Lodging Recommendations
Stouts Island Lodge
2799 27TH ST, BIRCHWOOD, WI 54817
(715) 354-3646
For the guests that we’ve reached out to about staying on the island with us, please call Stouts for your cabin assignment. We wish we could accommodate everyone on the island but there is limited cabin space. It’s only a quick 5 min ferry ride away though so we hope you’ll still come hang out beyond our weekend events!
Tagalong Golf & Resort
2853 29TH AVE, BIRCHWOOD, WI 54817
(715) 415-7797
If you’re interested in staying on the lake, Tagalong Golf & Resort is a great option! We have single condos and two-bedroom suites blocked for the weekend under Carroll/Harald. There is a 2-night minimum on both room types. Tagalong is only a 5 min drive to Stouts parking lot or a boat ride away! Call the number to book.
Rate: $200-300 per night
Holiday Inn Express & Suites
824 BEAR PAW AVE, RICE LAKE, WI 54868
(715) 736-7444
If you’ll just be joining us for the wedding celebrations on Saturday, this is a good option as there is no night minimum. The Holiday Inn is located in Rice Lake, less than a 20 minute drive from Stouts Parking lot. Click the link below to book with our blocked room rate on Friday & Saturday (it will pop up once you enter our dates).
Rate: $150-160 per night
Gathering Place Resort
2738 27 1/2 AVE, BIRCHWOOD, WI 54817
(715) 354-3029
If you’re hoping to make the trip more of a summer lake vacation, rent a cabin at Gathering Place Resort. They have multiple two-bedroom cabins for rent and a few bigger ones as well. Because it’s more of a cabin resort on the lake, they have a 3-night minimum. Gathering Place Resort is neighbors to the Stouts parking lot so it’s a short walk to the ferry dock.
Rate: ~$285 per night (depending on cabin)
Airbnbs
If you don’t love any of the resort or hotel options, you can always check out the Airbnb rentals available in the area. There are a few on the lake and hopefully more pop up as we get a little closer to season. Try to drop a pin close to the Airbnb location to determine how far of a drive it is to Stouts parking lot.
Rate: ~$350 per night (depending on rental)
Out of State Guests
For our friends and family visiting from out of state, we suggest flying into MSP! The drive to Stouts is around 2 hours from the airport. If you need transportation to Stouts, this shuttle service is an option to take groups to the area. Or else we suggest trying to find a ride with someone local or renting a car.
