The Inn at Maple Crossing is a beautiful Bed & Breakfast on the shores of Maple Lake. There are 16 rooms, and has a restaurant open to the public for lunch and dinner. (breakfast is reserved for guests)
(description from their website sums it up best)
Sumptuous fixed-price dinners, by reservation only, evening or Sunday midday, served 19th C. country inn style, like you have just come in on the stagecoach and "this is what we are serving tonight!"
Choice of two or three entree, featuring such specialties as London Broil, beef or buffalo sirloins, medallions of pork, stuffed pork chops, Chicken Supreme, chicken Florentine, walleye, parchment salmon, and vegetarian entree by request.
The owner/chef Jim, has some real culinary talent. His dishes are always well prepared...and are usually presented with a story of sorts. The perfectly prepared entrees originate from all over the world. Dinner is served, starting with a fantastic salad topped with their famous wild raspberry dressing and a basket of rolls. There is usually a soup course before the main entree as well. I especially like the wild rice soups. A dessert course follows, and is served along with coffee or tea. A nice selection of beer and wines is available as well.
Lunches are served daily, you can check the website for more info. Sunday midday meal is classic Chicken dinner.
You cannot beat the romantic atmosphere for a special night out with your significant other. The tables are candlelit, with linen tablecloths and napkins. A full four course dinner will run $21 per person plus beverage. The drive from Grand Forks area is about 1 hour to The Inn.
My recommendation is to reserve a room for the evening, and make reservations for dinner that night. You will then get the entire "Inn Experience"...and have a great breakfast as well. Enjoy! I give The Innkeepers Jim & Nancy high marks! read more
