Top Rainbow Lake Hotel Reviews

Lumbermens Village

8/10 Good

"The room was clean and well-stocked. Limited bar type food at the restaurant. Decent choice for the price point. No breakfast available (Bar doesn't open until 11.)"

Beautiful Lake Views at this Dog Friendly home on Rainbow Lake

8/10 Good

"The location is perfect for anyone that wants access to Rainbow Lake. It’s feet from the yard. The home itself is very clean but could use a little TLC. Many repairs were amateur, like insulating the AC unit with wadded up shopping bags and replacing a commode but not painting the wall behind it. We were unable to run the window AC units in the bedroom and living room without tripping a breaker and it was quite warm with no storms rolling through to lower the outside temps. There is quite a lot of traffic day and night due to the location and headlights in the bedroom windows was something to adjust to during our stay. The home is safe, well stocked and clean. We didn’t bring our pets but there is a large fenced yard that would have been perfect for them. Overall it was a good stay and the location was ideal."

Rainbow's End Resort on Rainbow Lake

10/10 Excellent

"Rainbow's End Resort is located on Rainbow Lake as advertised. It has small quaint fishing cabins, docks, watercraft for rental, and live bait for purchase. It was a perfect place for our family of four to spend time together and fish. We did not have unrealistic expectations of the cabin, it is rustic and very cozy. It was perfect for 2 normal size adults and 2 kids. One queen bed and a bunk bed. Larger individuals might be cramped. The cabin had everything we needed including dishes, utensils, BBQ utensils, small stove, and grills outside the room. The kitchen is small but efficient, and we preferred to eat outside at the picnic table just in front of the door/patio deck anyway, so the kitchen size was not an issue for us. We were there to enjoy the outdoors, cooler temperatures, fish, and not stay in the room. Patio deck chairs are so comfortable. Chuck left the keys with directions on office door. He was available during the day at the watercraft rental, if you had any questions he could be reached by telelphone when needed. We had no issues. He recommended some good local places for dinner and we enjoyed the Tipsy Hippy Grill and Lovely Bear Cafe. We rented a 4 person paddle pontoon, which is highly recommended if you can paddle. The lake is so pretty. The kids caught 8 catfish. We thought the whole experience was excellent for our family and can't wait to come back next summer!"

Elms Cabin at Lazy Oaks Resort

8/10 Good

"Pros: It was a nice, scenic site and everyone staying in the other cabins were good guests. The cabin and site was one of the cheapest options available. The owners/managers of the property were very responsive when we had questions, and quickly responded when I called about the TV remote batteries being dead.Cons: The cabin was a little older and more worn down than we expected from the pictures. Some of the screens need to be repaired and while the cabin overall was clean, it would be nice if they cleaned the spider webs out of the windows periodically."

Luxury Waterfront Cabin at Rainbow Lake w/AC, Hot Tub, Game Room, Dock

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was great again! This was our 3rd time staying at the cabin and as always, it was wonderful. The cabin has everything you need and the location is second to none. Already planning next year's trip!"

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

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great stay at this lake house at Rainbow Lake! The home was clean, well-stocked, and had plenty of room for our group. It's perfect for families, with lots of space to spread out and relax.We rented a boat and kept it at the dock during our stay, which made fishing easy and fun...we caught 67 catfish in just 3 days! We also enjoyed seeing bald eagles and blue herons around the lake. The private deck was a great place to unwind and take in the beautiful sunsets each evening.Excellent fishing, great location, and a wonderful place to make family memories. We'd definitely stay here again!"
