This was just a well-suited match for a weekend escape in Baxter with good value for price. The free breakfast had a lot of options which made mornings easier for our family. Make sure to check breakfast hours ahead of time to avoid confusion.

conveniently close to parks and entertainment in baxter area

I really enjoyed my stay as the spacious room came with a microwave and fridge, making it easy to unwind after exploring nearby attractions like the Northland Arboretum, which is just almost 2 km away and perfect for some leisurely walks, and Whipple Beach, located about 4 km away, ideal for a refreshing swim. the hotel is a great base for families looking to experience the outdoor fun and local sights.

Indoor water park, unique log nameplates for rooms, close to local attractions

The waterpark needs better management regarding reserved seating!!! Inconsistent cleanliness in pool area and common areas is disappointing!!! The lack of attention to room maintenance makes for an uncomfortable stay!!!

Waterpark was a blast for the kids, but bathroom cleanliness was lacking.

The spacious Queen Suite with Sofa Bed facilitated a comfortable family getaway. The children enjoyed the clean park featuring slides and a splash pad, which was perfect during check-in and check-out. However, the breakfast left much to be desired. soggy eggs and unappetizing potatoes were disappointing. Additionally, the high chlorine levels in the water park made for an uncomfortable experience due to burning eyes.

The indoor water park was a great hit with the kids, offering plenty of fun water features that kept them entertained for hours.

Communication from the front desk was lacking, and I wasn’t informed about the breakfast hours or amenities upon check-in.

the lodge at brainerd lakes is a nice hotel with a clean and updated feel. the queen room with two queen beds was spacious and cozy. the indoor/outdoor hot tub was fantastic for relaxing. checkout was a breeze, thanks to the friendly front desk staff. plus, it's super close to the water park, which the kids loved!

the breakfast could use some improvement.

Enjoyed the spacious accommodations, perfect for family time. The indoor pool area was a highlight for the kids. However, some cleanliness issues, like dirt in the corners and unexpected charges during checkout, left a bit to be desired.

100% recommend for a lightning trip

Comfortable room, convenient amenities, with free parking and a family-friendly atmosphere that made our short stay enjoyable, especially with the kids enjoying the indoor pool and playground.

The Lodge At Brainerd Lakes provided a comfortable Queen Suite Sofa Bed with a spacious layout that allowed for effective work during my stay. The breakfast included a wide selection of items, ensuring everyone could find something to enjoy. The staff was accommodating and responsive to my business needs.

Limited options for business gatherings inside the hotel.
