OK--getting a little cabin fever here--can't wait to get back to the cabin...
One of the things the wife and I look forward to is hitting our favorite lakeside establishment---which happens to be --"The Landing" on Lake Vermilion.
Amazing atmosphere, crazy fish fries, specials during the week--the coldest tap beer ever--(not a drinker but were on vacation lol), super nice view of the lake---boats always coming and going--docks outside--public landing right next door--a cool little bridge leading up to it....tables outside....always filled with others on vacation who are in a great mood....
Really good service, nice owners, just 2 minutes from the cabin---Sports/weather on TV---Good tunes.....Can't wait to get back up there---just screams--good times/vacation!!!
Before moving up to Big V---Bosakies in Minocqua was always the favorite because of above mentioned reasons....
What about you.....Always looking for a new spot or two..... |

Location: Loves Park, IL | One place we always hit while on family vacation is the waterside grill at Chanticleer on the Eagle River Chain. Great burgers/lunch sandwiches. We sit on the roof deck of the boathouse and watch boats go by while we eat. Great time/place.

after a short try as Matt Morgan's ... "The Boathouse" in Minocqua (formerly Bosaki's) will open under new Owners and Managers in the next month or so. Word is that it is a group with a great deal of experience so hopefully this one will stick.
the old Lakeside Landing on a Sunday afternoon with Marvin playing on the grass and Dougie tending the bar was my favorite. or listening to Tuck at the Whale on Wednesdays after a night on the water. |

We've been known to hold down the fort at the Lower Unit a time or two. Good scenery and nice weather make for easy drinking.  |

Location: SE Wisconsin | 12 Pines on the ER Chain has great pizza.
Foolery's is a great place for a fatty burger and a beer when you're on Okauchee.
The Sports Doc on Pewaukee has Black Angus beef patty's for a solid burger, and they also have bison burgers.
Pine Harbor and The Jailhouse on Boom Lake/Wisconsin River are both fun stops for a beer and bar food. Jailhouse makes the cheesiest pizza I've ever had - anywhere - ever!
Musky Shores on Squirrel Lake is another stop we always make when we're on that water. |

| Deerfoot on Chippewa Flowage is a good spot for lunch. About 10 years ago we stayed at Deer Run, also on the Chip and there were some crazy story tellers in that place. We need to get back there somethime. We stayed at Treelands this year and that is nice also. I was the only Bears fan in the place during the game last season and they all wore me out. |

Location: Greenfield, WI | I would "second" the vote for the Hillside Resort on Vieux Desert. It has the log cabin "up north" interior 1950's atmosphere that would be impossible to create with new construction.
Unfortunately a few years ago fire took the original Holiday Bar on North Twin Lake. It had similar atmosphere only on a bigger scale as the Hillside, but the current Holiday Bar does quite well for a rebuilt classic "up north" eatery!

Location: Wisconsin | The Lakeside on Lake Tomahawk wasn't bad. The Golden Mast has a good fish fry on Friday night and that is on Okauchee. The other place on Okauchee is good as well, but they keep changing owners so who knows if they are still in business. But you can see bluegills through the floor... |

Location: Wishin I Was Fishin' | I'll second Green's in Nestor Falls. Now that place is rustic and it's on my favorite lake to Musky fish!
My all time favorite is my boat. That is the best place to have a beer and it's on every lake that I'm fishing on It frequently get's called a bar and it get's tied up to all the time. Naturally in a responsible manner. |
