Top Rainbow Lake Hotel Reviews

Lumbermens Village

10/10 Excellent

"Had a wonderful experience and look forward to doing it again. Wonderful hosts and great food."

Hidden Rest Cabins & Resort

8/10 Good

"Beautiful place to stay. Our cabin was too small though, for 2 people and a dog. I think it was called a business cabin. I would suggest making sure the size of cabins work for your stay. It does state what's in the rooms, but not the sizes. That being said. We would stay there again but a bigger cabin"

Beautiful Lake Views at this Dog Friendly home on Rainbow Lake

10/10 Excellent

"This is a beautiful property. Well equipped. We enjoyed everything about our stay and plan on coming back. This was our first time booking with vrbo and Ron made it so easy and welcoming. Thx Ron!!Having the property completely and safely fenced added immensely to the relax factor. We brought our senior dog with us, and while we would never leave him outside alone, it was a level of peace knowing that if he slipped out the door, his wandering was safe and we didn’t have the panic of losing him. We did bring his crate along just in case we had wanted to leave him home while dining out. We knew he would be more comfortable plus no worries about him getting rambunctious being alone in a new place. It turns out we took him with us everywhere. Such a good boy"

Cozy and lakefront cabin on Rainbow lake, large fenced deck and 2 grills!!!

8/10 Good

Pines Cabin at The Lazy Oaks Resort

10/10 Excellent

"This was our third year visiting The Lazy Oaks Resort, and once again, it was a wonderful experience! The accommodations are top-notch—our cabin was incredibly well-kept, and we absolutely loved all the thoughtful amenities provided inside. The resort's common areas are awesome and perfectly maintained, making it easy to relax and enjoy the surroundings. We had great fishing right from the side of the channel and caught a ton of catfish during our stay. We already can't wait to go back. Highly recommend!"

Great Fishing Steps from Your Door- Maples Cabin

10/10 Excellent

"Easy check in, cabin was just as described. Steps away from the lake. Just what my husband and i were looking for, peace and quiet. We will definitely be coming back."
