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.

They loved the salad bar and fish fry and we'll go back next week when my cold is over hopefully. Update: I got to go to the Root Cellar this week and I agree with my family; it's a great place to eat and relax!

So all the reviews currently on Yelp appears to be for the restaurant, versus the accommodations…read more Well, I can't help you on the food part but we did stay for 3 nights do here's how the overnight part shakes out: Your experience will depend entirely on your interpretation of "vintage", your need for creature comforts and your tolerance for absurdity. There are cabins for rent if you have a bigger group, but we stayed in the lodge which was built in the 1920's and renovated in the 70's - nothing much has changed since then and they are very open in telling you that staying here is a "step back in time". You can interpret that a lot of ways. What you get for $110/night (off season): * A quiet property just off Hwy 51 * Lots of mature trees, a quiet bay and piers if you have a boat * History - the lodge is still owned by the family that built it. In fact, one of the original owners was the guy that snitched out John Dillinger to the FBI. * Firepits with wood for campfire good times * Clean, very basic rooms * Window AC in summer (as you can see from the photo of our bathrooms, ours was removed but left on the floor) * A restaurant that is open at random days and times in the off season (we never managed to catch it open) * Exciting bathroom adventures - ours was carpeted (!), another had a puffy toilet seat and best of all, the last room had a toilet that flushed only steaming hot water. What you don't get: * A TV (2 of the 3 rooms didn't have them) * Heat - it looks like most rooms have space heaters * Although rooms are advertised as having a fridge 2/3 didn't though one had a microwave(?) * Tons of privacy - our deck was shared with another room and there was only a fairly sheer curtain on our doors Overall, it was just a really interesting experience - staff ranged from awesome to indifferent - YMMV. I think for $110/night off-season you can probably do a LOT better in terms of finding a place with amenities but you certainly will miss out on a true up north old school experience. If you have a good sense of humor, check them out - it might be your jam.
