Northwoods Escape Room

Northwoods Escape Room is a must see experience for anyone living or visiting in all of the great Northwoods. We are conveniently located in Eagle River WI, Our unique games are designed with the area's history in mind, ...1920's gangsters moonshine shack, creepy taxidermy room, and what tourist town doesn't have a candy store (Grandpa's candy shop room)... There’s no easy way out; use your brains and get out in 60 minutes!

Three senior ladies and a 12-year old recently discovered the fun of escape rooms and we loved this one! We tried Grandpa's Candy Shop and, while we didn't solve it, we had fun working together trying to figure out the clues. The lady who runs it was so very nice and gave us as many clues as we asked for. At the end she showed us the solutions that we hadn't figured out. This is a one hour activity and while we did it on a nice fall afternoon it would be great if you're in lake country on a rainy day. Visitors and residents should all give it a try!

Tribute Brewery and Taphouse

Reviewed By WIamyjk - Milwaukee, United States

Tribute Brewing Company is an annual stop on our week of vacation to the Northwoods and my favorite has got to be the White Legs Jalapeno Wheat Ale. It's absolutely worth the wait every year. Pai a ping with some popcorn from the bar and you're in for a real treat.

This candy shop is so great. They make the candy in house. They have the best fudge. They also have the baskets of out of house candy where you pick and chose what flavors of salt water taffy you want. If you want you can mix in some other types of candy as well. They also offer chocolates. It is a little pricey but you get great quality.
