    Pine River Inn - Being escorted to my room by the darling Miss Daisy

    Pine River Inn

    (4 reviews)

    From 5 stars to 0, such a shame…read more The five-star review was based on exactly one person: Nancy, who *was* Pine River Inn as far as we all were concerned. In the course of the two weeks since our visit, Nancy has quit her job at this establishment, citing lack of management ethics and respect. Given that we all saw Nancy managing the day-to-day operations from the moment we set out for our Harley-Davidson activation every morning all the way through the evenings as some of us scrambled for food and such for the night, I stand by Nancy and look forward to offering her a solid letter of recommendation once she decides on a wonderful new place to work at. Best of luck to the motel owners in replacing the invaluable asset that Nancy was to Pine River Inn. _____ I was in the area to represent Harley-Davidson at the Brainerd International Raceway for an event. Sounds glam? Sure does. Behind the scenes? That's 10-12 hours on your feet, on your A game with awesome smile and personality at the ready at 8 am sharp. I love events and often get nicknamed Energizer Bunny, Sunshine, and similar terms of endearment for the energy I bring. Keeping that energy going every day on a longer activation requires active recharging every night. This means my priorities upon returning every evening were: 1. soak in bath salts, 2. eat, 3. sleep. Every morning: Prep breakfast, prep lunch, prep hydration, get dolled up, scram for the nearly 30-minute trip to the raceway. Given this routine, I called Pine River Inn as soon as my Harley contract was confirmed to check whether my room had a microwave and fridge. Nancy answered the phone and opted to change my room not once, but twice, to give me the best possible option - not at my request. I arrived to find that Nancy had booked me the top corner room, gifting me with the peace of having only one potential neighbor, no possibility of anyone stomping around overhead, and, in a truly convenient move, a full view of my fellow ambassadors' hallway when I'd pull my curtains back in the morning so I could simply be prepared when they started leaving their rooms for us to carpool to the raceway in the morning without having to stand outside and wait in the chill of the morning air. As the agency takes care of bookings in advance, check-in was a breeze, and Nancy remembered me immediately. In gratitude for Nancy's gracious assistance in ensuring I had all I needed for an efficient stay even before I arrived, I'd brought chocolates for her, which she adorably commented on before I left for the raceway the next morning. Thanks to Nancy's care in ensuring I had the amenities I needed to streamline my self-care before and after the raceway every day, I was able to arrive with a full mini-fridge capacity's worth of nutritious meals and hydration already prepped for the week. This one change allowed my morning prep time to be greatly minimized, and I was able to spend my hours after the raceway letting my muscles relax with a long soak instead of wasting time ordering or shopping for and cooking dinners I didn't want. One purchase I did indulge in was frozen yogurt fudge bars to ease the heat, which I was able to buy a box of thanks to my mini fridge. I shared some with Nancy the next day. Miss Daisy, Nancy's adorable little pup, is the motel's, uh, guard dog, and does patrol walks around the perimeter every morning while Nancy takes care of housekeeping and maintenance. The little darling often visited me at my door, staying for love and scratches, and even walked me to my room once. How's that for hospitality? :P Over the course of the next several days, it became clear that our other Harley representatives had each had lasting impressions of Nancy and her endlessly warm, welcoming demeanor. Every single one of us brought Nancy up in conversation at some point, and every one of us visited the front office to bid Nancy goodbye before we each left, some with presents to give. We hugged in parting ways, with Nancy asking me to please be sure to come back next year. If I'm in the area still, I'll certainly do so. If not, though, I'm seriously considering poaching Nancy if I ever open a hospitality business again. Dear motel owner, I hope you pay Nancy well. You know she more than deserves it. PS: If you drop by and the front office is closed but there are open room doors with a cleaning cart or rolling laundry basket out, chances are Nancy is doing housekeeping. If not, knock on room 101. If not, try checking the laundry area tucked in the corner of the first floor of the L-shaped motel. Two people manage this entire operation, so please excuse their occasional absence, as they are absolutely lovely human beings catering to the motel's needs.

    When we showed up and checked into our room, we found the bathroom was flooded, fridge was nasty,…read moreroom smelled of smoke, and we found dried blood on a pillow! The sheets were also stained. We immediately checked back out, were told there were no other rooms and we needed to go through Expedia to get our refund. Expedia contacted them and the hotel is refusing to refund our money. Absolutely the worst place I've ever spent 20 minutes in.

    We really liked this place and would not hesitate to book here again…read more Pros: Nice quiet location with a super-friendly and helpful staff. Breakfasts were good and the place was really quiet at night. It also has a really nice, good-sized indoor pool. It's located just on the outskirts of the town so there's plenty of shopping and lake access in a very short walking/driving distance. Best of all, loons in the lake! Cons: The rooms, or at least the one we had, are a bit dated. Everything certainly looked clean, but definitely a bit worn down. One special note, for those getting the 'economy' room (307?); the bathroom needs some rework. The shower could fit 4 people easily, but the toilet is unbelievably low and is jammed into a corner, making the 'sit down' experience a bit of an adventure. I'm 5' 8" and 225 lbs., and it was definitely an 'issue.' If you're bigger than me, avoid this room until they redo the bathroom. Definitely not enough to take a star off, but something you and they should be aware of.

    At this hotel so that we would be near the scamp dealership where we went to go pick up our new…read morescamp 5th wheel. The hotel looks nice on the outside and the accommodations seemed clean and orderly. But, there was no ice in the ice maker and no hot water when we went to take a shower. Breakfast consisted of a paper bag filled with 3 sausages and a sandwich made of a muffin egg sausage and cheese that we microwaved in the Room. It was pretty tasty. All in all, I just couldn't bring myself to give this place even 3 stars. I also had to pay an extra $10 pet deposit bringing up the total amount I spent to $107 Which I feel was too much for a hotel that doesn't really supplied the things that are necessary. Won't be staying here again thank goodness.
