Cozy North Woods Lodge with Kitchen, Trails & Dog-Friendly Stay

Rooms could be updated. Really should take out the air conditioner in the room as you could feel the cold air coming in.

Stayed here over thirty years ago when it was called Briarwood and offered food and beverage service. Anyway, it was nice return and enjoyed my stay. Nice room so I would definitely return again.

Quiet, good amenities. Great location.

Upon check-in nobody had a clue what was happening. Left me feeling like the whole reservation process was mishandled. After calling a few people off-site (and with different area codes) it got straightened out. I was given zero information about the property, pretty much just handed a key with a number on it and left to my own devices. I did appreciate being let in on the latest gossip from former employees, I assume, and one under investigation. I wish I could have hung out and got the rest of that story… Supposedly there is an indoor pool and hot tub. There was even a print-out with hours available on the front desk. I was not instructed on how to access it. I found it, but it was locked up tight. Management was fairly non-existent during the day. Count on zero support after 4:00pm. A friend checked in to a room down the hall from me a couple of days after I arrived. His room wasn’t even cleaned and ready for him. The pizza box with one dried up slice of pizza in it sitting on the table was a nice touch. So were the dirty towels and used washcloths in the shower. It could have been great, but it wasn’t.
