Worst hotel room I’ve stayed in. My only positive is there was no viewable mold. The WiFi dropped you. The bed squeaks. The carpenter is frayed. Hokes in the wall. The breakfast guy called in sick so the simple continental breakfast was nearly an hour late. As nice as the staff was, do not stay here!

The cabin was a little run down. Cobwebs, fire place was broken, blinds were broken. It was clean but did smell a little musty when we first got in the room.

Internet wasn’t working when we tried to check in at 3 pm. After 15-20 minutes, we finally left and went into town since they couldn’t get us a room number. We came back about 5 pm and were manually issued a room since their system was still down. I have asked for a discount because of the inconvenience. They said they will try to work with Expedia to give me some money back since I booked with a third party.

Arrived for our 10/4 reservation at about 2:30pm. The place definitely did not look as quaint as shown on the website. It was practically deserted, only a few cars and not a person in sight. Despite seeing a sign that pointed to check-in, we could not locate any type of office. Called the phone number and got no answer. Finally saw an open door on the building labeled restaurant. Went inside to see if we could find someone to help. Not a person in sight and dining room lights were flickering eerily...total Bates Motel/Friday the 13th vibes!! At that point, we high-tailed it out of there and luckily were able to find another place to stay for the night. Definitely would NOT recommend.

Good news first, the Northern Queen Inn is being remodeled. It's Oct 2025 now and by next year this place should be very nice if all goes well. As of now, it's outdated and rundown. Below a motel 6 in all ways except location. It's set in some rolling hills near the highway with beautiful forest lands. It would benefit from a Tahoe cabin style decor interior and an earth-tone paint job outside. Let's hope for the best... the staff was nice.

Our 2 night stay was pleasant. Beautiful surroundings, very friendly personnel. We got extra blankets, and whatever information we needed...they are remodeling now, so its not quite up to par, but it will be soon . I would recommend.

Very nice environment with a waterfall and lots of trees. But facilities are generally dated and in need of upgrades. Recommend that you stay in one of the “delux” rooms which have been recently remodeled.
