I recently stayed at the Eagle River Inn and had a delightful mini vacation experience. The location by the waterfront provides breathtaking views, especially during sunset. The staff was very friendly and attentive, but I did notice some areas, like the breakfast options, could use improvement. The room was clean and comfortable, but there were issues with housekeeping during my stay. Overall, it's a charming spot with potential, but it could benefit from some updates and consistency.

My family and I recently stayed at the Eagle River Inn and Resort, and despite a few hiccups, we made some wonderful memories. The beautiful waterfront location offers great views and plenty of outdoor spaces to enjoy, such as lawns and picnic areas. However, we faced some challenges with breakfast options and the pool area could use a bit of cleaning. Overall, it’s a charming place that I'd recommend for families looking to relax and have fun.

I had an interesting experience at this hotel. The location by the water is stunning, and the restaurant had some great improvements, especially the Friday Fish Fry, which was definitely a highlight.
