The unit my family stayed in was spacious and nicely furnished. It was on the lake shore and our view was fantastic. There were some annoying problems. The phone didn't work. The front door needed repair. This unit was a duplex and our neighbors voices could be clearing heard through the master bedroom wall. Front desk employees did offer to... more

I highly recommend Grand View Lodge for families. It is worth every penny. The rate may sound expensive, but we had breakfast and dinner included in our plan each day. The breakfast buffet was incredible and all the restaurants for dinner are fancy, yet kid-friendly. They even have playgrounds behind each restaurant for the children who can't sit still. All... more

Grand View Lodge has a couple of things going for it -picturesque grounds on beautiful Gull Lake and nice/updated lodging accomodations. After that, watch out! The service/management is far less than impressive, and not on the same level as the numerous "chain" hotels along Hwy 371, let alone a property that bills itself as "Minnesota's premier family, golf and spa... more

Our company has our annual sales meeting here every year. Overall usually a very good experience. The location is picturesque and if you are a golfer you will enjoy the various courses. The food has improved in Grand Views venues, but if you are planning a meeting here, don't expect much from catered events. Most of the golf villas, and... more

I wrote last year about our semi-okay trip to GVL. This time we learned from our mistake (namely that of taking the cheap route and getting a room in the main lodge) and we instead booked one of the Roy Lodge Golf Villa's for our three night stay over Memorial Day. Everything was fantastic! The Roy Lodge Golf Villas are... more

GrandView Lodge was the central location for a destination wedding the last weekend of October. Every guest stayed at GrandView in either single cabins or multi-unit large group cabins - sort of a lodge within a lodge. The entire experience exceeded our expectations. The cabins and lodges were spacious, clean and charming. The general theme of each cabin was an... more

We recently had a very enjoyable 4-day stay at Grand View Lodge, one of the big resorts in the Brainerd Lakes area. Grand View Lodge has a number of associated properties in addition to the main lodge (and cabins). You can either stay at the main lodge area or one of the associated properties. We stayed in one of the... more

Our family travelled from around the country to stay three nights at a Grand View Lodge property, the Bay Colony Inn "reunion house," located five minutes from the main lodge. The place, which the website refers to as a "spacious, lodge-type home," is in fact an old road house that has not been updated, maintained, or even properly cleaned. The... more

I just returned from a stay in a lake front cottage at GVL, literally 25 feet from Gull Lake. There was a very nice view, a nice breeze, and although I don't like swimming in lakes, it looked good for that sort of thing. There were boats for rent, chaise lounges for sunning, etc. The cottage itself was very average... more

We had a group of 7 guys that stayed in the Lehman Cabin at Deacon's Lodge golf cabins. This was no cabin. It was a 4+ BR house and it was awesome. it had two bedrooms on main floor, two BR in the lower level (walkout) and 4 beds in the loft. The beds were very comfortable - felt like... more
