Very good

Liked: We enjoyed all aspects of our stay here. The restaurant is wonderful and serves great food
Disliked: They used to offer free breakfast and don't anymore. The place is getting old.

I feel our stay was...

Liked: Our breakfasts were tasty and the coffee was good. The room was quiet, the bed was comfortable and the water pressure was good in the shower.
Disliked: The rooms should be updated with furniture that's not damaged and fits appropriately in the room. It would be helpful if the bathroom had more counter space.

Perfect hidden gem!

Liked: Love this inn and have for years so I was excited to see it on booking.com that way my husband and I could go at a discounted price since we all know that having kids, things are sometimes out of the price range for things like this. This was actually our first time away without any kids with us. Honestly, we wished we could've stayed longer and are already starting to plan another trip so we can stay at the inn again.
Disliked: There are no complaints from us for Barker's Island Inn. Everything about it is wonderful. Next time we plan to eat at the restaurant inside as well, we were just on a time crunch the next day so couldn't.

I wish I had not...

Liked: Good location
Disliked: Room was dirty dirty wash clothes from previous customer left in shower rim - bathroom smelled like a urinal - it was dingy.

Dated and poor value

Liked: Good location and the pool was ok. Did have a pretty good prime rib special dinner
Disliked: Needs a major update - everything is very dated, barely working and stuck in the 80’s?

Superb

Passable

Liked: What breakfast no thanks had to pay. Went to Perkins right down the road a lot cheaper and better
Disliked: The price wasn't what I thought should be. Will pay ahead next time so I get the price I saw first

This is a pleasant place...

Liked: The location is very beautiful. It is secluded but so very close to all of your needs and the city of Duluth. The people are always courteous and welcoming. The pool area is always pristine and the entire facility is very clean.
Disliked: The tables in the room are falling apart. They are very unstable and should be replaced. You have to walk a great distance to reach the rooms due to the pool, restaurant and conference center. It would be nice to not have to walk through a maze to get to your room.
