Looking to rent an entire Northwoods lodge for your next snowmobiling adventure, fishing trip, or ski weekend? Look no further! The Bear Lodge offers a one-of-a-kind experience just 30 miles north of Minocqua and six miles from Manitowish Waters — and only 30 miles from ski hills.
This full-service lodge features a private bar, commercial-grade kitchen, pool table, multiple fireplaces, and it's dog-friendly too! Conveniently located right on a snowmobile trailhead, with plenty of parking for trailers, boats, and all your outdoor gear, it's an ideal home base for adventure in any season.
In the warmer months, you're just one block from the South Turtle Lake boat landing, offering access to the scenic chain of South Turtle, North Turtle, and Rock Lakes. Don’t forget your fishing gear — the lakes are known for excellent muskie, walleye, northern pike, and panfish, both in summer and through the ice. The lodge also has its own dock for swimming and easy boat access.
