I enjoyed our stay, this time we were in the Indigo Room which is on the top level and it was as charming and clean as the Amber Room. The staff is always friendly and helpful. 🌸
We really enjoyed our time here - place was super clean and bigger than we expected. It's in a great location - was walkable to town. Will absolutely return!
The stay was excellent! The owners of the property made sure the arrival was perfect and accommodating. The property was very clean and well kept. A local even comented that their relatives stay at the same property when they come in town.
I highly recommend. We even saw deer outside the property, in the early morning.
Really comfy place to stay when in Ely. Met some of the other guests and was able to walk around Ely for shopping and meals. A fun two days in Northern Minnesota.
We had a lovely stay for 2 nights. Room was clean and comfortable. Shared kitchen was nice and the outdoor patio was great place to relax Communication with host was timely. Make sure you take advantage of the offered amenities.
Wonderful room in a house right in town. Everything was just right! The bed was super comfortable. We were very impressed during our stay and plan to stay again.
Really enjoyed the convenient self service check in. Room was clean and comfortable, and the price was reasonable for the season and area. The included breakfast from the nearby coffee shop was a nice touch! Will definitely stay again next time we're in the Ely area!
we stayed here last year in a different room and really liked the location and ease of checking in.
Bonus !
free coffee and pastry at the nearby coffee shop!
this year , we had the upper most floor and was not perfect for a tall person but still a great place to layover for before or after the BWCA.
A quiet and clean building right on Main Street. Everything made easy with a code to get into our room and a great list of suggestions and information. Great, cozy common areas, too.
This is a great and reasonably priced place to stay. It is dog friendly. The owners provide lots of extras for the guests such as full kitchen to make your own food. No need to bring any dishes. The rooms are cozy and it feels like you are staying in a cabin. Would definitely stay here again!
Beautiful Inn with a fully stocked kitchen and everything you need in your room. We loved the pine walls and wood floors. No nasty carpet especially since it’s pet friendly. We will be definitely be back!
Couple of minor issues, but were quickly resolved. Such a cozy feel inside the Inn. Cute place, nice location, not the best parking situation but made it work.
This was a perfect launch point before our canoe trip. Easily accessible to the canoe outfitters, restaurants and the town. The beds were comfortable. Only feedback would be to update the curtains in the restroom - you can get some great accordion shades on sites like blinds.com that would nicely cover those windows.
