I felt so relaxed after my stay here. Blue Lakes is beautiful. The Lodge has a peaceful vibe. I rented a paddle board and enjoyed a lovely hour enjoying the views. The water was refreshing and not too cold. Blue Lakes doesn’t appear to have any public beaches so staying here is an easy way to access the water. You can rent boats, kayaks, inner tubes and water bikes. I highly recommend!

The property by the lake was beautiful. They let us use the facilities after check-out, which we really appreciated. The staff member was very kind and welcoming. The place was clean, there was ice available, and they provided us with hot water. The only downside was the beds. Our room had two beds, and both of them were very noisy. It was quite uncomfortable to sleep because every time you moved or turned over, the beds squeaked loudly. I would recommend replacing the beds, as they were both uncomfortable and noisy.

I was verbally assaulted by a very overweight boy in a Vikings jersey when I checked in at 9pm because I “woke him up” (he was on the clock, but on call in his room). He also charged me for the room, $140, even though I already paid for it online on Expedia app. Very shady place, would advise everyone to avoid.

The rooms are very clean and well insulated. Beds were comfortable. This is an older resort showing its wear but they have kept the rooms modern and nice. The manager was a hoot. We had a great time with her (Barbara). Would definitely stay there again

the place is very outdated. and the pictures online are not close to the reality. we asked in family could come and visualize the place to see if worth buying a day pass to the lake from the property. Staff member said the owner charges 32 a person period check out the property or stay the day. the rooms smelt moldy and amenities were poor. the eating hall is nonexistent. Pure deception and at 250 a night for weekdays is a huge rip off.

I stayed at Blue Lakes Lodge for 3 nights. The staff member was helpful upon check-in. The lake was beautiful and scenic. The room was relatively clean; however, the beds were not the most comfortable and bedding had some noticeable stains. Additionally, the shower and sink in the bathroom were slow to drain.
