One of the worst restaurant experiences I've ever had…read more The moment we walked in around 7:30 PM, the owner was screaming at his wife in front of customers and employees. That alone should've been our sign to leave. We ordered two pizzas and waited. And waited. After two hours, we were finally told our order had been forgotten. When one of our friends calmly asked the owner when our food would be made, he completely snapped, went on a rant about how long he's been working, and then told us to F-off He told us to get the F out!! No apology. No accountability. Just pure anger and disrespect. If you can't handle customers, can't manage orders, and can't treat your own family or paying guests with basic decency, you should not be running a restaurant. Absolutely unacceptable behavior. Save your money and eat literally anywhere else.

Timbers Resort is one of those places I almost hate to review because I'd rather keep it quiet for…read moremyself. But they deserve the credit. We had a wonderful stay. The place was immaculately clean. On our way out, we actually met the cleaning lady, and you could tell she really takes pride in what she does. That may not matter as much if you're just up there hunting or fishing with the guys, but if you're going up with family or your wife, I think it matters a lot. The other thing I really liked was the location. Lake Gogebic is a pretty good-sized lake, and wind can make a difference. At Timbers, you have direct access to some protected water, so even if the wind kicks up, you can still get out and fish. With a bait shop and boat rental on site, plus a convenience store just a few minutes away, Timbers checked all my boxes. CJ and I will definitely be back. Thanks for a wonderful stay

Our visit was on 9 June 2025…read more I dined with four adults, and we all loved our food. Ordering the food was quick and efficient, and the cost was reasonable. All of the food arrived hot and delicious at the same time. The Root Cellar is under new management, and the wife and husband team are charming. They came and introduced themselves and talked about their goals to grow a larger customer base. We definitely will return. Finally, the hostess and our waitress were fantastic. The waitress was on top of her game and kept our drinks full.

This seems to be the biggest location around for folks coming to see the Porcupine Mountains…read more(Porkies); the hotel is one of the last things you'll drive past before you enter the park grounds. Check-in was fast and seamless; room was clean and comfortable; proximity to Lake Superior was nice. We enjoyed watching the waves from the little slice of beach the hotel had behind it; there is a also a bonfire pit and quite a few comfy outdoor benches here, as well as some picnic benches nearby for folks wanting to enjoy a picnic outside. As far as restaurant options locally: the hotel is attached to one of the few restaurants in the area, so that was a good fall back on option. We passed on eating there after reading some of the reviews, choosing to go into downtown Ontonagon instead (check out Syl's!) and Antonio's (about 20-30 mins away off of 64 & 28). Again, it's just nice to have the choice nearby if you're tired of driving. Reasons this hotel didn't get a solid 5 star review is: first, the staff are not particular friendly, never greeted us all the times we walked past/obviously had questions. We had to initiate conversation with them. Secondly, although the hotel had signs saying masks are required by state mandate, some staff were not wearing masks, relying on the plexiglass barrier only.

The Lodge is a cozy Northwoods hotel tucked away in Manitowish Waters, a cute town about 30 minutes…read morenorth of Minocqua. Its highly walkable location allows for stopping in at the local grocery store, Dixie's coffee shop, Manny's or the park to get a quick swim in. Although nice and friendly staff, this is a 4-star hotel. We were so excited for our wedding weekend and unfortunately as Bride & Groom, nothing with done to make up feel special for our day. Disappointed after all the planning and having our guests stay together, that the Lodge didn't put in the 5-star service we were expecting. Great hotel if you're looking to check out the area, not great for a special occasion stay.

At first this seemed like a nice place to stay. But our first evening, we heard rodents running…read morearound in the ceiling over our bedroom and they woke me at 5 a.m. The next day, we told the owner and she said "we live in the woods, it's to be expected" and her husband later said it was chipmunks on the roof. When we took our bag of trail mix out of the grocery bag on the counter, there was hole in it chewed up by mice! That was explained the critters we'd heard. Also I took a shower that morning and the water was lukewarm. I sent a text to Kim about the rodents and cold shower and she replied "I'll be right over" (though I texted her back asking to come a bit later as i wasn't dressed). A minute later I heard pounding on the door and an angry Kim walked in and said "If you aren't satisfied here you're welcome to leave." No apology, no offer to improve the situation except to say she'd show me how the shower works (it should be obvious!) but none of the kindness or customer service most hosts show. I asked if she'd consider giving us a discount, she said she'd think about it. Later that afternoon I got a text saying I could get a 100% discount if we packed up our bags and left that day! It was the weekend of the Porkies Music Festival and we didn't want to have to leave the festivaland search for new lodgings, especially since all the lodging would be booked. Avoid this place if you want a peaceful, pleasant stay and a good night's sleep.

The resort is in a great location, 30 minutes to an hour from several waterfalls. Don and Linda were SO welcoming. Lights and heat were on when I got there (3 hours late due to a travel snafu).
