Guest Reviews
- Diane (6/5): - It had a nice welcoming area with the fireplace, the pool looks filthy there was dirt on our sheets and on our blanket, the pool so they could only have so many people in and the same people are allowed in all night so no one else was basically allowed to use the pool or hot tub area, I repeatedly asked for an invoice to be emailed to me and I had to call three times to get it.
- Erin (10/5): Great hotel, friendly staff - This was the 2nd time we have stayed here and highly recommend. The staff are very friendly, breakfast had a good variety and the pool is perfect. It has a hot tub, a small pool with slide for toddlers and a regular pool. The rooms are comfortable. We will stay again when we are in the area.
- JCM (8/5): - The receptionist was very nice but did not wear PPE or have hand sanitizer available for guests. There was popcorn and a hair tie on the floor next to the bed so cleaning is a little haphazard. Other guests did not wear masks either on the whole, but I understand masks were made compulsory in MN the day after our stay so hopefully that has been remedied. The wifi was unsecured and pretty poor.
- Robert (8/5): LOOKS good to me - Thanks for the laughs
- Verified traveler (10/5): - The breakfast didn't include any freshly prepared hot food.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Staff was super friendly , very clean, there was nothing I didn’t like
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Staff were very friendly and helpful both on the check in and the check out. Room was very clean and pleasant!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - I was very pleased with our stay at White Oak Inn and Suites. We arrived late and the check in person was so friendly and accommodating. The room and bathroom was clean, spacious, and quiet. One bed was comfortable but the other needed to be replaced. Morning staff was very friendly also. Breakfast was microwavable but good.
- Diana (8/5): - Location was good, had a sports bar and grill right beside the hotel. ( really good food)
- Verified traveler (8/5): - It was very clean and all of the room items were in working order. Free continental breakfast was appreciated.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - This is a very nice facility and is the best hotel in the area. There is an excellent bar and restaurant located right next door. This hotel is only a couple of blocks away from a casino.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Bartender Shannon was the best!! We would go back there just to see her. Hilarious!!!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Spacious rooms. Very clean.
Nice lobby and breakfast room.
Staff was friendly.
- DaveGibson (10/5): - A pleasure to stay at this location … a gem hidden away along the highway in Minnesota …. décor representing a typical northern lodge with lots of wood throughout including the rooms … fantastic indoor pool ….. our favourite of 4 US based hotels that we stayed in on our trip to Western Canada from Ontario … highly recommended ……
- SirJames (10/5): - Very nice place in the middle of no where!
All services you would need are nearby in deer river
- Verified traveler (8/5): - No elevator. Had my elderly mother and it was very hard for her to get upstairs.
- Ruben (8/5): Happy - Decent for overnight stay like any other hotel basic service
- Verified traveler (10/5): - towels available for pool. Also, reservation was changed without any problem.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Great place to stay. Relaxing pool and hot tub. Rooms very clean and comfortable.
- april (10/5): - I would definitely recommend this stay. right off the highway. staff were welcoming. reminded me of a chalet in the mountains. used the fitness room and had the free breakfast - all more than acceptable
- Caf (8/5): - White oak inn is a very nice facility, rooms are well kept and comfortable. We would stay again, no hot breakfast except if you microwave your food.
- Kelly (8/5): We'd stay again - It was a good location for the price and what we needed. The breakfast was severely lacking and the entire place smelled vaguely like cigarette smoke. But overall, nothing major was an issue.
- Eugene (10/5): - The White Oak Inn and Suites is nice and the staff was friendly and helpful.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Decent location; restaurant close by. Easy access to interstate.
- Verified traveler (4/5): - Pool was extremely cold 👎 Cigarette buts piled by side door and dog poop on sidewalk and grass
- Jeffrey (8/5): - Was very quiet, and the beds were very comfortable
- LuAnne (8/5): - Nice rooms, clean hotel. Breakfast left a lot to be desired. Staff very friendly
- Eugene (10/5): - The White Oak Inn was clean, the staff was friendly and helpful, the breakfast was good with a variety of foods. The only thing that could have been better is the bed. It was soft from wear.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - There was a window and commotion below our room on the first evening we stayed. Some one was injured and had to be taken to the ER
- Verified traveler (8/5): Good but different breakfast set up. - Breakfast was not what I expected. You get the raw/frozen/packaged items out of a couple refrigerators then heat them up in a microwave. They could use another microwave as that was a bottleneck. It was good, but harder than the flip over waffles and hot food in a couple warmers when trying to get a family fed and on the move. No decaf coffee. Pool was good, kiddy pool was fine, the frog slide was fun for my child, but they had issues with the hot tub so it was cold and the jets just bubble up the wall, don't shoot out into the tub. Looks nice but no actual message action.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - All good. Good location.
- Sue (8/5): - Just traveling through. Nice place to stay. Helpful friendly staff.
- Celeste (10/5): Excellent service. A Happy stay! - Very good. Staff was helpful.
- Brandon (10/5): Perfect - Always accomidating and never a problem...................
- Verified traveler (8/5): Ice fishing,is near many lakes - Was pleased at how well kept the room was.The beds could use replacement.one was hard the other soft and thought the springs were going to pop out,lol.but it's been a long time since I've been in a room as clean as this.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Very pleasent. Nice hotel great breakfast. Close to casino.
- Sandy (10/5): Nice hotel at a reasonable price - We stayed 2 nights while on a fishing trip. The hotel staff was very friendly, and the room was nice. It is not a 5 star hotel by any means, but we knew that going there. The hotel was clean. The continental breakfast was good. They had a wide variety of foods, including sausage patties and eggs that could be warmed in the adjacent microwave. There is a restaurant next door that is open until 10 pm that will even cook your own cleaned fish for a fee! We got back late, so we missed the restaurant but were able to get food until 1 am at the casino just down the road. The room was clean, but the mattress was a little hard. Bathroom was very nice and spacious and clean. Overall, we had a very good experience and would stay there again given the chance.
- Donny (10/5): Clean very nice - Was hunting close to services very clean very nice looks new love the decor fit the area very nicely
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Very nice and clean rooms. Very friendly staff. Would highly recommend
- Jason (10/5): Hot tub! - Our room was very large and comfortable, and we really enjoyed the hot tub en suite!! There is a bar and grill next door that does take out for dinner, and breakfast in the hotel was good, with hot and cold options. We also enjoyed the lodge feel of the place, and the historical pictures on the wall. There is no elevator, so consider if you'll have too much luggage to walk up the stairs. We also drove to nearby Itasca State Park in the morning to see the headwaters of the Mississippi in the morning - worth the trip.
- Verified traveler (4/5): - The bed was as hard as a rock. Very uncomfortable.
- RaeLynn (8/5): nice location - very nice location, clean and comfy, very nice continental breakfast
- traveller (8/5): Deer river... - Nice hotel, clean. Bed super soft :( wifi was borderline unusable. Tv had no channel guide so it was a guess of what to watch. Hot tub and pool were great.
Overall it's a place to stay. Most importantly clean. Can put up with no wifi and lousy tv if things are clean. Breakfast in the morning was better than expected.
- Craig (10/5): - It is a great place to stay overnight. I have done so many times and will continue because how nice everything is that I use or need for a good nights rest. The location is great also for ease of use for me.
- John (8/5): - Over nighter
- danyell (8/5): great place to stay - it was comfortable and welcoming. they accept large breed dogs.
- Tom (10/5): It was clean, quiet, friendly and convenient envi - We've stayed at White Oak Inn before and was pleased with everything. This trip we had a funeral to attend and it was clean, quiet, friendly and convenient. We are repeaters.
- Gary (6/5): - Room was noisy, could hear the tv's and people talking in the rooms on either side of us. Breakfast was so so.
- Paul (10/5): Comfortable and Attractive! - Though it's not a full featured hotel, i.e.: thin towels, week AC, basic beds/linens. It is still quite comfortable and frankly, an attractive hotel. Service was great, friendly, and joyful. If you want a "nice" place to stay without all the cost, this one is it! And it is close enough to Grand Rapids.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Great stay! - We appreciated the friendly staff, clean room, and wonderful indoor pool.
