Top Bates Lake Hotel Reviews

Clean & Cozy • Private Hot Tub • Sleeps 9 • <10min Walk to Ski Brule

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great stay and were so thankful we were able to bringing our pups. It’s difficult to find dog-friendly accommodations and this place was perfect. The tiny humans had a great time too, rooms on every level to keep the interruptions of nap schedules to a minimum. Hot tub was lovely and fun towns within an hour of the cabin to explore when you want to get out of the house."

Riverside Retreat - Cozy Cabin #2

10/10 Excellent

"Love staying at the cabin, my second visit and I'll be back soon.Was so relaxing walking the trails with my dogs, very peaceful. Had everything you need and Iron River is 10 minutes away if you desire groceries, ice, adult libations or laundry. Wifi was appreciated so I could watch IMCA 141 race Saturday night Brian is very quick to respond if you have questions!!"

Private Lake House on 16 +/- wooded acres, 80 + acre lake, 55 foot deep!!

10/10 Excellent

"The cabin was exactly as we hoped. Having the Jon boats with motors charged for fishing was great. Caught northern, crappie, and blue gill, which made for a great fish fry. The lake was clean and we were able to get out on floatie and enjoy the water. Jerry was an excellent host and was in contact whenever we reached out, he even allowed us to stay a bit longer on checkout day as we didn’t have to catch a flight until later so we were able to relax and take our time. We ensured to clean the cabin really well as we were very appreciative of his flexibility. Overall, great stay and will stay again."
