    friendly atmosphere
    creepy incidents

    Had an awesome time with friends! We visited Bruemmer Park and Zoo, which were fantastic! The atmosphere was super relaxed, and we enjoyed delicious food at reasonable prices. The staff even offered to store our bikes safely. Definitely recommended for a fun trip with pals.

    One of my friends mentioned some creepy incidents during the night, hearing strange noises. It definitely made us a bit uneasy, but we managed to brush it off and still had a good time.

    Quirky charm in a historic setting

    My recent stay was quite memorable, thanks to the unique character of the hotel and the delightful staff. The spacious room provided a lovely view of the lake and was very comfortable, making it a great retreat after a day of exploring. However, the breakfast could use some improvement, as options were limited and lacking in variety. Overall, it was an interesting experience with a rustic charm that many might appreciate.

    The charm of this historic hotel is undeniable, with friendly staff and clean rooms. A few minor issues, like some cobwebs and a lack of amenities in the room, were noticeable. Still, enjoying the rustic ambiance and the lively bar atmosphere made for an enjoyable stay.

    hot tub
    beach access
    bathroom cleanliness

    I had a cozy time enjoying the hot tub and the peaceful beach access while relaxing after a long day. The vibe was nice, but the bathroom could’ve used a good scrub. Overall, it was a fun getaway and I’d recommend bringing your own snacks if you’re picky about food! 😊

    local treats
    fresh catches
    harbor views
    creepy vibes
    haunted house

    Kewaunee's got some gems! The nearby Wakker Cheese was a must-visit for delicious local treats, and Lafond's Fish Market served up some fresh catches that blew our taste buds away. Plus, harbor views were a nice touch too.

    Creepy vibes all around! Picture this, climbing dark stairs to a room that felt more like a haunted house. Loose carpeting, half-closed rooms, and a breakfast spread that made me gag—it was more strange than charming.

    cozy lobby
    friendly staff
    unclean room

    Staying at the hotel brought back memories, especially visiting Bruemmer Park and Zoo with my whole family. The cozy lobby, warmed by a fire, made it a delightful place to unwind after a day of exploration.

    In my wife’s opinion, we really wished for a cleaner room for the kids to play in.

    dirty room

    Location, location, location

    Honestly, this place was a bit rough around the edges. The room had a weird smell and was super hot since the AC wasn't on. The mattress was so lumpy we felt like we were rolling off. At least the coffee shop nearby was a win. Just wish cleaning was more of a priority.
