What DanielleW doesn't like about Balsam Lake Lodge:
Great Lake lodge restaurant location and ambiance for a casual meal or drinks. Fireplace indoor and outdoor fire pit. Our first time there and also the first time I’ve seen a working waiter robot. Fun to see!!! Will return in summer to enjoy the outdoors! Or the overnight lodging View all feedback. What Susann Puls likes about Balsam Lake Lodge:
Limited menu, mostly bar food. It seems Balsam Lake Lodge is mostly interested in the bar crowd, not guests interested in a good meal at a beautiful location. When will they get decaf coffee? View all feedback.

Our waiter was great but they were short staffed so service was slow. We had good company and we were not in a hurry.

Please match your menu on the web to the actual menu. One of our family members was looking forward to scallops, because they were on the web menu.

Bartender was new and clueless, which is fine if they were training her. They pretty much weren't.

It was great to have the patio open so early in the season. The service and food were both very good and we look forward to being back many times this summer.

Onion rings were great. Walleye fingers could have been seatmore.
