Let me start by saying this, we (my family and I) are budget travelers. When we camp, we stay in tents. When we go to Mexico, we stay in hotels without A/C. When we go to Wisconsin Dells we stay at the Pink Flamingo...you get the picture. We have put up with mold, bugs, filth, noise...I have never, ever wanted... More

We have a seasonal @ Silver Rapids Lodge and we love this place! The place is well kept and the staff are all friendly and accomadating. We get up as often as we possibly can and it's Gods Country. I It's amazing people can always find something to Pi** & Moan about!! Yes the sites are small and the motel... More

We stayed in cabin #1 and even though it was outdated it was clean. The staff was great and very helpful with anything that we asked. The lodge food was great and the bar staff was fun! We did see the camp sites and they are very tight and on gravel, but the cabins were great! We will stay there... More

This review is based only on the jr suite motel rooms and restaurant. NOT the cabins or campground. Stayed 2 nights with my mom. Restaurant- decent offerings and prices. Chicken dinner entree ($12) that I had and the shrimp entree ($16) that my mom had were both good. Nothing super special, but a good portion and a nice salad with... More

Stayed in a deluxe hotel suite. Very dirty and outdated. No air conditioning and it was really hot and humid out. No TV. Food at restaurant was good. Staff was friendly. Views of lake were nice. You can stay at a much nicer place in Ely for $129.00. Luckily we were only there one night.

My wife and I stayed in the campground June 23-29 2012 on site L14 in our 27 ft 5th wheel. Sure it might seem a little tight backing into your site if your used to pull thru sites but it can be done. Our level site was big enough to be able to use our slideout and also unroll the... More

The "nice, lakeside" camp sites are nothing but gravel with nowhere to park your vehicle and no room to move. Stick your arm and touch your neighbor!! We pulled in and looked at the site just to leave and find another campground, luckily! Then we had to pay for the entire 3 days, not just lose our deposit! When we... More

My wife and i booked a campsite at Silver Rapids Lodge against my better judgement, but we spoke with several employees about reserving a campsite and were told that although most of their sites were lakeshore on gravel, they had "one private,beautiful campsite on a wooded GRASSY hillside that would fit our needs," When we arrived there for our "grassy...

Buddy and I changed our plans on Sunday morning on Labor Day weekend on where we where fishing. Decided to head to Ely to fish for crappies. We didn't have anywhere to stay and called there. They had some open spots. We drove two hours to get there. The staff got us a spot in the motel. They gave us... More
