We stayed at the Osthoff for two nights. One just my husband and I - one with our two young sons. It is an impressive looking resort from the outside and mostly throughout. Could be defined as sprawling - which could mean a lot of walking if you are on an end wing. Not an issue for us. Customer service... More

We really enjoyed this hotel. The grounds were beautiful, even in the winter, and the staff were very welcoming. The village of Elkhart was steps away and fun to explore. Everyone we met was very friendly. We stayed in a 1 bedroom suite with full kitchen and jacuzzi bath. The room was very nice and well cared for, although a... More

A great way to put one in the holiday spirit is to visit the Osthoff Resort on beautiful Elkhart Lake, WI. Numerous vendors from Germany make the trek each year to sell their wares such as nutcrackers, handblown ornaments, and wood carvings. The resort is splendidly dressed in the trappings of the season and music fills the air. The front... More

I'm 5 months pregnant, so my husband and I decided to find a place to take a quiet get away after Christmas to spend some quality time together before the baby is born. We researched several resorts within 3 hours of Milwaukee, and found the Osthoff had great reviews (especially about the spa), so we decided to make that our... More

We spent three days in December at the Osthoff Resort in Elkhart Lake, visiting the European Christas Market. The market was charming -- booths and aisles decorated with live greens and little white lights -- all located in a large, heated tent outside the resort. We had been at the resort in the summer, but the winter was a different... More

I visited for the Christmas Market ( located in a tent steps from the hotel's front door) and the resortl was adorned in classic greenery with elegant sparkle- white lights, red or maroon bows, and natural additions like pine cones or fruit. Nothing... More

A convention brought me to the Osthoff! Our suite was very spacious, a couch, two chairs even a kitchenette! A therapeutic view of the lake and even a balcony you can view the moon and stars from! The king size bed was so comfortable, many extra pillows, along with good quality sheets! Great night sleep, quiet and so relaxing! The... More

Spent Thanksgiving and the day after at the Osthoff with my parents. I had a beautiful two room suite, the bathroom was pure luxury and the bed was really comfy! Overall, the service was great - excellent room service, quick and reasonably priced. I spent time in the Elk Room working on Friday and the bartender Pat was so lovely... More

Took my wife for a one-night getaway to the Osthoff. We just returned. Wow. Our lake view deluxe suite had about as much square footage as our condo in Chicago. The kitchenette was better equipped than the usual kitchenette and included a range, plenty of counter space and all of the pots, pans and utensils one might need to cook... More
