Very nice, rustic
Stay was wonderful. Beautiful cabin, beautiful weather and absolutely beautiful views! Couch was terribly worn. Walk to shower house/ bathroom is a trek! Steps to it would be helpful. Overall the price was perfect, cabin very nice. The gamily time it created was amazing!

I will go again and tell others to go.
Everything was excellent, if I had a suggestion it would be to let guests know via text earlier about special events (ie wedding) that affect facility closures (ie restaurant/bar).

We recently found this property due to a last minute trip and the price was just right! Very pretty property with alot of things to keep busy if you like to be outdoors, the grounds seem well taken care of! Staff were pleasant and helpful with any questions. However, when we booked we were really excited to use the swimming area and outdoor slide but were sadly disappointed with the restrictions they have. We really wish that information would have been readily available online. Their website could offer alittle more information! Overall, we really like it and would go back!!

Overall we really enjoyed our stay here with our grandkids, but some aspects surprised us and were troubling. First let me describe the good parts because it was fun. The scenery at this ski lodge was Beautiful. We were surprised by how big and nice was the cabin. Our 4 grandkids beach, trampoline, slides , etc and the small lake. I was troubled by a few things. We knew there was no running water or bathroom in the cabin. I asked about the shared bathroom. The desk clerk assured me it was near the cabin, but obviously didn’t know. Technically it was pretty close, but straight up a steep hill without stairs. We did have access to a porta-potty which was overdue for cleaning. The kids had fun so it wasn’t awful.

Great price/beautiful location.
I woke up around 10 a.m. on July 4th in Rochester, MN and made A split decision last minute choice that it would be nice to watch the fireworks in Duluth, MN. I started looking online for hotels. Everything was $200+/night. I came across Mont du Lac Resort and found a small little cabin for under $100/night. I was on the road by 1 and arrived around 6. Ended up staying 2 nights because of the price and location. Cellphone reception wasn't great but they have free WIFI throughout the property! I had a great getaway. I will utilize this Resort again in the future if I'm in that area. Highly recommend. 5 Stars*****

Incredible quiet place the nights we stayed! The bar was great but i wished it would have been open longer and they ran out of tequila. We only received 2 wristbands for accommodations for up to 6 people. We had to buy extras at $18/ person.

Hi Laura, Glad you enjoyed your stay for the most part. It looks like the extra wristbands were purchased as regular daily wristbands. I have made a note in your reservation that you can have 2 wristbands to visit another time this summer.

I was not happy we were not informed of a party at the hill restaurant part and the shuttle would not bring us up there since we were not part of the party. My friend and i were so cold from walking just to find out there was no place to dine in and barely made it back down the hill in time for a meal. The shuttle driver was very rude and wouldnt even come back for us. We told a staff member below the hill that we would come just to tube but never again will i stay.

Beautiful, but came up short
Some amenities provided by facilities offering accommodations are taken for granted (by me, at least). Communication about lack of an indoor bathroom and running water would have been appreciated. It likely wouldn’t have changed our decision to stay here, but we shouldn’t have had to wait until entering the cabin to find out that the expected facilities were absent.

I apologize that you weren't informed that the bathroom/shower house was separate, that is usually something that is covered during the arrival day call. It is also stated on the website but is sometimes missed.

BEWARE WHAT YOU BOOK!! We spent big bucks for one night here last weekend, October 14th. To our shock this cabin had NO WATER. NO SINK. NO MIRRORS. NO BATHROOM. NO WINDOW SHADES. NO PRIVACY whatsoever. These "Slope Side Cabins" are primitive log cabins that are very well constructed, but lack basic needs. They all have a "shared bathroom" which is actually a separate building UP A HILL from where our cabin was. And even that has NO TOWELS. You can take a shower if you make the effort to get there but NO TOWELS, Really?? These should not even be allowed on this site. The rest of the property was awesome, but we felt like hobos and it sucked horribly. No refund offered. The staff said that we "should have read the fine print". We looked back and nowhere did it say no bathroom in the room. It only said no towels and I did miss that. Seriously who would book this knowing what we know now? Horrible experience...beware.

Nice sized cabin. We got the Slopeside Single Cabin. The main thing is knowing what you are signing up for. I had read another review suggesting bringing extra blankets, and that is a must.

Communication was poor. Staff was abrupt and not very helpful. No instructions for checkout and no key drop.Our checkin was interrupted by another staff person and both people stopped to have a conversation (about a paper sign for pretzels on sale) and left us waiting. Rather expensive price for poor customer service.

If you book a cabin here, call the property directly to make sure you get what you want. The pictures/information on Expedia was inaccurate. We got a slopeside cabin and there's no bathroom or running water. Talked to the front desk, who said this happens often with Expedia, and they switched us to a different cabin free of charge. New cabin was great and just what we wanted.

The cabin was really nice. The area and location were perfect. The only negative thing I would say is it is NOT handicap accessible. There is no bathroom or water in the cabin. We had to drive up a hill to get to a bathroom and to wash hands. It was so beautiful. We loved it but it was really tough walking to the Porta pot. We would love to back in the summer and give it a second chance.

Definitely was not a slope side cabin as advertised, was shoved in the woods with no view. Not made aware to bring linens or pillows. Limited comfort, one old sofa for a cabin that is supposed to sleep 6. Mattresses hard as a rock, would have been better sleeping on the floor. They closed early in fear of a storm that never came, staff was rude
