitude to have. When I asked here to call me back after she said she needed to speak with her manager....she NEVER DID!!!!!! I had to call back a few times just to request an update!! When I finally got the answer I needed, she seemed upset by her manager's decision...taking forever to answer me because she was annoyed....and was very rude and tangential in the conversation. It was so bad, I had to tell her to please speed it up and STAY ON TOPIC!!! - Second was the actual arrival. When we got there, the manager Rene was ALSO a bit standoff-ish. She never apologized for Saige's behavior and gave us this vibe that we didn't belong. For instance, when I offered to work out a deal with them that would accommodate them for an additional day's stay, instead of her doing her job and looking into this immediately, she said "let's just reschedule and reevaluate this conversation towards the end of your stay." WOW, REALLY?!?! However wait.........it gets even WORSE....!!!!!! - Third, During arrival. When we got to the suite, we noticed our request for additional items was not already in the room. When I requested those items, it was met with WOEFUL resentment from Rene!! I made the request around 5:30pm-ish......after calling multiple times....our stuff didn't come until almost 10pm!!! Again...WOW, really?!?! But wait....it gets worse..! - Fourth, during the stay. During our stay, although the room was cleaned as requested, we noticed our room only had one robe (after all of the nonsense we went through earlier....did NOT want to experience that again!!!!), the INTERNET absolutely was terrible!! It was worse than dialup internet!!!, there were BUGS EVERYWHERE....it was so bad we noticed RAID Insect Traps in the suite (I kid you not!!) and the phone reception was again GOD AWFUL and DANGEROUS!!! - Fifth the "Phone." GOD FORBID something happened to us in the suite! Oh wait, it did!!! The issues I brought up above.....we had to go to a phone ALL THE WAY to the Reception Building just to call. Several times just to get the stuff in the room, btw!!! Of course Rene was very nonchalant everytime, but seriously....There's NO PHONE in the room...?!?! Not even a landline..?! - Sixth, the food. Ok seriously....this is a Relais de Chateaux establishment, right?! So the guest service was already terrible, the food is THIS BAD as well?!?! During breakfast, our food was so salty we had to THROW AWAY after ONE BITE!!! Lunch was just as bad because the cheese was outdated! My spouse LITERALLY got sick from the grilled cheese. DESPICABLE. However, the worse of the trip is yet to come..... - Seventh, the departure. When I brought up the bug issue, the front desk had the SHEER AUDACITY to say to us,"...we recognise Northwoods Wisconsin is not for everyone." Ok........let's pause for a moment here....what does that even mean?! Are you REALLY saying to your guests that they don't belong there?!?? As a minority, I found that not only out of line, but EXTREMELY DISRESPECTFUL and DISCRIMINATORY!!! Who says that to a guest?! I mentioned that this was supposed to be a Relais de Chateaux and EVERYONE should feel welcomed!!!! We could put up with a lot, but that's where, after everything that preceded, it was time to leave. We requested an early departure (which they told us to do prior to our saying, btw) and got out of there. Ok this had GOT to be THE WORSE RESORT EVER!!!! I wouldn't even call this a resort.....let alone a Relais de Chateaux establishment!!! We URGE you all, please STAY AWAY FROM THIS RESORT!!! NOT RECOMMENDED!!!!!! Between the poor attitudes, customer service, poor food, even poorer internet + phone reception and (speaking of reception) and ABSOLUTELY BIASED and BIGOTED language, Canoe Bay is NOT RECOMMENDED!!!!!! Save the $2000+ for an ACTUAL luxury resort.
