Spring

Who would have thought a week or so ago with all the snow we had, that it would all be gone now!!
The ice is all gone off the lake too, so fishermen, come on up! The weather has been unseasonably warm but we are expected to have rain. That is good, it will help freshen things up a bit.
More good news. We took up the carpet in the Gallery and put in a wood floor. I love it!

Leap Day Storm

What a day to remember!! It just didn't stop snowing. The drifts were 3 and 4 feet high! You can see when we plowed, how deep it was. Rhonda even sunk with her snowshoes!! Look at the second photo- that is our mail box!! Holiday Acres' lodge was pretty much lost too. The temperature is going up now so I don't how much longer it will last , but it sure is pretty. Come up and see for yourself and stay awhile.

Snowmobile/Valentine

Today is Tuesday morning and we are getting snow and they say more is coming!! The trails are being groomed, so the snow will really help. The nights are cold and the snow is holding.

Valentine's Day is coming up soon so make sure you bring your date to the best possible place!!
Chef Tom is outdoing himself with great mouthwatering entree's for the Saturday before (February 11th) and Tuesday the 14th in the 3 Coins Restraurant. There will entertainment both nights and if you come early, we have a 2 for 1 cupid martini and a complimentary after dinner truffle! Ask bout our package to complete the evening.

`What a lot of fun this race was to watch, especially the children's race. RASTA did a great
job in getting everything organized and on a timely basis. As you can see, everyone was
fitted for the correct size and a little bit of a lesson. Looking forward to next year!
It is snowing again today, so all of you snowmobilers come stay with Holiday Acres
and ride the many trails right from our front door.
Enjoy our 3 Coins Restaurant and lounge.

Breakfast Ride July 14 2011

BREAKFAST RIDE AT HOLIDAY STABLES, HOLIDAY ACRES, RHINELANDER, WISCONSIN JULY 14 2011








WOW! Today was my first Breakfast Ride with the resort. It was a terrific experience and one I hope to be able to do again sometime soon. If you have not taken the wagon or horses out to the "Old Farm" breakfast site, you must plan to do so next time you are here. We started out at Holiday Stables and about 9 of us plus a few with their smaller children rode to the site and the rest rode in the wagon driven by Cowboy Steve. One thing for certain, you always meet the nicest folks out on the trails here. I am hoping the parents riding together with their children can walk tomorrow!
By the time we got to "camp", Kim and his crew had the fire ready for making our Camp Toast. The eggs were cooking, pancakes were on the griddle, syrup was heating up, sausages were cooking, and our bread was ready for toasting. Even Max the family's Golden Retriever was on hand to greet us with a handshake and to supervise the operation. Of course we had coffee and juice ready too, and this cowgirl was happy for that. It was fun to toast your bread on a stick, over the campfire. The kids loved it but, I think the adults got a kick out of it too! If you put on the jam...WOW! A taste sensation that wakes you right up in the morning.
After a bit of the kids running around in the meadow and one of us with a full tummy lying on a log to take a short snooze, we headed back to the stables to chalk up another wonderful memory for us all.

Surprise Addition

Mother nature made a surprise addition to Holiday Acres the other morning! We were amazed to find a cute little new born fawn by cottage #14 Beachside. Fortunately, we had cameras handy to take some pictures, because mama came a little later to take her little one away from the hustle and bustle of the resort.

Wisconsin Fishing - Try It You'll Like It

Fishing just got better in Wisconsin.

For the first time, the state is offering a one day fishing license to those anglers who want to give Wisconsin fishing a try. Choose your water. Choose day. Choose your friends. It is that simple.

The cost of the one day license is $8 for residents and $10 for non residents. More information is available on the WI DNR website.

It's Your Day! Go Fishing!

Holiday Acres Jazz Camp

Great Jazz-Great Entertainment-Great Fun had by All

We just finished the Jazz Camp and it was one of the best ever! Everyone had a wonderful experience, learned jazz, and ate wonderful food prepared by our award winning Chef Tom!! The meals were always a time for story telling and a lot of laughter. The students were of all ages and backgrounds and from all over the US. One student has family that resides in Rhinelander.

We had solos, small group ensembles as well as the fantastic 2011 North Woods Jazz Camp Big Band!
