A WINTER PLAYGROUND
A stay at POV Resort in the cold brings you to a winter wonderland. We are one of the best winter sports resorts in Wisconsin!
North Twin Lake is one of the nation’s premiere ice fishing lakes - wintertime jigging in the weed beds produces excellent results. Snowshoeing (POV rentals available!) and cross-country skiing are also is easily accessible via trails on the property. Great ski hills and cross-country ski courses are also nearby. Also within minutes of the resort are groomed indoor and outdoor ice rinks, day and nighttime sledding hills, and more hiking opportunities.
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 Phelps Trail (7.6 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.
