This is our 2nd season up at Eagle Ridge Resort in our 5th wheel trailer. We absolutely love it up here. The fishing is great and the view from our windows are picturesque. The owners are friendly and are always there when we need them. We will be back again next year.
What a wonderfully friendly and comfortable resort! Janine and Mark were kind and helpful! This was our first time and our adult daughter described it well: It seems Like we’ve always been going there. Eagle Ridge Resort has a variety of cabins to choose from. We are looking forward to renting one of the 4-bedroom next year! Nice docks and boat launch. Fishing was good (two dinners worth)! Highly recommend this for a family friendly stay! The Tuesday resort-wide pot luck was a fun way to get to know the other families!
I can’t rave enough about Eagle Ridge Resort! It’s an amazingly beautiful, family-friendly place with the most warm and welcoming owners! Mark and Janine are both hospitable, and kind-hearted people that treat everyone like family and are always there anytime we needed them! The cabins are well-maintained, the seasonal sites are so calming and tranquil (my happy place), the neighbors (seasonal sites) are friendly, the walking path is beautiful and such a fun adventure where you can view the eagles nest where the family of eagles reside in; You will see them flying over the lake and the campground daily! The kids enjoyed swimming and jumping on the water trampoline. There’s kayaks, canoes, paddle boards, and peddle boats that the kids really love to use. Fishing is always fun especially when you find the schools of bluegills! So many wonderful memories!!! Thank you guys for the most amazing 2 years ever!! We will most definitely be back!
2014 - Our family just finished our 8th annual week long trip at Eagle Ridge Resort and it was another wonderful time - growing from only 8 adults our first year to 9 adults and 8 children this year. The weather didn't cooperate with us to start the week but it didn't slow our kids down from having a great time. We caught plenty of fish, went on pontoon rides, enjoyed the playground, observed all sorts of wildlife, swam and even got to relax a little because we could let our kids play on their own while always being within eyesight. The owners continue to be very accommodating each year making sure we enjoy our time there. We are excited for next year, especially with the planned renovation of the swimming area. 7/11/19 - We just enjoyed our 13th annual family vacation at Eagle Ridge Resort - another wonderful time! We are now up to 10 adults and 11 kids. We have stayed the last couple years in the new cabin and it fits us perfectly with space to all be together. We booked the cabin again for next year - when we left everyone was already looking forward to coming back next year.
Have been a seasonal occupant for a few years now, and love coming back every time. Mark and Janine are very nice, respectful and helpful. They always ask how things are going and if we need help with anything. I also have respect for how they look out for everyone there, either staying over night or for extended time. One of the big reasons I stay is it’s more of a quiet camp resort, perfect for families and people looking for a quiet retreat. They have all the amenities myself and family may need, the laundry machines, the small store at the office, extra fishing supplies and rods, wood for campfires and more. I recommend this resort to anyone who is looking for peace and quiet with all the amenities one might need.
My family has been making an annual trip up to Gull lake since before I was born. I have stayed at many resorts over the years and, by far, this is the nicest of them. The owners keep the place up very nicely with very clean, well kept cabins of a variety of sizes to fit your needs. They go out of their way to make you feel at home. There are multiple options available for boating and fishing and they keep a nice stock of paddle boards and kayaks available for the use of the guests. I like this place very much and will continue to go back to it year after year.
Went up here to do some grouse hunting in the vincinity. Had a great time! Very dog friendly (if you pick up and they don't bark incessantly, as ours do not). Kind owner and very responsive to any minor issues we had. Beautiful lake, too!
Had a very good experience with this resort. Owners were very nice. Cabins are nice and clean. Rented a very nice 16’ foot boat with them. Fishing was great.
Overlooking Gull Lake, this laid-back, wooded resort lies 5.4 miles from downtown Tenstrike and 5.6 miles from Castle Highlands Golf Course.

Short, honest notes are more useful than long ones. A few sentences about what worked, what surprised you, and who the hotel is best for will go a long way.
