White Oak Grill - Deerwood

Perkins style food and quality, overpriced because it’s next to a golf course.

First impression walking through the entry was nice other than a black track of dirt on the carpet to the dining room-calling into question how clean the dining room and kitchen might be. Nice views with big windows overlooking a pond and fairways. First annoyance-the table wobbled more than one inch…. That should be checked every morning. Nothing worse than drinks spilling and food flopping around when trying to cut it.Drinks arrived first- lemonade in a plastic cup and a can of beer- had to ask for a glass for the beer. No water even offered although wRer could be seen on other nearby tables. Open face steak sandwich and thick potatoe chips described as fries, but no, I don’t think so. The Cobb salad looked like the lettuce and fixings were prepared earlier in the day- if not the day before and covered with plastic wrap. Big old white core of the lettuce buried in the salad; the blue cheese dressing looked like translucent goop from some generic food service; a few chicken slices no more than 3 ozs was the protein on the salad other that rubbery, grissely pieces of bacon.Another place crossed off my bucket list . Have a cabin nearby but would happily drive 3-4 times farther in hopes of finding a better meal. That shouldn’t be too hard. My recommendation- a hard pass.Ordered a craft beer and she slides a can onto the table… had to ask for a glass.

To be determined for 2023. Ownership and management change was needed after Ruttger family sold the resort. Announced that PE Blackburn/Minneapolis and managed by its resort management firm, Odyssey Resorts (out of Duluth). Hoping for nice enhancements. *Jack’s 18 was awful last summer for the green fee changed. Looking forward to the NEW short course this summer.

The food, service, and deck/view here were all fantastic my wife and I truly enjoyed it!

Nice get away. First time here for a quick get away, will probably come back in the near future. The outdoor pool deck were closed because of future updates, hopefully next time they will be completed. We got a small cabin right on the water. Very cozy. There was barely any other people staying there so had the place to ourselves. I'm sure that changes after school is out. Very quiet, I liked that !
