I swear this isn't just because I was sleeping in a tent for the previous week. The showers and excellent water pressure and the bath and body works products were perfect for returning to human form post camping trip. They even provide rags for any extra dirty clean up which I know is to dissuade guests from using the towels for this, but it is still a nice touch. There was no extra charge for the wifi, and it was extremely fast! I was even able to upload all the pictures from the trip in a very short amount of time. Usually on hotel wifi this is an overnight process. The included breakfast was great! The omelettes were tasty, and the make your own pancakes machine was fabulous! I do want one of those for my house...push button.. machine makes pancake! This is a great place to revive after a wilderness adventure!

The bathroom was clean and spacious. Only downside was the staff. For the most part, they were all great. The last day we stayed we heard multiple staff members complaining about there jobs. Not sure if something happened but there is a place and time for that. They knew that they were in earshot of guests and continued anyways. Not very professional.

An incredibly different (odd?) restaurant on an incredible piece of property on White Iron Lake…read more The food was decent, but the place has an odd supper club, old-timey vibe that just felt kind of out of place. Of course, that's a pretty subjective view, so take it with a grain of salt. The property is beautiful though, especially the area near the lake. Place feels like it has way more potential. Visit and make up your own mind about the place. Interesting if nothing else.

Entertaining live accordion and button box music may accompany your meal thanks to Dr. U and friends. This place is quite unique-chalet style lodge, restaurant and bar with very nice rooms to rent.

We had our wedding ceremony and reception here (Sept 2014) and it was AMAZING. We got married on…read morethe lawn between the barn and the lake, afterwards our guests headed inside for drinks and dinner. We ended our night playing yard games outside and making s'mores around a fire. It was a great time! Larson's Barn has a beautiful dance floor that we used for our first dance. Kathy is very easy to work with, even when we got there late to set-up the day before. There was a frost warning the day before the wedding and Kathy was sure to cover all of the flower beds. The next day although jack frost had come through all of the plants and flowers looked great. Since our entire group was from out of the area we also rented the small cabin and the under the barn apartment for the weekend. It was great for all of the bridesmaids and groomsman to be onsite, less stressful for everyone. We even had a hairstylist come out to the barn to do the girls hair. Everything was very convenient for being in the country of MN.

This biggest frustration was my sister paid a pretty hefty price for this place for the weekend and we couldn't get in until noon the day the wedding...why you ask, because they were showing it to another couple after we spent the entire day before decorating it for my sister's big day...I would not recommend this place to anyone

My most recent visit was during their Holiday Club pop-up event with holiday-themed drinks. My group tried the salted sour, cookie butter old fashioned, and Mama Nancy's Xmas punch. All the drinks were fantastic, but my favorite was the cookie butter old fashioned. It was perfectly made and not too sweet. They've got the space nicely decorated for Christmas. It's wonderfully cozy! The staff are friendly, too. Only one person was working when we were there, and she did a great job balancing all of the customers. Be sure to check the hours on their website/social media before you go. They seem to be a little varied.

Very impolite, granted I walked into the bar an hour after close. This still doesn't excuse what…read morehappened! When your establishment is closed you need to lock your doors, not act like jerks. To elaborate I was sober and in my right mind, just trying to get a feel for the numerous bars in Superior WI. I walked in it was 11:03 and they said they closed at 10 and the coworkers were in the bar having a drink. I lingered for a moment to see what beers they have on tap, in case I wanted to come back. Don't worry about It, I won't be! I said I liked the Celebration Ale by Sierra Nevada, then one of the gentleman ubruptly stood up and said "that reminds me I will show you out and lock the door behind you." The only explanation is, they must of thought I was a drunk because that's how I was treated. I perceived his FU tone of voice, and felt completely degraded to be ushered out the door. I wish I could of given them the zero star rating. The way I was handled gives me the feeling that this establishment has a superioriry complex. Your are mistaken the Lake is Superior, but your attitude was perceived as appallingly rude by this potential customer!
