We loved the outdoor fire pits! We don’t have that at home so it is very nice to enjoy a bonfire with the sounds of waves near us. It was very relaxing 10/10! The staff here were very very lovely. The grill was good although we were getting very tired and was waiting for our check for about 15 mins. Otherwise everything was amazing!

Bed was a pull out couch. Which may have been in the description and I missed it.. The “hot tub” was a bathtub with jets. Just not “as nice” as expected, but it was definitely worth it. The view and balcony on the shore, listening to the waves and having a fire going in the fireplace- it was perfect.

I always eat here on my way through to Lutsen, this was the first time staying. The rooms were excellent, the staff was extremely friendly and pleasant. It was still spring temps and the outdoor hot tub was absolutely perfect after a long day of chasing waterfalls!

The room was fairly clean and the bed was comfortable. That is the best part of this property. However, we did not care for the dingy staircase without a light. (Surprise to us we had to climb stairs to our room with our luggage). The room was in need of some updates. The shade did not work properly. There was no fan in the bathroom. The carpet was old and there was a stale smell in the hallway and room. Furniture was old and needed cleaning. The room was very close to the road and we heard traffic all night long. Didn’t care for the disjointed nature of the property. We had to drive to dinner or the (enclosed) pool/hot tub because the weather was cold, too cold to take the “boardwalk” imo, and there was snow right next to walkway/lake between sites/buildings. Might I suggest having a shuttle service between sites during cooler seasons. For the price we expected a little better. The staff was very kind and helpful! Probably will not return.

Staff was incredibly friendly. Not just a smile on their face, but did really seem like it was a joy to serve. Lots of positives about the resort and our stay (beautiful view, outdoor hot tub, restaurant) but staffing stands out above the rest. Very good experience.

The pool was unfortunately out of order, so the in room jetted tub was nice. You can beat the lake view rooms, however you are not on a side to access the water directly (no beach). We only stayed for a night, but wished we had taken advantage of one of their spring deals & stayed longer!
That view
Real wood fireplace in room!
Good food & drinks at the on site restaurant!
