Top Shell Lake Hotel Reviews

Cobblestone Inn & Suites - Barron

8/10 Good

"All I remember was that I wanted to use the pool and it seemed like the same group was using it every time I checked to see if it wasn't full of kids giving me a headache. I just wanted to bob in peace. There was nothing exceptionally different about this hotel. I felt rested when I left in the morning."

Best Western Spooner Riverplace

10/10 Excellent

"The room was clean and quiet. Staff were super friendly. Location was convenient."

AmericInn by Wyndham Rice Lake

8/10 Good

"It’s a very nice hotel for the price. It could use a little updating in the rooms. It’s clean, friendly employees, great location. A restaurant in the parking lot, another right next door and one down the block. Joust a couple of miles from the downtown area. Pool and Hot tub were nice."

Super 8 by Wyndham Rice Lake

10/10 Excellent

"Good night's rest."

Best Western Northwoods Lodge

8/10 Good

"Staff was very courteous and attentive. It was a nice relaxing environment."

Shell Lake Lodge, a Travelodge by Wyndham

8/10 Good

"Room lights too dim, especially in the bathroom area. Otherwise very good overall."

The Castle on Lake Montanis - Indoor Pool & Arcade House

10/10 Excellent

"This place is absolutely wonderful! It has everything that we were looking for in a family get away. Swimming, boating, fishing, arcade gaming, grilling, card games at the kitchen table, and a pool table! It is nice and secluded for privacy. Yet has a beautiful view of the lake from the kitchen table and is convenient to town. The host was very accommodating. The bedrooms and bathrooms were clean and comfortable. The only thing that could have been better is the refrigerator wasn't clean. I'm guessing that it was just an oversight because the rest of the place was very clean."

Waterfront Cabin On Pristine Shell Lake

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great stay at the lake house! The beach is beautiful and the house is well accommodated. Highly recommend staying here, our family will definitely be coming back!"

Amazingly comfortable and secluded Northwoods getaway

10/10 Excellent

"Such a peaceful, beautiful place. If you are looking to relax and get away from the hustle, this is a great place. The dock needs to be replaced. This wasn’t a deal breaker for us but some may be disappointed. We loved everything about this place and hope to go back again."
