We had an awesome time enjoying the heated pool and relaxing in the hot tub together. The food at the restaurant was surprisingly tasty and didn’t break the bank, making our meals easy and enjoyable. I wish there were more options for breakfast since it wasn't included, but overall, it was still a blast! 😊

We had a fantastic time enjoying the beautiful views and outstanding service at meals, especially the delicious Walleye filets. The pool area was clean and a great way to relax after a long day, and we loved the ease of kayaking on the lake. Definitely coming back!

I stayed for 3 nights in a Standard Double Room. The view from the window was amazing, right by the lake. The beds were super comfy, and the room was clean but a bit dated. Amenities were basic, like the fridge and bathroom fixtures could use an upgrade. Internet was good though. Overall, it was cozy and comfortable enough for our trip.

Beautiful lodge, thrilling location, with glorious views from our room and restaurant along with helpful staff that made our stay enjoyable, especially Rodger who was knowledgeable about outdoor activities and brought an engaging spirit to our visit.

No free breakfast.

The kids enjoyed the pool and the game room, while my wife and I appreciated the lovely setting near the lakes. The location is perfect for exploring the great outdoors and taking advantage of activities offered by local outfitters.

In my wife’s opinion, the housekeeping could definitely improve, especially for families. We wanted more amenities in our room for the kids.

great experience at the grand ely lodge where wonderful staff made our family wedding unforgettable with stunning lake view

Stunning view, wonderful staff.

Comfortable room, clean facilities, with a lovely indoor pool that was refreshing after a long day of hiking and friendly staff who were always willing to help during our stay.

A bit outdated and could use some renovations.

We had a fantastic time at the lodge! The full-service marina was excellent for our family's outdoor adventures, and the staff was super friendly, especially with our newborn. We enjoyed a peaceful stroll down to the lake, soaking in the stunning views. Plus, the dining experience was surprisingly delightful.

In my wife’s opinion, more kid-friendly activities would be great.

great base for exploring nearby parks and attractions

We enjoyed our stay here, especially the cozy atmosphere and the hot tub felt amazing after our city strolls and adventures at the international wolf center and ely arts and heritage center, which are both just a short walk away. this hotel is perfect for families looking to combine nature with leisure. but housekeeping could use a bit of improvement.

I stayed for 3 nights in a Standard Double Room. The lodge is located between two lakes, providing stunning views. The pool and jacuzzi were clean and not crowded. Staff were very helpful when my mother needed assistance. It was a comfortable experience overall. 🌅

The brilliant location adjacent to two lakes offered spectacular views from the room. The staff at the front desk were not only welcoming but also adept at solving any issues that came up, particularly Rodger, who was fantastic with outdoor activities. However, parking was limited, and while the indoor pool was a highlight, it felt more of a base for exploring rather than a destination itself.

The breathtaking views from our room overlooking Shagawa Lake were simply mesmerizing, especially at sunset! With an inviting pool and jacuzzi area that felt serene and family-friendly, there was always a perfect spot to unwind. Plus, the staff were incredible—especially Rodger, who brightened our days with his extensive knowledge of outdoor activities in the area.

100% recommend 💖🌟

We had an amazing time with strong water pressure for showers and the kids loved the pool and hot tub. Plus, the canoe usage was a fantastic bonus! Would definitely come back!

We had an awesome time enjoying the free canoe usage and relaxing in the hot tub during our stay. The indoor pool and sauna really helped us unwind after a long day of exploring. Just a heads up, breakfast isn't included, but there are great dining options nearby! 🌊
