We had a great time at Ruttgers! There are definitely a few things they could do as easy upkeep— like a lot of the buildings need a good pressure wash and paint, but it’s been great to see the improvements over the years! And the restaurants at the resort are high priced for the “vibe” (flys everywhere because they leave the doors wide open) and service isn’t the best, but the food is good.

We had a great time! The property and lake were gorgeous, the staff was exceedingly helpful and friendly. They had fantastic amenities! The condo was nice, very spacious, but a little run down. The screens were damaged, so the mosquitos came in at night, and I would recommend additional plates, silverware and perhaps salt/pepper in the units with full kitchens. I would definitely go back!

Fun Resort

We were in the North Bay and this lodging needs updating! Old couch, blinds, toilet seat, screen doors and crack in the ceiling. The resort itself is beautiful with many great activities. Nice outdoor pool, beach and indoor pool.

Brill was a very nice young man who worked in the marina. He was super helpful and pleasant to be around.

Fabulous staff. Great food and service! It was very unfortunate that the pool was closed as it was one of the reasons I booked the resort. My teenage son and his friend loved the golf course and range! Beautiful surroundings! For the price, I would have appreciated a daily cleaning of the room, sheets and towels.

This is my 4th visit to Ruttgers. We stayed in a room in the Five Pines. Very basic. I liked the other rooms better. I think they are slowly upgrading the place. No hair dryer as it states or I would of brought my own.

Friendly staff. Great service. Place is in need of some upgrades, but theyve already begun the work. Some more evening/late night dining options would be nice. Very affordable though. I would definitely come back. Beautiful area!

I liked that the resort provided all sorts of activities, even ones I'd never heard of. I did not like that it's 9-hole golf course and outdoor swimming pool were closed for repairs.

Yes, it’s an old cabin, functional, and has a decent lake view but it’s over priced like everything else on the property. It’s shoulder season and we were part of a wedding party so we shouldn’t be paying what seemed like normal rates, especially when check-in was changed to 5:00pm and half the facilities were closed or had limited hours. The resort needs some upgrades to match their charges. Its dark, dirty windows, sidewalks are uneven, cracked, and not well lit. Staff was very good.
