Enjoying the Summer Sun

Between the countless lakes and vast wilderness, summer up North is hard to beat. After settling into your home away from home at Wild Eagle Lodge, let the summer fun in the sun begin in the beautiful Northwoods.

Set out on a fishing expedition on the numerous waterways of Northern Wisconsin from the chain of 28 lakes to winding rivers. Holding a variety of species including bass, walleye, panfish, and musky, it’s no wonder these waters are recognized as world-class fisheries. Cast out and make new fish stories this summer in Eagle River. 

These expansive waterways not only provide a plethora of top secret fishing spots, but also prime boating, whether you’re looking to take a fast-paced joy ride or a relaxing cruise. The best part? Pontoon rentals are available directly through the lodge. So what are you waiting for? Get on the water and unwind in the peace and tranquility of the Northwoods.

While the water is certainly full of fun, the untouched wilderness has even more in store! Nestled near the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest, you’re surrounded by endless opportunities for exploration. Scope out Eagle River’s day hikes including the notable Anvil Lake Recreation Area. By bike, hop on a fan-favorite trail through the picturesque Black Jack Springs Wilderness. Its natural beauty will leave you in awe.

Fall Fun in the Northwoods

As fall quickly comes around the corner, the fall foliage and exciting festivities are underway! When you arrive at Wild Eagle Lodge, you’ll be amazed at the vibrant, colorful hues of reds and goldens that make the landscape glow. Magic is in the air.

Take in the incredible views and venture out on a tour to see the scenic foliage the Northwoods is known for. Make it an adventure and explore by ATV or UTV through the rugged terrain on scattered remote trails. To name a few, hit the St. Germain ATV Club Trails and Lakeland ATV Club Trails, which connect Eagle River to other Northwoods communities. 

Eagle River is all about community, which shines through the many festive events put on all season long. In September, plan your visit and participate in the SepTimber Ride–an epic bike ride experience that leads you underneath the colorful canopy to a local brewery and winery home to the Northwoods. Or, if you wish to come in October, celebrate at both Cranberry Fest and Hallowfest to get into the spirit of our state and season.

With all of the scenic outdoor festivities, you’ll be ready to cozy up in the area’s local restaurants. If you’re looking to dine downtown, stop by one of the quaint and unique restaurants like The Craftsman American Tavern that is known for hand-crafted cocktails and classic Wisconsin specials. Or, stay in and dine from the comfort of your own lodge at The Blue Heron Restaurant–a top-notch choice.
