Dated resort, but clean and friendly with spectacular lake views and easy access to the water
jennifer, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

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.

Thank you
Troy, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

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!
Joleen, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Cute little room. Nice walk to the lake. Blueberry Mule was wonderful!!
Sheila, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

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.

8/10 Very good

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.
Kurt, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

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.
Theresa, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Super friendly staff. On a lake. Lots of people. Perfect for my low maintenance needs.
Laura, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Never at that place again

The place was supposed to be cabin but was old motel , no a/c no tv one little fan in room. Never again was misarable in 89 degree weather
Charles, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

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.
Jeffrey, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Cozy cabin at the loon's nest.

From past reviews not being so good. I was so glad I went and found out for myself. As it was perfect for what I was looking for, for a mini vacation. It looked to me as if there were a lot of updates that had been done! Quiet and cozy. I just don't recommend being there at fishing opener!!
Heather, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Even though we could only stay for a night we really did enjoy it! The area was cozy and very clean! I went down to explore the docks. The docks are in need of repairs or replacement. But i also understand getting to that can be difficult and pricey. I hope they can redo them soon! Otherwise we certainly would LOVE to come again. Maybe bring the kids when they are older also.
Kellie, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Not the cabin rented, pic's don't represent cabins maybe 15 year's ago. Not a friendly response at check in. Fireplace non-useable. Door don't shut or lock well.
john, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Bumped room

I was reserving a cabin not a motel room. When I made my reservation they sent me a picture of the cabin I reserved. When I got there they said oh no they only have a room in the motel. I said that was not what I reserved! I strongly believed that they bumped us to the motel room for a better reservation. That ticked me off. We heard the people upstairs all 3 nights!
Scott, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

There was no hand soap in bathroom or ANY soap for that matter. It was very dusty and odorous. Their website claims amenities that are either non-existent or not working. There is no sauna, no restaurant, no homemade pizzas. It was so bad we did not stay our second night even though we paid for it. My husband is such a grace giving man, he asked me not to say anything to the attendant and simply thank her. So we did. Please update website. This was super disappointing and it could all be remedied. What awesome potential and prime location. I hope my feedback is used constructively.
Celeste, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Unfortunately the property quality was not what was presented in the booking. The room had visible stains on the floor, no AC, very dated (rusty and broken) appliances. The couch had a piece of plywood to give it stability to sit on. Not that it’s necessary, but disclose it, there was no TV in the room either. We stayed on a rainy weekend and left the property early. Very uncomfortable.
