The property was beautiful outside. Fall is a great time to go to Walker. When we checked in the receptionist, she was nice and bubbly. However, when we went to the restaurant/bar for dinner, it was closed. Nothing was mentioned when we booked it. That was one of the main reasons we wanted to stay there. There was another party wanting to know when breakfast is served and they laughed and said no breakfast. It is 10 miles or so into town. The rooms were nice and large. Called and Asked for More cups and coffee in the morning and said they would bring us some. Never did.

We really liked the setting and the accommodations. The grounds and rooms were very nice. There really were no staff around-the restaurant was closed due to no cook. Office was not open during office hours posted. We had everything we needed but it would have been nice to have staff available and the restaurant open.

Horseshoe Lodge and surrounding area were beautiful with very friendly staff and harbor crew. Was a shame that the town of Walker had yet to awaken from the winter break.

We were looking for a fun mid-winter getaway into the northern parts of minnesota. I think we might have been the only guests on the property but everything was great. I love the small towns near Walker, great breakfasts, and the pool was nice and relaxing in the evening. Brent Kastner

Nice, spacious hotel room overlooking the lake; fireplace was a nice touch. Food in restaurant was good but coffee was luke warm at best even after asking for a different cup. Wait staff were difficult to understand due to foreign accents. Overall a pleasant trip and the resort is lovely.

We were there for an ice fishing trip on horshoe bay, so this was a super convenient location just off the shore and the price was right. Pros: -Large spacious room -Comfy beds -Nice large pool area for kids -Nice view from room ( although not as close to lake as advertised, i think a bit misleading) -generous amounts of toiletries Cons: -noticeable cigarette odors in the hall that seeps into the rooms -super small non absorbent bath towels (bring your own) -need to bring your own hair dryer -there is a fireplace as advertised, but u have to purchase wood -no phone in the rooms to call front desk -heating/cooling in the unit is outdated and super loud. Everytime it starts up, it wakes you up.
