“Holiday Acres Resort recalls a classic Northwoods family vacation, situated directly on a lake yet conveniently close to Rhinelander. The resort has a private beach and offers varied lodging including many cabins; some guests have noted that the cabins are rustic. The on-site restaurant and bar are a plus, as is the pet-friendly policy.”
