very nice

This place is amazing! The people are wonderful, like family actually. The property is clean and cozy. And it’s the perfect place to bring your family or just relax for two like we did. Best staycation ever!

Wi-fi internet did not work, room was very clean. Staff was friendly but my first rewards card didn't work and I didn't get my 10 dollars free play.

The Grand View Lodge website needs to be updated with what amenities will be available for what dates. We had expected to have lots of options avaliable to us during our stay for spring break, but there was only one pool open, two restaurants, no ice rink, no snowshoeing, no skiing, no sledding, and limited hours for the things that were open. The food at the pub was greasy and overpriced, the menus were inaccurate, and the pizza tasted like cardboard. And 12 year olds are considered "adults". I booked a couples massage for myself and my husband at Glacial Waters Spa and it was the worst massage experience of my life, especially for the price. My husband expressed similar sentiments as well. I notified the front desk of our disappointing experience. They had me fill out a comment card and they also emailed a manager because they said one was not avaliable for me to speak with at the time. The staff person said a manager would call me. It's been four days and no one has contacted me. Additionally, I was forced to pay full price for my husband's massage, and was only given 20% off my massage. The total cost was still almost $400. My massage therapist could have been any Joe off the street; she lacked basic massage skills, was noisy, chaotic, and did not actually massage my muscles but instead applied about 100 layers of lotion, which caused the sheets to stick to my body. I would like a full refund for this experience being a total waste of my time and my husband's time.

The pool staff were incompetent. 1 staff member was sleeping on duty. Guests had to forcibly take tubes from each other to make them give them up due to lack of availability & poor "traffic control" on slides. Otherwise, the hotel staff was friendly & hotel was clean. Breakfast ran out of some items midway through, but it was adequate considering it was complimentary.

I’ve even coming to Nisswa for 20yrs and this was one of the best experiences I’ve had. Nature Link’s design and approach to “linking” to nature and creating a peaceful experience was wonderful! I will definitely be back. Joel W.
