Gordon Lodge

Gordon Lodge

10/10 Excellent
"A beautiful location on the lake. We woke up to a beautiful sunrise right out our window over the lake. Trails were really nice to walk. We sat by the fire pit and enjoyed the warmth of the propane fueled flames and the beauty of the night skies. The staff was really friendly and helpful for suggestions in town. Breakfast is in a classy setting and staff serves you your buffet food and cleans tables for you. We received a bottle of wine at check in and would have liked to use the free bikes and kayaks but just didn’t have time. Gorgeous place to enjoy! Definitely recommend. Would be perfect for a wedding setting. Everywhere you look is colorful nature and landscape at Wisconsin’s best."
