"New owners just took over the hotel, so several things that weren't taken care of, I easily overlooked. For example, the pool was not open, but I found out that it hadn't been open for 7 years! The staff, however, was friendly and competent. My room was very clean and the a/c was wonderful! I have a feeling that with new ownership this hotel will do very well and I will be back again!"

"Came in with our family of 8, ages 9-22. The availability of kayaks, paddle boards, fire pit, hottub and sauna kept everyone busy. Cooked all of our meals, as the kitchen is nicely stocked. The cleanliness of the house and property were top line! We pulled our own boat up, and although the water by the dock is shallow, we had no issues keeping it docked for the week. Caught a nice amount of fish...crappie and bass were keepers. 17" bass was our largest catch. Daily drives into Duluth to see all the sites made the trip busy, but well worth the time!"

"Everything was clean and orderly. The room was smaller than a hotel room. More like a bedroom. The bed was very soft which for me was very uncomfortable. I had trouble turning on the television. After doing some troubleshooting I called the front desk and got voicemail. It said the pool and hot tub were closed due to construction. It also said they would call me back. They called an hour later and came up immediately. She got the tv on. After she left I still couldn’t get the remote to work and finally figured out that it was set up for voice commands and most of the buttons were useless. Anyway, while I was walking down a hallway I saw the pool and noticed people swimming. It was evening the day before I checked out so I didn’t get to use the pool. I was able to relax, though so I did accomplish what I went for."

"Great camper in an easy to find spot. Easy access from car to camper. Quick walk down to the river on the back of the property. A/c worked great, yard games available, No cell or WiF- so phones did not work at all-which was just fine for most of us but one teenager was devastated. Nice to be able to bring our dog with us."
