We arrived in the dark and had to leave early in the morning so really didn't get to see much of the property. Arriving in the dark was...dark! Lighting around property was limited it seemed. We had lot of stuff to unload from our truck and our room was in the back. We used the access road in back as there was no instruction on map as to how to get to the back. There was no lighting at back of building or on stairs going up to our room which also didn't have any lighting at the door. Luckily we had flashlights. Bed was comfy but the overall look of the place was that it needed a bit of sprucing up. Freezer door in fridge was broken. Cabinet door wouldn't close due to panel above it was broken also and had slid down. Top of stove fan needed cleaning. Just lots of little things that if taken care of would make a huge difference in appearance. But not bad place to stay for a night

Loved that it is closed to Ely, but outside, so it feels like a little remote resort. Nice bar, with locals that stop by for happy hour.

The photos and room booked in line was not what was received. Light didn’t work pathway to room was dark. Beds were uninviting. Ceiling looked like it was about to fall in. Room was not worth the rental price.

Unit was out dated 80’s probably. never put a dime into it. Big crack in wall, no tv, bring your own drinking water. Big camper in front so no view of lake. We stayed a couple times in the past so can tell they don’t put nothing into the motel units. I sure hope cabins are better.
