I recently visited your town for the Minnesota Inventors Congress Convention and I must say I was very pleased but, before I get ahead of myself let me back-up a little. When I first started making travel plans to the MIC event I was wondering what I had got myself into. A little old town in the middle of nowhere, I just didn’t think there would be anything to do. Well I got to say I was totally surprised. The townsfolk are very friendly and polite. They just made you feel like you were part of the community.
Deb Hess, whom I spoke to many times over the phone, has done a good job in promoting the town and the MIC event, being from Florida; I had many choices to choose from for this type of event and I am glad I chose MIC. I had the pleasure of staying at the Redwood Valley Falls Lodge and Gail and her staff were friendly to say the least, almost like that warm blanket on a cold winter night; the staff would do whatever it took to make my stay the best experience they could offer. The room was fairly priced and was also extra nice and clean, no smell at all; shower was also very clean and fresh linens in place; the free breakfast was provided in a very clean and spaceous dinning area. The only thing I needed was a hair dryer and the hotel staff fixed that in about 5 minutes. I also visited a few restaurants and two of them make the top of my list Pizza Ranch and Chumly’s – great food, fair prices and wonderful wait staff, and of course everyone was so helpful, so my hat is off to Janet & Bear from Chumly's ( great Burgers ), and the others for making my stay an experience of a lifetime. Connie at the Hallmark Shoppe was also very friendly. There must be something in the water up there because I have never been to a town where everyone treats you so good
Heck I even got to see my first Elk, Buffalo, and Waterfall in person; you just don’t have those down here in Florida.
The only negative experience I had was the buffet food at Jackpot Junction, bad food and the price was too high but, I did my best to spend what I could to help the local business owners out.
In closing I would just like to say good job, clean town, pleasant townsfolk. I look forward to coming back next year.

This motel is in a great location for access to WMA's. They allow pets and charge only a one-time cleaning fee instead of a per night/per dog fee like most motels. The rooms were large, clean and comfortable. Breakfast was substantial and tasty. Relaxing in the sauna and whirlpool after a day in the fields was a real treat. We have stayed in other motels in this area and paid a lot more for much less in value and comfort. Will absolutely return again and again!

My husband and I were very impressed with this super clean, very attractive lodge with very friendly staff and excellent service.
Our room had a nice view and very comfortable beds and we liked the extra pillows for each queen bed.
The breakfast was very good each morning and we liked the exercise machine room too.
The price was really good for such a nice hotel.

Clean rooms, quiet, good staff, good breakfast. This was a good place to stay, and would happily go there again.
