Always a fun time in Ski Brule Village :)

We love all the space at the Nordic Haus and have been coming back for many years. The hot tub is great and it's super close to the ski hill. The hosts are always helpful and attentive to any questions or requests we have. 10/10!

Family Ski

This is our the third time staying at Nordic Haus.I have to be honest it was going to be our last if the living room furniture wasn't updated much to our surprised there were new couches !!! We'll booking for next year. We love the convenience to the hill. The large living room is great for the family to gather. There were 8 adults and 5 kids. Most of the beds are really comfortable. The hot tub is great. Kitchens are well stocked. We are looking forward to next year.

The house was perfect for our family which included our children and grandchildren. With the hot temperatures that week, the upstairs was tough to cool down but we did enjoy the heat during our stay.

Very nice cabin and location

We were very happy with our stay at the Nordic Haus. Check in and out was very easy. It’s nice to have a hot tub to soak in and gives the kids something to do at night because skiing closes by 4pm. The only thing was it says it’s 6 bedroom but it’s only 5 bedroom and then has two beds in the loft. The loft is basically part of the living room so we couldn’t have anyone sleep in those beds or they would be kept awake at night by the noise and then woke up early with any early risers making coffee and breakfast. But we would stay here again and would recommend it to friends and family.

Fantastic Family Vacation

This was our 2nd stay at Nordic Haus. We absolutely love it. Is very well equipped in kitchen, bathrooms, extra blankets & pillows. Always very clean. We all use the hot tub at night. Our kids think it’s the best thing for the 15 mins. we allow them to be in there. We already booked for next year & can’t wait. Just hope there’s more snow next time. Thank you so much for a lovely vacation stay.

We had a great stay

Overall we had a great stay! The good: Hot tub was awesome, clean and was great to sit in after a long day of skiing. The beds were reasonably comfortable/clean. Each room had a thermostat which was great. The house was big which was nice for togetherness and alone time as needed. The house is right next to Ski Brule at a much more reasonable rate than their offered lodging. The "bad": as mentioned in previous reviews the furniture is pretty beat up but honestly not that bad. The carpet was really stained (which made me a little nervous about overall cleanliness), the sauna door doesn't seal so wasn't really worth turning on, some of the non stick kitchen pans were scratched so bad I felt uncomfortable cooking on them. We did have a great stay though and with a little extra planning on our part we would absolutely stay again. The hosts are nice and so is the caretaker. The view from all the windows was absolutely lovely and it was very quiet. I would absolutely recommend to any group of folks traveling to Ski Brule.

Plenty of room, beds were ok, and furniture is sub par

We had a smaller group and had some friends come over for dinners from another cottage. We made the second level our gathering area. As you can read in some other reviews - the furniture on the second level is terrible. The three couches all are very uncomfortable, and so is the easy chair. we actually brought in a few lawnchairs from my van to use, and we brought up the wooden benches from the lower level kitchen instead of sitting on the couches. I usually don't like to leave negative reviews, and I understand the cottages here get used and abused.....maybe this review will motivate the owners to take the couches to the curb.

Lovely place!

The size and arrangement of sleeping was great. All of the beds were comfortable and everyone slept well. The second floor furniture is, to say the least, worn but more like broken down. The couches and chair were nearly unusable. Regardless we have booked for next year and look forward to returning.

About the host

Hosted by Alison & Brian

Host profile image
We're a close-knit family living in the Midwest that really treasures togetherness, making loving memories and healthy, wholesome fun.

Why they chose this property

We have a large family and extended family. This property allows multiple families to be close together and really share each other's company. Nobody has to jump in a car or go back to a sterile hotel room in the middle of the evening. Family and friends can hang out as late as they want and retire to their beds a few steps away.

What makes this property unique

The surroundings are serene, pure and breathtaking. Ski Brule has one of the earliest starts and latest ends to skiing in the Midwest. And, excellent fishing and hunting are nearby. The town of Iron River can provide golf, restaurants, groceries or antiquing just a few minutes away. This property also boasts a hot tub, sauna, scenic deck and fire pit. It's also great for large groups and multi-family outings. It also has two full kitchens and two bathrooms. Nordic Haus is also just a few 100 yards from one of the county snowmobile trails (#15). So it's ski-in/ski-out, and snowmobile-in/snowmobile-out.
