"The breakfast was good-nice selections! I am an early riser and your staff opened the breakfast buffet earlier than scheduled, which was just lovely of her to do so!"

Microtel Inn & Suites by Wyndham Rice Lake

8/10 Good

"Very nice and friendly staff who were obviously working hard to make this a nice place."

Waterfront Cabin On Pristine Shell Lake

8/10 Good

"I spent a week at this rental on Shell Lake. Our host, Kate was very easy to communicate with and I appreciated this. I have never seen a better stocked rental before! The kitchen has everything you need, just put your food in the fridge. It's a very cute and cozy rental. I had 4 grandkids with me on this vacation. They enjoyed the paddle boards so much. They all became very confindent on them. It gave them an opportunity they haven't experienced yet. We all agreed we'd come back again. You won't be disapointed."
