Great Little Motel!

This motel was conveniently located just across the highway from the north entrance of Itasca State Park. The room was spacious, clean, and adorably decorated. The owner was friendly and kind. My 12 year old son and I had a wonderful stay. I highly recommend staying here!

Big Timbers surrounded by WOODS

This lovely little motel was exactly what we needed, a home base while we explored & hiked, visited w friendly locals & ate great walleye. Christine was quick & easy to communicate with, and our room was squeaky clean!

Lovely place, perfect location

We had a great time visiting Itasca State Park. The cabin was in a perfect location, right across the street from the Park. The cabins are new, clean, well-equipped, and beautifully maintained. Communication with the owner was easy and pleasant. Very highly recommend staying here if you get the opportunity!
