We welcome you to Birch Ridge Resort!
Our resort was originally founded over 70 years ago in 1932 by the Huddlesons, followed by the Oehlers who took over in 1941.
Birch Ridge Resort has been in this family since 1971. We are the second generation taking 
over from the Tiggemanns. Having lived the fast life in the Windy City, Frank and Ann wereready to retreat to the resort in 1995 with their kids, Gina and Joe.
We take pride in our clean cabins, friendly staff and well manicured grounds. As your hosts, we strive to make you feel at home while you’re relaxing and creating fond memories.
