A total dive bar and must visit!! 7 songs on the juke box for a dollar. In the basement of a old hotel/house on Birch lake, Birchwood wisconsin.

Basement bar. Cool dog, grumpy owner-lady. Appeared to be friendlier to patrons she knew vs out of area visitors. 3rd time visiting over the course of several yrs and I always felt unwelcomed. If you're going to run a business, approach and first impressions does wonders.

I went here with my mom and the lady bartender, Dawn, was REALLY rude to my mother. She wasn't rude to others from what I heard, but the dog there whenever my mom asked or petted him the bartender would say things like "he doesn't like his paws touched" when we were just petting his head. And when we were leaving, my mom was petting the dog and the bartender was like "he doesn't like having people up in his face," and yes this doesn't sound bad but the attitude the woman had was kind of off putting. Other than that the place has a nice view outside, but i wouldn't want to drink in a basement. ?

The kind of bar I grew up in. Great beer selection. Cool old school games. Reasonable prices. And a monster of a bar dog. The owers are super friendly nice people. The crowd is always fun. Hope to visit again soon.

Girls trip - Long weekend getaway, this resort was perfect for us. Cabin was very comfortable and very clean. Nicely equipped with everything you need in the kitchen. Having the bar and grill there was convenient, but holy cow- the food was amazing. Burgers and Wings are the specialty and we can see why. Live music out on the deck Sat and Sun brought in the crowds, so we ordered our food to go and enjoyed it on our deck overlooking the lake. Music was late afternoon to early eve- so it was not a disruption at all. Relaxing atmosphere with families enjoying this little gem in the woods of Wisconsin. The pool on site looks over Birch Lake and is heated. The only disappointment was, there was not a place for a campfire, but in the end, not a big deal. It would also be nice if some of the low laying trees be trimmed out between cabin and lake for a better lake view. Thank you Bev, Pete, Nikki and staff for your hard work and dedication to hospitality. We will be back. PS. We rented a pontoon from Ri-Shells resort across the lake. Great addition to the trip.
