Nordic Lodge is in a great location, close to Sister Bay, Ephraim, and Fish Creek. It is not a fancy or luxurious hotel but does have breakfast, a swimming pool, and hot tub. Most importantly to me, the bed was comfortable and the location quiet.

Very cozy and cute. Breakfast is a bit unique but plenty of options and still delicious. The pool had a few buggies hangin around but i lived. And the whirlpool was relaxing but was hard to find a time when so many ppl weren’t taking it up. Overall convenient for traveling in the local area. Would def recommend.

The pool and hot tub were great. The room key didn’t work for one of our key sets and the door to the outside was tricky to lock. It was very noisy our last night there, but it was just other guests being loud.

Pretty run down and outdated. The pool and hot top were not very inviting, and for the price of the stay, I don't feel it was worth it.

Read several negative reviews but in my opinion, a lot of people are expecting too much from a 2 Star hotel. Sure, this place could use some updates but overall the room was very clean and the area felt safe and that is our main concerns. We have stayed at four and five star hotels and Airbnb's that were dirtier.

Conveniently located between Ephraim and Sister Bay. More rustic than expected. Staff tried to close the pool/whirlpool well before posted times each night. No elevator, so be ready to carry bags up the stairs.

No exceptions to breakfast hours of 8 to 10 am.

Front desk staff was not accommodating in any way, when asked to get a few breakfast items from the locked cooler the night before, as we would be leaving at 6:30 am for the Peninsula Fall Century bike ride. We were repeatedly told breakfast is from 8 to 10 am and no, we could not get a yogurt or any other packaged item. Staff unfriendly and unhelpful.

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities

Very disappointed

The bathroom was very small. They lock the door to the main entrance after 8pm and are supposed to give you a key for it. (They still use regular keys instead of a key card). But they gave us the wrong key and we didn’t know it until we were locked out of the building after 8pm. They do not have a night attendant or any employee on site after 8pm so we had to wait outside until another guest came back to the motel and they kindly let us in. The next day we went to leave through the back entrance and discovered that door is broken. The door knob and lock was actually taped up with duct tape. The continental breakfast was terrible. It is in the very tiny main lobby and has only one very tiny table with 2 chairs. You have to either eat in your room or eat outside. There is only one mini size microwave. We waited in line for 15 minutes to use the microwave (even though there was only 4 people ahead of us) and then decided to just skip it and only took a yogurt Then take it back to the room to eat it only to discover it was expired. Also the ice machine was broken. Overall awful experience and will not go back there again.

This property was very convenient for our trip to Sister Bay. The pool and hot tub were well maintained and enjoyable. Front desk staff were seldomly around and with no phone in our room to contact them, my grand daughter was not able to get an extra pillow. Also, didn't seem to responsive when I informed them that the coffee carafe was empty at the continental breakfast.

Just okay, but won’t be back.

Had a good stay at this hotel. It is clean and the staff is very friendly. The breakfast did not accommodate any type of food allergies and they only had black tea. The front desk has sparse coverage.

Never book at Nordic

Horrible experience. We drove 4.5 hours up to find out that they over booked our room. The receptionist was the worst encounter i have ever had. She was not helpful flipped her screen over to "look for myself" that she did not have my reservation. Did not try to help find me another room somewhere else. Was so rude

Worst experince ever. Dont stay here

Probably the worst experience Ive ever had with a hotel ever. No employees on the property whatsoever to help us check in. The "emergency after hours 800 number" they have posted for "late arrivals" is not a valid number and goes to another resort. No one was answering calls. Othrt guests were also stranded and needdd help. When I was finally able to check in I did not receive the room I requested and paid for. Room was dingy. No room service due to "Covid and to keep prices down"?? I have never heard of this. This trip was for our anniversary and was a huge let down. Will never stay here again

Room good security not so much.

The room was recently remodeled and the bathroom and bed was good. Nice pillow and sheets. However both doors had this weird loop as an extra security measure that didn’t make us feel good about the locks. There was a door from the hallway and one from the outside deck. When we got there the back door was wide open. Also the back hallway door was taped so it didn’t lock and the tape was painted over so it was there for a long time. Not secure at all. I would have preferred a refund to go somewhere else but the room was not refundable.

Avoid this place

called to cancel due to wrong booking date, and staff never cancelled, gave me the run-around, said a manager would call me back. They never did. I contacted them from their website, called them daily and still no calls back. Then on the day I was supposed to check in, I get a call back from another person who said again a manager would have to call me back, never did. Dishonest and deceptive operation. Can not recommend.
