We were told most rooms have AC when in fact only 3 of the 8 rooms have AC. Only 2 of 6 burners worked on stove. Oven heat inaccurate. Screen windows/doors had holes in them. Not as handicap accessible as we thought. We loved how spacious it was. Never felt cramped. Pool table and fooseball was an added bonus. Reaponse of management team was

This place is stunningly beautiful, dock access is close, fire ring is close and the charcoal grill is big enough to accommodate our group of 14! We had a great time and would return.

We are a group of 12-15 that has a traditional of going to northern Minnesota each early to mid October. Given the larger size of our group, we normally rent a vacation property in "cabin country." This was our first time at the Ruth Lake Retreat, and all agreed this was one of the finest locations we've had in years. It's a gorgeous property with a great number of bedrooms wonderful kitchen, pool table / foosball table, complete with amazing lake views. If the property is available next year, we'd definitely consider a return trip!

It was perfect, but only missing one thing... a boat / pontoon rental. The lake was so nice. The sunset was beautiful... would had loved to be out there. We will definitely return though because location was great and house was beautiful and big for our big family! Some minor issues with bathroom doors not closing or locking, but we made it work. It rained twice on us so the pool table & other games along with the many TVs provided kept us company inside. Had many memorkes at the bonfire too. Yard was big enough for the kids to run around. Like the basketball hoop. Overall, great experience.

Great Place to stay. Had everything it stated it did. We were disappointed that the dock was not in. We were looking forward to a friend coming to get us for a boat ride. But was unable without a dock. The yard was not mowed or kept up. The house was Beautiful and we were all very comfortable with our stay. Just disappointed in the yard and lack of dock.

We are a group of 15 guys that have been gathering for a weekend of Poker and basketball for 28 years. We've been to the Ruth Lake Retreat for 11 years prior to the change of hands. It was nice to return to our beloved retreat. We will always consider it our home away from home. Obviously there were some changes, like the upstairs bedrooms being closed for the season when we've used them the same time of year many times in the past. Some of the guys had to sleep on couches for their $250.00. The kitchen blew a fuse and had no working outlets using the supplied toasters. Zack was great about plowing the driveway and flipping breakers.. We look forward to another weekend same time next year.
