A stay at POV Resort in the cold brings you to a winter wonderland and the best of winter getaways in Wisconsin.
POV has premiere ice fishing, snowmobiling, snowshoeing. Nearby is super fun ice skating, downhill skiing, cross country skiing, sleigh rides, and more! We also have an awesome renovated rec room on site to warm up and have some fun indoors. Don’t delay…book today 😀
We offer great ice fishing on site – including ice fishing hut and gear package rentals. Also within minutes of the resort are groomed indoor and outdoor ice rinks, day and nighttime sledding hills and sleigh rides, and more hiking opportunities. Great ski hills (Ski Brule is only 35 minutes away — where US Olympic Medalist train!) and cross-country ski courses are nearby. Minocqua and Eagle River are also home to two of Northwood’s premiere winter parks, groomed winter wonderlands for outdoor activities. And within minutes of the resort is awesome shopping in downtown Eagle River! The area also hosts the World Snowmobile Championships, bringing 30.000 people to Eagle river as well as 2,000 competitors competing in the Adult Pond Hockey Championships.
POV Resort is also directly on the famous snowmobile trails of the Eagle River area – some of the best-groomed trails in the nation. The resort has access to two well-groomed snowmobile trails off of North Twin Lake – the Conover Sno Buddies Trails (80+ miles) and the Phelps Snowmobile Club Trails (40+ miles). Guests are encouraged to bring their own snowmobiles or have them delivered by a third-party rental service.
Some of the many activities available nearby POV Resort in the winter are:
For snowshoeing, we do have snowshoe sets for rent (women’s, men’s, children’s) at the resort. For more info on our winter gear rentals click here.
We also rent ice fishing gear and tents so you don’t have to bring your own!
For ski and snowshoe rentals, we recommend Eagle Sports Center, Hikers Box, or Walkabout Paddle & Apparel in nearby Eagle River or Sylvania Outfitters in Watersmeet.
For snowmobile rentals, if you don’t have a snowmobile sled of your own, or yours is on the fritz…guests are encouraged to rent a snowmobile from one of our third-party partners – 4 Seasons Powersports Rental (Conover), Trackside, or Toyshop in Eagle River. Rent from them and ride your sled back to the resort via connected trails (approx. a 20-30 min ride). You can schedule a ride back to Trackside with Allison’s Bar Car to get your vehicle 😀
