My husband and I and our family have stayed at the Chanticleer four times. We usually get one of their villas because they are large enough for our family and you can cook in their small kitchens. In times past, the actual rooms/villas are only average at best (kind of older and shabby). The reason we stay there is because... More

We have stayed at the Chanticleer many times and while some of the poor reviews correctly capture some "personality" opportunities...I tend to place HIGH emphasis on how clean a place is...the Chanticleer motel rooms are the cleanest accomodations I have found and compare equally for cleanlness with some 5 star hotels I have stayed in...IMHO if Jake was friendlier and...

I had blocked 12 MOTEL rooms for my wedding in October. As soon as I found out we had very unsuccessfully planned our wedding the same weekend as Cranberry Fest I started calling to make blocks at multiple locations. There was absolutely NO problem when making the block at the Chanticleer a couple months ago. However my fiancé and I... More

Headed to Eagle River, Wisconsin in late September to revisit this town which had been the childhood vacation spot of my boyfriend. The Chanticleer Inn is located right on Voyageur Lake. Although there are villas available, we stayed in the motel which was adjacent to the lakeshore and tennis court. After coming from Chicago, sounds of the leaves rustling in... More

I spent three days there and I could have easily spent the rest of my life there. I absolutely love nature and the Chanticleer Inn is the single most amazing place I have ever stayed in. The incredible beauty that surrounds the place during the Fall is breathtaking. I stayed in one of the condos with ,my girlfriend and I... More

You can't beat the view, it's right on the lake. A private little section of beach too. The rooms we stayed in were the "hotel/motel" rooms. Nothing fancy, very small. We had two adults and two little kids. It was OK. The restaurant waiting time was way too long for our kids, more than an hour. Overall for the price,... More

When we were shown our room the stench of mold overwhelmed us. The mattress on the bed sagged. The couch had an odor. The ceramic in the tub was worn down to metal and a tiny dorm refrigerator was on a rickety tabble in the closet. The carpet was worn and looked dirty. Of course, you had to pay in... More

My husband and I and our one-year old had planned a nice fall week in Eagle River (our first family vacation with our son). We arrived to a beautiful hotel and great weather. We stayed in a two bedroom cottage with a nice deck overlooking a waterway linking two of the chain of lakes. The restaurant had great food for... More

We have been going to the Chantcleer for the past 8 years and love it! It's always difficult to leave the lake view behind us as we head back to our flatland home, and this year was no exception. Their new rental, Hudson House, was terrific! Along with putting together a fine staff (including friendly Herb, Minnow, Carol and Nancy),... More
