Josh & Nicole, Thanks for your hospitality. Everything was exactly what we were told or better. Hot tub was a great ending or start to our day. It was nice to usually catch up with you every evening to have you ask about our day or if there was anything we needed. Your cottages were perfect for a group of... More

Our cabin was equipped with 2 double beds and 2 single beds, (noe very comfortable) a couch table and 4 chairs and rocker. The tv was perched on top of the fridge. The cabin was... More

Some friends invited me to join them on a snowmobile trip to the UP and I'm glad I went. The cabins were as neat and clean as other reviewers have noted and they are what they are supoosed to be- a nice, clean place to sleep while you enjoy the outdoors. We rented sleds from Picklemans and mine was one... More

Josh and Nicole exceeded my expectations again...Clean and comfortable rooms, stove, toaster, microwave, coffee maker, full size fridge and LOTS of snow...who could ask for more! Parking areas plowed. Laid back and accomodating.

We needed a place to stay in the Newberry area for one night and the reviews on Tripadvisor convinced us this was the place. It was perfect. Very, very clean. I loved how the towels and the sheets had a nice clean fragrance. The set up is very nice, wish we could have stayed longer. If/When we do make a... More

We really love staying here at Halfway Lake Resort. We come at least four times a year to enjoy what each season has to offer! I'm always so pleased with how absolutely immaculate the cabins are kept, and so well maintained. They're nicely furnished and have a well equiped kitchen. The cabins are very spacious with plenty of room for... More

The cabins were built in the late 90's and have been well maintained. Our cabin appeared to have been freshly painted with newer, clean carpet. This resort is as nice as everyone claims. HOWEVER, I was not prepared for NO DRESSERS or SHELVES in the bedroom. There is a peg hanger on each bedroom wall but no where to put... More

We're already planning on returning next year. Everything you could ever want in a relaxing stay is here. We fished,... More

Although we could only stay one night we took full advantage of the lake. Kids loved to take the canoes out and the lake was so calm and quiet!!! Cabin was quaint and had everything we needed! Owners are young with young kids and very nice! The Yooper speak was awesome :)
