"The Midwest's best getaway"
Romantic
Restful
Restorative
Canoe Bay - a private, adult only resort located in the Wisconsin northwoods and the only Relais & Châteaux in the Midwest! Designed especially for adult couples, we take pride in offering ultimate relaxation amidst the beauty of nature while indulging in deliciously fresh, Chef-prepared meals.
We welcome you to explore our pristine, glacially carved lake by kayak, canoe or paddle board and partake in fishing and swimming at your leisure. Stroll through our hiking trails or snowshoe to your hearts content. Lose yourselves in our magical garden, read a fascinating tale from the library and sit back on your private deck to take it all in. At day end, each of our architecturally stunning, prairie-style cedarwood accommodations will entice you to drift away in your whirlpool tub or dream by the fireplace.
There is truly no better place to feel at one with nature, unwind, and reset your soul!
