Pleasantly surprised with the rustic quality of this place. It was charming and perfect for my family getaway. Even caught the train that picks up in the parking lot and got a little tour of the train museum, all for free. Our cabin was perfect for my two young children, wife and I. Private and quiet. Excellent stay!

The room was tidy, it was lacking bed linens for the 2nd bed. There was 3 of us and only 2 towels. We had a hard time to get onto the internet. When we went to put our clothes in yhe dryer the office did not have quarters. I stay here all the time and the staff is wonderful.

Basic, clean room, very quiet location. Good price, seems to be American owned and operated which is rare these days. Staff friendly and informative. Bed, pillows comfortable, good water pressure. Internet worked just fine. Will definitely stay at the Northern Queen Inn again.

The grounds are stunning, the room was comfortable, but somewhat outdated as half the electrical outlets didn’t work. I’d stay here again.

The property was great. Lots of parking. My room was nicely updated. The only thing I would say is that the body wash in the shampoo dispensers were not functioning or empty. I didn’t do the continental breakfast so I can’t come in on it. Good location for where we were going last night. Right off the freeway.

Northern Queen has seemingly a huge number of rooms! So it’s usually available, a quick hop to the town less than a half mile, a nice welcoming staff, clean and quiet rooms, and a good setting. On top of that, it’s very reasonably priced. I would be happy to come again.
