Reserved a king room, because I have a service dog they downgraded me to two queens. They state they don’t allow “pets” in king rooms, i advised that my dog isn’t a pet but rather a service animal. After the front desk contacted the owner, it made no difference. They then charged me more than the quoted Expedia price. No safety bolts or chains on the room doors, opens with a key. Beautiful rooms and property otherwise.

Staff was friendly and helpful. Inn was across from the lake in a pleasant setting. Dining options were close by. The room was serviceable and everything worked properly. The building interior was dated and a bit shabby. The beds were too soft and lumpy instead of firm. Continental breakfast items were unhealthy- gooey donuts and sweetened juices. We drove into Iron River in search of coffee.

Awesome owners

We had a golf trip planned with 5 other couples and booked this place as it had a nice outdoor area where we could relax and rehash our day of golf. Well weather didn’t cooperate The owner was nice enough to offer a room to use away from other guests so we wouldn’t disturb them. Even offered extra chairs an a card table. This was perfect just needed a place to unwind for an hour or so. Rooms were spotless and decor was adorable. Comfy beds and a wide variety for a continental breakfast. Recommend this adorable inn

Worth the drive

The check in was great, very friendly. The motel was an older building but well maintained. The grounds and location cant be beat. Views of the lake and easy walk to lake and park.
