Strandhotels in Deer River

'This is an older hotel, clean and mostly in good repair. The rooms are large, and have full-sized refrigerators...a welcome change from the "mini refrigerators" that cannot hold a 12 pack. Some rooms have a nice view of a lake, there is a dock and benches to sit and watch the view. Staff is on site and friendly; it seems to be family-owned...we liked the chance to help local people. Lots of parking and close to anything one might need. We would not hesitate to stay there again.'

'An excellent hotel to stay at - clean, helpful staff, a great breakfast.'

'It was quite obvious the owner does not fix the little things. The bathroom door does not shut. Neither sink had a working drain plug, had to go under the sink to manually open the drain. Exhaust fan grill in the bathroom has not been cleaned in a while. Water was not soft. In-room coffee was very bad, probably really old. Realistically, this room should have rented for no more than $89/night. Just my thoughts.'

'Everything is like brand new. Couldn’t ask for any more. Staff at check in last night and check out this morning were top notch. Very friendly folks. Great place to stay. '

'Nice location to stay and fish iff the dock after working on the road all day. '

'All was good, though the waffles in the breakfast area had a foul sour taste and smell.'

'Our Host was prompt with responses to questions. This was most meaningful. The main cabin was charming and lake view was awesome. As a rustic older cabin, it has been lovingly kept up. We were not able to use the quaint boathouse because temps had dropped and it is not heated. The rainy weather kept us inside. However, the spacious living area gave us ample room to hang out and we were close to Grand Rapids and Cohasset to enjoy other entertainment avenues. No regrets. Hope to book again.'
