I spent this past weekend up in Eagle River fishing the Bills Musky Club Spring Outing. We stayed at the Wild Eagle Lodge on Duck Lake. www.wildeaglelodge.com
This by far is the best place to stay in the Eagle River area, not only for an event but for any kind of a vacation. They have everything imaginable for a person looking to get away. I would not go anywhere else!
Nestled on the forested edge of the Eagle River Chain of 28 Lakes (the world’s largest inland chain of lakes), is Wild Eagle Lodge, a resort offering an all-encompassing experience of relaxation, luxury, and year-round activities.
As summer comes to the resort, laughter and fun soon follow. Spend days out on the water or enjoying one of the many other activities this season brings, including fishing, golf, or tennis. Your family will also enjoy our indoor pools, private beach, and complimentary boats as well as the many other amenities the resort has to offer. Many of our younger guests enjoy our children’s activity program at Camp-Run-A-Muk.
While nights get cooler and we enter the fall season, the Northwoods becomes a breathtaking tapestry of color. Take in the beauty as you walk through the forests that surround the resort; catch that trophy musky or walleye that abound in its waters; or experience the unique festivals just minutes from the resort.
As winter approaches, snow blankets the northwoods and a layer of ice forms on our lakes, opening a new world of activities. With 500 miles of groomed snowmobile trails directly accessible from the resort, it’s easy to see why Eagle River, WI is the Snowmobile Capital of the WorldŽ. The many lakes offer an unparalleled opportunity to pull that trophy fish through the ice; the resort offers its own snowshoe trail; and also immediate access to superb X-C ski trails that abound in the Eagle River area.
We witness a rebirth as spring comes to the Northwoods. The woods come to life as its inhabitants wake up from winter slumbers. Enjoy the unmatched beauty while catching glimpses of newborn eagles, loons, and deer. And it’s all just a step out the door from your luxurious lodge home.
Whatever the length of your stay, their friendly professional staff is waiting to make your stay the finest possible. Wild Eagle Lodge... a resort condominium of distinction.
By the way I placed 2nd out of 51 entrants with a nice fat 41 1/2 inch musky that I caught during the weekend.
