Everything about this place is so charming! Yes- there will be a wedding Saturday night but it hardly impacts your stay! It’s great to see the people dressed up and celebrating!

2/5 - Disappointing
Verified traveler
The Northstar Mine Powerhouse is way more informative and pleasing. State Park is overpriced and a bunch of scattered junk. Grounds are nicely landscaped.
