Very quiet and beautiful. Cottages a little oldish, but everything working fine.
Great little beach for young kids, free kayaks, canoes for the older ones. Free wifi, free firewood. Well maintained resort, 6 cottages so it is never busy. We loved it
Very cleanand spacious cottages with amazing view. Dock with chairs, boating, kayaking, bonfire and free wifi! Mallory and Roy were very helpful to adjust us last moment. Definitely recommend and we will come back for sure.
Quiet resort on a small calm lake. Perfect for kayaking or canoeing. Cabins are clean and comfortable and staff is friendly and helpful. Very scenic area.
Clean resort. Lots of kayaks, canoes and paddle boards to use. We stayed in the pine cabin. Small but does the job.
Situated on a quaint, quiet, motorboat free lake, the Norsemen is a perfect spot for a romantic getaway. The restaurant is great, with signature local ingredients prepared and presented with panache.
Walker Lake Resort is a very beautiful place to stay. Cabins are so close to the water. The lake has a decent trout and bass fishing. Limberlost walking trails are just minutes away! Very friendly staff and cozy environment. Highly recommended
Had a great week. Facilities were clean and well-cared for. They had lots of equipment for us - life jackets, paddle boards, kayaks, volleyball, bocce, badminton. We had 4 cottages for our extended family and had a great time.
