We were pleasantly surprised that the rooms, lobby and hallways had been recently renovated. The staff was warm, welcoming and attentive to our needs, and the service was fast. The breakfast was fresh and tasty, and staff were prompt with cleaning tables, restocking food and emptying the trash. There are 2 restaurant/bars on-site, which we found very welcome, and convenient. The pool and whirlpool were clean and well maintained. We will definitely be back.

Property was clean and staff were friendly. A bar and grill is connected and a DQ is within walking distance. The pool area is very big with chairs and tables surrounding. My favorite surprise was the sleeper sofa in the King room!

Even under renovations, this was a fantastic stay and I only wish I needed to stay there longer. The water pressure was glorious for a morning shower. Breakfast was great and the staff was super kind and helpful after a weary day of travel. Definitely recommend this place!

Staff was great and very friendly. Room was clean and ready to go except electronics and lights etc were not plugged in. Breakfast was hot. It was nice having access to two restaurants and not far from Robbin's Island Park which is amazing! Willmar is not the greatest town and was their for a workshop and it was nice coming back to a comfy, cozy, and clean place.

The room was clean and welcoming, the front desk signed me up for the rewards and was very pleased with the offer and kindness. I had left a stuffed moose by accident and I was able to call and have someone get it. It saved a heartbreak! I would suggest items found be tagged to the room and time to be able to reach out if something could be irreplacable but not complaining just a tip would help elevate the guest experience and trust/loyalty but they did right by me! Breakfast was amazing as well! Will stay again.
