I have an opportunity to stay at Stanley's this late July-early August. I searched all threads about Eagle Lake from the last two years so I have read plenty of good things about the lake, but I did not see much about Stanley's. Does anyone have anything good/bad to say about the resort? Are there any particular staff members who are fairly knowledgable muskie fishing wise? Also I am trying to decide if I would want to bring my boat or rent one of theirs. I know their boats have 2 depth finders, bow mount trolling motors, and decent tillers. My main concern is the casting decks. The front deck looks good, but the back decks are narrow which would a lot weight right on the edge of the boat, if anyone has fished two people out of their boat please let me know any good/bad things you experienced with it. My main concern is how far the boat will lean. I don't want to feel like I am standing on a downward sloping hill if you catch my drift. (I would be kicking myself if that was the case knowing I could have spent more money on gas and brought my boat with me)

Any info on what the fishing is like in the area would be appreciated. No need for specific spots. I am sure stanley's will mark up a map for me anyway, but an arrow in the right direction would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance for any info!
