Sweet Summertime at Black Bear Lodge

The sun is shining and the fish are biting here at Black Bear Lodge. This summer we have enjoyed great weather paired with various entertainment options. Some of our special events start with our featured performers at the Bear's Den Bar & Grill. Enjoy a fun filled night of karaoke with DJ Marvelous Marv every Thursday night. If singing isn't your style, we have great performances by JG Lightborne and Mark Wayne on every Monday, Tuesday and Saturday.

The fun doesn't stop there. Our campfire "Meet and Greet" is Sunday evenings, 7pm at South Point Campfire. This is a great way for our guests to get to know each other and make new friends. Professional fishing guide Fred Brogle helps answer any questions and gives out helpful fishing tips with his FREE fishing seminar at the Sunday campfire. Our guests can also enjoy s'mores by the campfire, with our children's activities director, Nikki.

It's no surprise that Nikki has been kept very busy this summer. From crafting to water play, the Black Bear children's summer program has been a great way for the children of our guests to learn and still have fun on the resort (meanwhile parents get some quiet time)! Children are free to choose the activities they wish to participate in, that way everyone can join at their leisure.

This summer sure has been sweet! Whether you enjoy fishing facts, roasting marshmallows by the campfire, or like to have your alone time on Little St. Germain Lake, we try to accommodate all of our guests needs, which makes Black Bear Lodge the ideal place for your summer vacation.

Emerald Ash Borer

We want to make everyone aware of how to stop the spread of Emerald Ash Borer! America's neighborhoods and forests are under attack. The Emerald Ash Borer (EAB) beetle has destroyed millions of ash trees. It lives in firewood. Move firewood and you spread the destruction. Help us protect the trees - and stop the beetle, when you have your family campfire. Promise you won't move firewood!

Out of the mouths of Children

One of the children from a family staying here in one of our cottages on Little St. Germain Lake in Wisconsin, came into the resort office today to tell us, "This vacation has been more funner than going to Disney Land!!!" He did everything from fishing, swimming, made S'mores over a campfire, biking, to playing on the private sand beach. He participated in our Children's Activities and even completed the Scavenger Hunt to be rewarded with an ice cream treat from the Bear Necessities Gift Shop.

Campfire

Guests at Black Bear Lodge will enjoy an old fashioned Campfire tonight. There will be mouth watering S'mores to enjoy at 8 pm.

July Resort Fun

There has been lots of fun happening at the resort this month! Kayak races, biking the paved St. Germain bike trail, fishing, family reunions and much more. Here are some photo favorites!

Misty Morning at Black Bear

I was out early this morning in search of loons. I saw an eagle and a heron but no loons this morning. This photo of the north point that separates South Bay and No Fish Bay of Little St. Germain Lake. The mist made for a beautiful scene.
