The best-kept secret about lake life?
It’s just as magical on a Tuesday.
At Balsam Lake Lodge, weekends tend to get all the attention—but those who visit us during the week know there’s something extra special about the peace and quiet that settles over the water once Sunday night rolls around. Whether you’re looking for a romantic escape, a work-from-anywhere retreat, or a much-needed reset between busy weekends, a midweek getaway offers all the same charm, without the crowds.
The Perks of a Midweek Escape
The lake feels like it’s yours.
Enjoy the serenity of early mornings on the shoreline, paddleboarding or kayaking with barely a ripple in sight. Watch the sunset from your private patio with no distractions—just the sound of loons echoing across the water.
Lower room rates and better packages.
Weekday stays come with built-in value. Take advantage of our Date Night Package (starting at just $189) which includes dinner for two, a one-night stay, a bottle of wine, and late checkout. Midweek travelers also enjoy easier booking flexibility, meaning you can snag your favorite suite before the weekend crowd arrives.
More one-on-one service.
When things are a little quieter, our team has even more time to personalize your experience—whether that’s suggesting a local hike, arranging a romantic dinner under the lights on the patio, or surprising you with dessert by the fire.
Exclusive weekday activities.
Our weekday calendar is full of laid-back fun—from Monday night bingo to live music, line dancing, trivia nights, and more. Pair that with happy hour specials, seasonal menus, and lake views, and you’ve got yourself the perfect weeknight plan.
Ideal for Every Type of Traveler
- Couples: Sneak away for a spontaneous night by the lake.
- Friends: Enjoy a girls’ getaway with wine, laughter, and zero wait times.
- Solo travelers: Treat yourself to some quiet time—read, relax, recharge.
- Remote workers: Our suites offer comfortable workspaces with high-speed Wi-Fi—plus, the best lunch break views in Wisconsin.
