Top Horseshoe Lake Hotel Reviews

Days Inn & Suites by Wyndham Baxter Brainerd Area

10/10 Excellent

"The bed was comfortable and our room was clean. Staff were friendly and accommodating. The Continental breakfast was good too with quite a few different options to choose from such as scrambled eggs, sausage, pancakes, yogurt, cereal, bagels, coffee etc. They also had a pool and hot tub that seemed popular with guests although we didn't use it. Overall it's a great value for what you get so we would stay here again."
