This is the way you want to be treated when you travel! We stayed here on a skiing trip to Giant's Ridge in Biwabik, MN. We were treated very well. The rooms are small, but very clean and the service was wonderful. The mattresses are very comfortable and the motel was nice and quiet. The price was wonderful, too! I... More

Stay here. It overlooks two lakes. It's small and older, but has microwave, fridge, and decent beds. The hosts were very nice, talking with me about loons, birds, for awhile. Said they see "bush" wolves, eagles, black bears, loons, even pelicans one time.

The Motor Inn stay was wonderful! Very friendly owners. The lakes around it added to the charm. I would highly recommend this motel. It was well worth the price. It was the perfect mid spot for sight seeing as we had never been in the area before. Perfect town for dining out and getting on the highway to Ely and... More

We stayed two nights in the suite. It has a bedroom, living room, kitchenette, couch and easy chair, two flat screen TVs and a comfortable queen bed. Everything was clean. The wi-fi works well and the TV reception is good with plenty of cable channels. The location is right across the street from a small lake and park and it's... More

The suite, with separate bedroom and kitchen area gives you plenty of room to relax and even invite friends in to visit. The flat screen TV's, refrigerator, dishwasher and microwave add to the at home experience. The owners are friendly, attentive and obviously... More

I've been staying at the Lakeshor for years and am always happy to go back. It would be very easy to overlook. From the outside it looks like an old green shoebox, but the rooms are spotlessly clean and quite attractive. The owners, furthermore, are very friendly people and quick to solve any problem you may find. The location is... More

We planned a weekend trip to bike the Mesabi Trail, and we enjoyed our stay at the Lakeshore Motor Inn. The owners were very friendly and provided information on restaurant recommendations and trail information. The rooms were clean with new mattresses, mini refrigerator, microwave, coffee maker and a small dining table. There is a separate sink/vanity located outside the bathroom,... More

Don't let the dated outside mislead you. The rooms are very nice for the money and extremely clean as well. Quality bedding, micro, fridge, and the flat screen TV made all my two night stay quite comfortable.
