Stayed at WBL for the first time in August 2012 and will be back August 2013! My daughter is 10 years old and learn to water ski and wake board during our week stay. My family likes being outdoors and active and this is the place. The Conrad's and the staff are very nice. My only regret is not taking... More

The White Birch Lodge is a trip that makes the whole family happy. I was giddy to be excluded from meal planning, meal preparation and meal clean up for 7 blissful days. I read on the beach, took out paddle boards and enjoyed the scenery of the lake in peace and quiet. My 2 children had loads of fun and... More

Our family (2 kids and parents) LOVE WBL! We visited for the first time this summer. The staff is amazing, the skiing is superb, the lake is lovely. We are very easy going and this is an easy going place. My ONLY criticism (constructive) is the food. We basically ate the oatmeal, yogurt, fresh fruit and salad bar (when offered)... More

White birch lodge is a great vacation spot. Best for families of all ages. Simple accommodations and 3 home cooked family style meals per day are the basics supporting inland lake front beach activities and enjoyment. Staff of young folks are great with kids and adults. All-inclusive cost is a terrific value. Staff and guests are friendly. Our favorite get-away... More

White birch lodge is the vacation place for families. We vacation all over the US and love WBL. It is a wonderful place for families to go each summer. We take a high end ski trip annually every winter and bring our kids to florida each spring break but the place they remember each year is WBL. You check in... More

This is the best vacation you could ever ask for. I had been going to a place similar to White Birch Lodge when I was a kid and was always sad when they closed, thinking I would never find a replacement to take my children to one day... Well I found it, and it has surpassed anything I could imagine.... More

No stress, happy kids, great laughs, all around best week of the year. Loved WBL as a kid, love it even more as a parent. If you enjoy seeing your kids happy, and exhausted, and your spouse in great spirits, and worrying about absolutely nothing for a week - go to WBL.

Growing up as a child I always looked forward to my time at White Birch Lodge and now as an adult nothing has changed. This is the best vacation for families and individuals. The lake is gorgeous and the staff is incredible. You don't have to worry about a thing for your entire time there. The memories will live forever.

Our time at White Birch Lodge enabled us to completely relax and enjoy time with part of our family without meal-making and activity-finding concerns on our minds. We loved the condo in which we stayed, the constant though almost invisible service of a great, young staff and the spirit created by decades of happy families enjoying what we were enjoying... More

This was the 1st time we have been and when we were taking a tour of the place I was waiting for Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey to come out and start dancing for us.
