Wazee Lake Recreation Area, Black River Falls hotel rooms at the Independent

"Pooja was very friendly and welcoming. Helped us check in and get settled. Very nice "

"We ultimately enjoyed our time, however if we were to go back prior to any updates we would do things differently. There was only one restaurant open and it was SLOW. Even if we were the only family ordering it took over an hour to get our food. Didn’t matter what time of day or what we ordered. It was quite mind boggling how scrambled eggs and a waffle could take that long?! So if we stayed again we would make sure we brought things for some breakfasts and lunches. It was a bummer the outdoor food wasn’t open as we spent a good chunk of our time there. Again, if we were to be back we would bring more food/snacks for pool time. We ate out for dinner all 3 nights we were there (The Pines right down the road was awesome!). Both pools are nice and the kids loved them. But they couldn’t use the basketball hoops in the outdoor pool because they were so rusted they might break. Indoor waterpark the only issue was tubes, by the afternoon you would be hard pressed to find one inflated enough to use. I understand they are short staffed but should have someone walking around during the day to reinflate them. When we got to our room the mini fridge was leaking and the floor was wet in front of it. The front desk gave us towels and said maintenance wouldn’t be in until the next day. Mini golf was fun but $10/person each time is a lot if you are staying! Should have a deal of some sort, unlimited golf for $X. Staff was friendly! Live music was fun on Friday night!"

" Vernon, our desk clerk, was fantastic! "

"Very nice"

"Hotel is quiet, clean and a great place to stay on a road trip. We relaxed after a long day of working and driving. The whirlpool in our room was a nice bonus. Look forward to staying again."
