Top Mercer Hotel Reviews

Whitecap Mountains Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Very quiet. Out of the way. Clean and confortable."

Davos Chalet

10/10 Excellent

"It was a last minute hotel stay on our trip. Rate was great for summer time stay. Had a nice game room, bikes and kayaks for us to use if we wanted to. Big living room area ( what I would call it) with TV, a kitchen area to use to make your own food. A fire pit, all s'more stuff in a cabinet to use as well. Lake down the hill to go fishing or kayaking. In the winter, big ski slope. Nice deck that goes along the back side with plenty of seating and great view. Met the owner when we were getting ready to leave. Very nice and talked to him for a while. Would go back if in the area and stay a couple days! Nice and quiet! The outside looks like something you would see in Switzerland area. "

Beautiful Lakefront Cabin on PRIVATE Mercer Lake! Endless 4 Season Fun!

10/10 Excellent

"This was our 3rd time staying in the awesome house with our family. The house fit us perfectly! We all had our space/room and we just love it! The bedrooms aren’t particularly big but that didn’t matter because we were only in them to sleep. The beds are super comphy too! The fishing on Mercer Lake was fantastic. We enjoyed the deck area for morning coffee, reading , playing games or just relaxing. We miss the lake view! Doesn’t matter if you’re on the main floor or in the lower level you get a great view of the lake. The kitchen is fully stocked with absolutely everything you’ll need for cooking too. (Our family loves to cook). The lower level was my personal favorite. My room was down there. There’s a kitchenette down there and I set up a mini coffee/tea bar for my husband and I which was perfect for that first morning wake up cup. I set up a puzzle on the table that we all worked on throughout the week. The arcade game was super fun to show our kids we still got it! I think I was top scorer on Galaga! You can go right outside from the lower level which was so convenient and again the view is lovely. We enjoyed the kayaks, paddle boards and of course the boat. Firepit area is large and had plenty of seats for our family. There is easy access to get in the water too. Perfect is you have younger kids because you have a private swim area. We brought our own tubs and enjoyed floating out in the lake which is very clean. We hope to come back again!"

Lake Front 3-bedroom, 2 bath cabin, private pier, perfect fishing and lake life!

8/10 Good

"We enjoyed our stay at this cabin. It was the perfect size for our family. It was well stocked with all the essentials, and it was clean. It does need better serving utensils, so I did add a few to the drawer. There were areas that needed improvement, such as the porch area could be cleaned up and better screens would prevent the bugs from gettin in. It would have been nice to have a kayak or two, and also a fire pit should be added. We opted to buy one and bring it with us. We did have a plumbing issue, but the owner’s family was staying on the premises, and responded very quickly, and solved the problem. All in all, we had a fun time, the weather was perfect and we would stay here again. "

Private on Chain O’Lakes! Huge Kitchen, 2 Living Spaces, Large Cousins Room!

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful, relaxing, fun week up north!Between lazy mornings on the deck, tubing, fishing, yard games, and bonfires, my extended family (3 generations now!) had a wonderful time making memories.The home is spacious and lovely and includes everything you need for a large gathering. The property owners are welcoming, very responsive, and provide lots of information about the property and surrounding area.This is our 2nd time at the property and we will definitely come visit again sometime!"

Stunning 180 degree views from Gresham Retreat's 520 ft of private lakefront

10/10 Excellent

"we could not have enjoyed our stay more. The home was clean and comfortable as well as quiet. Beautiful to look out over the lake. Access to the kayaks made for additional fun for all. We also made use of the pontoon boat for swimming and fishing.We will be sure to book again next summer.Thank you"

Horsehead Lake Retreat (Big Discounts in June Call 414-378-7273)

10/10 Excellent

"This cabin was exactly what I was looking for. Nice lake, no skiers, great deck, good beds, good pier, all the kitchen hardware you could need and just a cute, cozy atmosphere about the whole thing. If I had one negative thing to say it would be that the owner requires you take your garbage with you. I REALLY don’t like added requirements put on me after I get there. Put it in the listing. "

Beautiful Four Bedroom Lake Home In The Heart Of The Northwoods

10/10 Excellent

"There were 4 of us staying there (2 couples). We enjoyed our stay! The kitchen was stocked for our cooking needs. We enjoyed the water craft. The location was great for going on the bike trails in the area. Thank you for opening up your home!"

Fence Lake Retreat w/ dock

6/10 Okay

"Listing was fairly accurate. Except it says no pets and i found lots of what looked to be white dog hair throughout. Grill was unusable. The dock in the pictures are not the same dock. One of the steps down to the dock was broken and hazardous. We had to step over it. And there were no working outdoor lights. We made the best of our stay. Cant beat the location."
