We enjoyed the fire pit a lot. The room was satisfactory, missed having a tv, a little bit. The ceiling tile in the bathroom kept falling down. We would probably stay here again, though. Its a beautiful spot and close to Ely.

I loved the location and it was quiet and close to the river! Parking was a little cramped and our coffee pot was broken. Other than that it was very nice!

Theresa

Liked: Amenities
Was ok - stayed 2 nights but no breakfast/food despite a restaurant on the property. Had to walk down cement stairs to get to room. Could not enjoy view or open windows due to heavy smokers being outside quite frequently. There are talks about this property being torn down this fall.

Loved that it is closed to Ely, but outside, so it feels like a little remote resort. Nice bar, with locals that stop by for happy hour.

Liked: Staff & service, amenities
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Outside of some newer carpet, it didn't look like the place had been updated since the 1960's. NO TV or WIIFI. Lumpy old beds (probably original mattress), Old uncomfortable chairs and sofa/sleeper bed, Worst night of sleep I've had in a long time.

Kristin

Beautiful stay. Cabins look like they are straight out of the 1970s which I thought added a nice touch to it. Appliances all worked well and was comfy. Very clean inside, and the area around it was really beautiful. We will most likely be back as we go up north to Minnesota once or more times a year.

It will be very nice when fully renovated, but worked great for what we wanted. Nice view of the lake set in the woods. Badic but clean accommodations.

they advertise Internet, but there is no Internet in the rooms. They should clearly state that. They could easily update the furniture and carpeting in the rooms. Also the steps leading down to the bottom level of the building needs to be replaced for safety reasons.

Hey, it’s a little run down, but it’s clean and everything works. The bed and bedding were great and it was one of my most comfortable sleeps in any hotel or resort. I had a lovely view and didn’t want to leave. I’m picky and wouldn’t have chosen it if there were more options this week, but this was a very good experience and I will be looking to book here again for sure.
