As the self-proclaimed Snowmobile Capital of the World – the World Championship Snowmobile Derby is held each January – and the Hockey Capital of Wisconsin – the Pond Hockey National Championship is played in February – Eagle River might be thought of as a winter sort of place.

But folks here would argue otherwise, and a chain of 28 lakes where visitors can fish for muskies and 18 holes where golfers can hunt for birdies make for a strong counter case, one welcomed by the thousands of visitors who come to Eagle River every summer with golf clubs in the trunk and a boat on the bumper.

Eagle River Golf Course head professional Tony Sable took the job only a few months ago after five years at the Wilderness Club resort in Montana but he hails from northern Wisconsin and knows the vacation drill as well as anyone.
