It’s a very nice hotel, which is great because the only one in the area! The beds are comfortable, the room is clean and wifi is great (some old reviews say otherwise but it’s no longer true). We loved the staff who works hard to make you feel comfortable. Not many choices for restaurants, but the grocery store has nice frozen meals (and we’re not fans of frozen meals) that you can microwave in the room.

My family was there for a memorial service in Lake Bronson. Comfortable rooms. The staff went out of their way for us. Couldn't possibly be happier and more grateful. Highly recommend.

Stayed for two nights. Arrived very late the first night and they were accommodating with that. Room and hotel in general was very clean. The people working there were very friendly and helpful. No coffee pot in the room but there was always coffee in the lobby.

Let me first start out with saying Ronnie was an absolute delight!! She went above and beyond expectations to be sure we were comfy and had a room to stay in with a super late/early morning check in. Our keys were waiting for us at the front counter along with a roll out cot upstairs near our room. Although it’s a bit outdated, it’s a great place to stay for a decent price. The ease and fantastic customer service by Ronnie, even through text will have our family coming back if we head north again!!! Thank you so much for everything Ronnie! I sure hope you get to see this. Keep on keeping on! Tiffany and Fam

Came to the area for a Family Reunion. Booked 3 night stay. It might not be fancy, but it was decent. Matt and his wife were friendly, willing to help with any questions, supplies for your room, like extra pillows, an iron, etc. They were the only employees working there, and they were very accommodating. My room was just fine. The bed was very comfortable, pillows were good. Towels were soft. The Shower was great! Plenty of hot water and great water pressure! The air con was very good, kept the room arctic if you wanted it, or nice and comfy cool. Fridge and microwave were good, TV and Internet worked great. Yes it could be updated, but it was clean, comfortable and quiet. The Continental breakfast was okay, The Keurig worked great and they offered a variety of coffee and tea and it was available 24/7. There were bagels, muffins, waffles, cereal, milk and juice. There was butter, jelly, peanut butter, syrup. So basic, but still options. The little area for breakfast and the Lobby were welcoming and clean. We had a nice stay, slept well each night, and felt welcome.

I've stayed at the Caribou a couple times now. It's nothing special, and that's not a bad thing. I haven't had any problems with check in or out and the rooms have been clean. The beds are a bit firm... But that's about it.
