If I could have left 0 starts I would have. Been coming up north 1 week every year for 45 years. The lady running this place is very rude and not customer friendly. They WON'T take reservations a year in advance. We came there willing to spend $5,000. ( HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO PLAN A VACATION IF YOU DONT TAKE RESERVATIONS)?? I wouldn't give this place a penny and would never recommend this place to anyone.
Look around for different resort. Trust me there are way better ones that take reservations a year in advance and will treat you nice!
Voss' is a one-of-a-kind place which everyone should experience. It has been owned and operated by the same family for more than 100 years, and offers one of the last opportunities for visitors to experience what the Northwoods was like at the end of the 19th century. Furnished with authentic pieces from the late 1800s and early 1900s (many of which were used in the film Public Enemies with Johnny Depp) and table service is also authentic turn-of-the-20th-Century, Voss' is an authentic back-in-time experience. In the 20s and 30s, resorts like Voss' were patronized by gangsters from Chicago, and in the 40s and 50s, the growing middle class enjoyed the comfort of "housekeeping" cottages. Today only a few of these classic lodges survive, but remain a vital part of the history of Northern Wisconsin. Voss' Birchwood Lodge is nestled on a bay of Spider Lake, and had a key role in the shootout at nearby Little Bohemia Lodge when the FBI tried to capture John Dillinger. Diners enjoy spectacular lake views and sunsets along with excellent cuisine prepared by Chef Chris. It is an experience not to be missed.
The bar overlooks the lake, which is really stunning at sunset, but the drinks weren't great. The bartender was nice but wasn't at the bar for most of the time. A nice location, but the overall experience needs work.
Service was great; the wait staff seemed to find the perfect time to appear and the food was amazing as well. If one nitpick I'd hav to say that the noodles were a bit short on sauce, but the food was still above average.
Beautiful setting, spectacular food. Like stepping back in time. You will not be disappointed!
It's not fancy, but it's not trying to be. It's old, it's quirky, it's weird. But the location if really nice, and the prices can't be beat. If you're adventurous and don't mind an older place, there's a bit of charm to be found.
Never ever ever stay here. Checked in and left. Old dirty looking rooms. Smoke alarms hanging off the walls with wires everywhere. Reminded me of a scary movie!!
