They are updating rooms so that’s good. My only issue was the shower curtain smelled like mildew. I did have issues trying to call the desk because I was late and arriving at 2:00 am. Every phone number online sent me to a contracted reservation company that couldn’t help me. Luckily the front desk is manned 24hrs a day so late arrival was not an issue.

We have stayed here many times. This time was the first time disappointed in the breakfast. We stayed 4 nights, first morning breakfast was well supplied. But the next day was less and the following day was even less. No eggs, no milk no cottage cheese. Each day was getting slim pickens. (but they did go buy a half gallon of milk) The thing is it was the middle of the week not many people there. So they need to plan much better. Our room was very clean as well as the rest of the hotel. The lady at the desk (Char) was very friendly and helpful. She talked with the customers.

Stayed in a suite. Listed a hot tub but it really was a jacuzzi that was in disrepair. The water pump mot was so loud you could not stand to use it
No air conditioning in the bedroom just two portable fans. Really, no air in the bedroom. A window air conditioner in the other area.
All said it was clean and good maid service.
Very old hotel. Very dated. Needs a major face lift. I would not recommend.

The property had some serious maintenance issues. Our toilet wouldn't flush and the doorknob had to be replaced and then came off! The restaurant had serious flooding issues when it rained and flooded at least 50 sq. ft. of the restaurant as did other areas of the hotel! The room and bed itself was fine but we paid way more than what we got!

We stayed on the 2nd floor - next to the laundry room. When the washing machine was being used (by the cleaning people) our room 'shook' like an earthquake! The beds were shaking, the liquids in bottles were shaking, it was loud and annoying. We went to see what was happening and found out the washing machine needs to be replaced! I don't know when that will happen. There is a sign on the machine that says not to use it after 8:00 p.m. or before 10:00 a.m. because it's annoying to guests!! One dryer (I think it was a dryer) had a sign \"out of order\". The first floor rooms have been renovated but are not much better than the 2nd floor. The room was a nice size but the bathroom (sink was outside the toilet and shower) was musty smelling.

Great Northern was in the ideal location for our vacation stay, and has enjoyed a reputation as a good place to stay that's not too terribly expensive. It was the first and really only place we considered, given these qualities.

Upon arriving we discovered that the facility is a little careworn in spots, with a window screen in our room that wasn't attached properly, some painting needed inside and out, and another guest who reported finding what they thought was dried dog vomit on the carpet (and didn't want that to be blamed on their dog). There weren't many outlets in our room (compared to the number of devices we and the kids needed to charge), the mattresses were overly firm and showing their age, and having only a hot tub and no pool or readily visible access to the lake in back was a bit of a letdown.

All that being said, it was a nice home for a few days. We barely heard anyone in neighboring rooms, nor even the bar/restaurant downstairs and down the hall from our room. Parking was quick and easy, the bedding was clean, and the shower water warmed up instantly. Although we didn't need them, there were other amenities that cater to motorsports enthusiasts and pet lovers alike.

The staff was excellent and very friendly. We were in room 257. The beds were hard and well woke up both mornings with back aches so we were tired both days of our trip. The shower head was low and I had to bend down to wash my hair and I’m 5’7”. The carpet was stained and the light fixtures were loose along with the door knob. I’m not sure I’d stay again.

Good night

It was pretty good. Maybe a better breakfast and the paddle boats were not in great shape

I enjoyed my stay very much. I had a room with a lake view which was beautiful! The staff was very friendly and the room was very comfortable and clean!

Our room was very damp and only halfway cleaned. The carpet Smelled like mold, and was wet. Some rooms were allegedly remodeled, but ours and our friend’s were not. It was definitely not worth the money.
On the bright side, the woman who worked the Free breakfast area was very sweet. But I will not stay there again.

The TV in the room flashed on an off every 15 seconds. Asked the staff about it and was told they were working on it. Stayed on a Monday, left for one day and returned on Wednesday and still the same problem.

Not a good stay

Rusty shower, ripped carpet, no elevator, bad mattress, tv kept going out every 30 seconds. Breakfast was cereal and frozen sweet rolls.

Beautiful lake, great fishing and you can use their pedal boat/canoe/rowing boat. It can get a bit loud in the later afternoon with bar and patio outside plus ATVs but we weren't inside too much. Rooms are updated, nice lake view if you don't expect anything fancy you'll be good

Front desk lady wasn’t super friendly. The room was large and clean. From the outside we were skeptical, but the hotel was nice inside. Pool and hot tub were not working. Food was good in the bar. We did feel like the room cost too much money for what we got.

Best thing about this hotel is the attached restaurant/bar. Very goods drinks and food at a responsible price. Wish the hotel had a better breakfast. You could tell the bagels and english muffins were sitting out a few days as they were rock hard. Hot fresh coffee by 4:30am every day was much appreciated. Staff was very friendly. Rooms were super clean but could use a little cosmetic work.

I stayed in the suite and it was amazing. The bar n grill food was excellent and really affordable. My room was incredible and having the lake with a beach right there. I could have stayed much longer and will absolutely come back.
