Pros: From the old saws in the entrance, to old fishing gear and lures framed on the hallway walls, Arrowwood made me feel like I was at a cabin way up in the north woods. Very clean, friendly staff, EXCEPTIONAL walleye dinner (great job, chef), I have only great marks to give the place (except it’s not way up in the woods, but a block off of Minnesota highway 371 in Baxter, but it’s still close to perfect got the price).

Pros: The room had good space to navigate the room. Bathroom had very good bars near the toilet. The wall mounted shower chair was study, but it was a bit small. The bars in the shower were strong, but it could use one or two more. Overall, it was one of the best for accessibility that I have found.

Cons: Ran out of waffle mix.

Pros: Comfy beds, good breakfast

Pros: We were totally unfamiliar with this area so we didn't have any idea what to expect. Room was clean, staff was so nice, helping us to locate a place to eat after we checked in at 10:30 on a Sunday! Shower was fantastic. Definitely a nice place for the price!

Pros: Bathrooms were clean. Breakfast was ok.

Cons: The bedding had what I can only assume was some kind of bodily fluid all over it. I honestly don't know how housekeeping could've missed it. It made us so uncomfortable. We got new bedding and as we were putting that on, under the sheets we found a cigarette butt. Seemed like that bedding hadn't been changed in a long time.

Pros: The location and the breakfast. Staff was nice.

Cons: The room was very small. I could hear the rooms next door. The window shades wouldn’t close all the way and was worried about being naked in the room. The TV stopped working halfway through my stay. The pillows were all firm. It would be nice to have an option. I also forgot my soap and used the bar of soap that was provided. The rest of the day my skin felt sticky and dried out. Upgrade to a bottle of body wash for that option. Also no DVD Player.

Pros: Very quiet and comfortable. That's what I like!

Pros: Friendly safe clean nice people that work there

Cons: Prove

Pros: Balcony

Cons: Deluxe room was very small

Pros: The facility was very clean. We had stayed at a different hotel the night before and this facility was much cleaner. We were there on a Friday night and it was relatively quiet. The staff were friendly. They have a small coffee area and a tiny “store” with snacks, supplies, and even pizzas you can bake on site. The pool area was nice although only 4 1/2 ft deep. The other benefit is they have “adult only” pool hours from 10pm-12am, so if you want to avoid screaming children, that can be utilized. If you have kids, they have a kiddie pool, and also a small game room. They also had a large whirlpool and a sauna. Nice perks. An exercise room is available, although I did not utilize that. The breakfast was okay and a typical continental breakfast. They had eggs, sausage, waffle makers, toast, cereals, muffins, bagels, toast, oatmeal, yogurt, fruit, coffee, and juices. You’ll find what you need.

Cons: The bed was “well used” and sunk in the middle. I had a spring digging into my hip. My husband and I both noted this. It just wasn’t super comfortable. We were in a king-sized bed. The food was nothing special and a rotting banana was noted in the fruit bowl. However, they had some variety and we left with full bellies and for that I am grateful. You have to do a u-turn when exiting as it is right turn only, making it a little inconvenient getting in/out. I feel it was a bit overpriced, especially when the bed was very uncomfortable.

Pros: Location was great. Staff is always friendly. I have stayed here 3 times. Will stay again

Pros: Comfortable beds , awesome pillows, clean, friendly staff. Good breakfast, very enjoyable stay .

Pros: THE STAFF WAS EXCEPTIONALLY FRIENDLY.

Cons: Terrible staff

Pros: Great Location

Cons: none

Pros: Good breakfast with lots of different foods to chose from. Room was nice, clean and bed was comfortable. Loved that the staff was American so could understand them.

Cons: Our view wasn't fun as there was just a space for parking and wall of adjacent building. But that didn't matter as we only were there to sleep.
