My boyfriend and I needed a place to stay close to work while apartment hunting, so we rented a…read moreroom at the Lakeview motel for a week. I figured it would be dirty and dumpy like most cheap weekly rate motels, but i was pleasantly surprised. Although it is an old motel, it is the cleanest motel I've ever been in. When they clean your room, you get all new bedding, fresh rugs and replace all the linens. Not just towels and sheets like other places. Thank God, there are not bugs here! They have a dock with really great fishing, a bonfire area, and I believe they even do small boat and kayak rentals. The staff have been wonderful. There is a laundromat on the property as well. If you need a place to stay for a week or two, you cant beat it for only 275$! I would stay here again in a heartbeat and definitely recommend it to anyone needing a temporary home.

Once we got to our room we were immediately overwhelmed with the smell of dirty socks and rancid beer. There was peanuts and trash on the floor and a "mystery" wet spot. To top it all off, someone's artificial nails were picked off and left in the nightstand. There was nowhere else for us to go because all places in a 50 mile radius were booked (Labor Day weekend). Needless to say, we spent most of the night in our car until we were exhausted and went and slept on the bed with our linens and pillows. In the morning, the awful smells were overpowering the tree air fresheners we had hung in the room. We left ASAP and will never go back, even if we were paid.

Fantastic concept all around! Located just 45-minutes from the Twin Cities, Nordic Harbor is a gem…read moreof a find offering overnight rooms, a market, rooftop patio and even pontoon rentals. My very first visit here was for Mother's Day when my mom suggested we check out the market and rooftop patio. I am so glad we did because I was instantly hooked by the entire experience from the cleanliness to overall transformation from a former beat down motel into a luxurious space. The market contains gelato, espresso drinks, cases of drinks from boozy to normal, Nordic Harbor apparel, frozen pizzas, little snacks such as cheese and meats and an opportunity to make your own charcuterie board. Think of the market as your home base or check in if you plan on renting a room. There is also a very nice bathroom in here. My favorite part? The intimacy. Nordic Harbor isn't trying to be the loudest, most overpopulated spot on the lake, rather, everything is crafted with intention and the Nordic theme of cozy and quiet in mind. I came back for Memorial Day weekend and did a 1-night overnight with a full 8-hour pontoon rental and everything was seamless. I booked every component of this trip online and it was even given a personalized call from the owner, Nic, when I had a few lingering questions. A special code will be provided via email to access your room on the lockbox as opposed to a key. Each room amplifies the Nordic "Hygee" concept mentioned above which includes a quaint space with no clutter. The room even comes with a binder book that helps describe the room layout with the goal of keeping clutter out. I appreciated the slippers, eye masks, Nespresso machines, dish wear, patio, coffee mugs, electric fire pit and quiet hours. Additionally, the entire bathroom was a vibe from the heated floors to the LED mirror to the hanging eucalyptus to the luxurious shower head and shower spray with full products available to use. This has been my favorite shower to date!! The market, outdoor patio and pontoon rentals are open to the public so there is a good chance that people you encounter might not necessarily be spending time overnight and that is the beautiful thing about this place! Our pontoon rental was seamless - zero issues. We had great assistance learning the ropes of the boat and then it was all very independent once the keys were given which we appreciated. Needless to say, I will be returning again for sure. Thank you, Nordic Harbor!
