Right off the main road so easy to find. Easy check in and friendly staff. It was a comfortable stay although heaters could use some updating. I wanted to warm up the room a bit so I turned on the heater. It made such a strong odor I had to turn it off and open a window.

Property is older and does not have much updated. The bathroom window panel was broken. The furniture was old. The tv had to reset every time we turned it on. They charged 35$ extra to have a dog per night which was higher then others. It did have a hair dryer and microwave and coffee maker. It was quiet too.

Never again
Stayed here twice before and had great experiences. This last stay will be my last. Room was “half cleaned” no towels, toilet paper, soap, garbage bags or fridge. I understand maybe it was forgotten but getting these items was insanely difficult. Apparently towels were all dirty and it appeared supplies were out since I ended up on a search with property manager trying to find things.

This is a thrifty motel. No extras here. Price is very fair and the staff was friendly and helpful. We knew what we signed up for. It is directly across the street from the Paul Bunyan Trail and we stayed at different places along the way to ride as much of it as we could. Try the DamSite restaurant just up the road in downtown Pine River. We would stay here again.

A Perfect Place to Catch Some Sleep
Just a short stop in Pine River for a sleep before heading further north. The Pine River Inn is conveniently located, well priced, very clean, and served the purpose well. The property is under new ownership and the management is terrific....so friendly, so accommodating, and they LOVE small dogs. If you're up that way and need a place to lay your head, I'd highly recommend giving the Pine River Inn a try.
