Hillside - Three bedroom with loft

Marilyn and Andy Einspanier have owned/managed Delta Lodge since 1990. During our ownership we have updated the grounds and cabins and built new cabins (#11, #12 and Hillside) in the tradition of Wes and Ike Rhinehart (original owners). We enjoy vacationers and their four-legged family members. We offer our knowledge of the area: hiking trails, mountain bike trails, fishing maps. Advice about touring the area including the Apostle Islands/Bayfield, waterfalls, antique/art/craft shops, wineries and restaurants.

We welcome you to Delta Lodge.

We looked at hotels and motels in Colorado and Montana initially, in the mid 1980s.

We came back the midwest with a reality check - the midwest values were much more within our budget. A realtor started sending us resort listings along with hotel/motel listings and a piece fell into the puzzle.

We toured over 40 properties in 4 years, on vacation, while we were employed as a salesman for test electronics (eddy current testing) and as a statistician for Illinois Bell (Ameritech). We eventually narrowed the possibilities to a few properties - Delta Lodge being among them.

Further pieces of the puzzle fell into place and here we are, almost 30 years later.

Lake Everett....

While almost everyone - owners/realtors - told us while we were touring properties that we needed to be on "big water." I am very happy that we ended up on a small lake (35 acres). This pristine glacier lake in the heart of Chequamegon National Forest is a unique treasure that has fostered human and animal life for thousands and thousands of years. (Artifacts prove that the ancients populated the area.)

This special lake and the forest and cabins have brought peace and family togetherness to many people who have visited us year after year. I feel thankful to be part of the process.
