Ruttger's Bay Lake Resort

8/10 Good
"Always love returning to Bay Lake. I had booked a lodge room but was given a condo which was just fine- no explanation. Was charged my original price so that was ok. Food in Rubys was excellent. Didn’t like not seeing a print out of the meal receipt at the table though. Sure enough when I checked there were two charges applied that we didn’t order. When I asked about it the next day it was corrected. Thank you. Great little shops with wonderful items to buy."

Newly renovated lakefront townhome with incredible views of Mille Lacs Lake

8/10 Good
"Beautiful, little place to stay! We had a weekend of vision planning for the upcoming year for our family and it was so nice being right on the lake. We spent so much time in the screened in porch; it was a great set up! The biggest and only downfall was the house wasn’t super clean. It had been tidied up, but for as many vrbo’s that we’ve stayed in, I’ve never paid that much to not have it be pretty spotless upon arrival. There were lots of bugs, hair, and dusty cobwebs in the corners on the floors/ the windows, in picture frames in the bedroom. Some bug guts smeared on the wall. Some of the walls in the kitchen hasn’t been wiped down of handprints/smears."
