The Pointe Hotel and Suites

The Pointe Hotel and Suites

10/10 Excellent
"Being a long time owner of an amazing lake front property on Squirrel Lake - family place since 1941, my expectations were not that high. I was pleasantly surprised at just how comfortable and quiet the place was. The one bedroom condo was way more than I needed just for a night, but it certainly has me thinking that I WILL BE BACK, as well as suggesting it to my Cousin. The breakfast was a real nice addition for me, being by myself. It was great! Having the docks on Lake Minocqua is the key. The only thing negative was when Daniel told me I couldn’t swim off the docks- had to go to Torpy Park to swim. That I did - swim at Torpy. I grew up here- I’ve know this place since I can remember and I’m 67 now. I easily could have gotten in the water at the docks. It was “Rocky and under the bridge and high boat traffic” as he went on about. He needs to be talked to about that in my mind. Overall, I hope to see you again, but will disregard Dan"
