Spent a wonderful 2 night stay here! The bedrooms are quaint and spacious with AC/heat controls in each. The main rooms have nice cozy furniture with a cabin vibe. The breakfasts are creative, fun and absolutely scrumptious! Love the serenity and comfort this bed breakfast has. Definitely visiting again, Craig and Janet are amazing hosts!

We had a wonderful two night stay. We enjoyed the tranquility of the property, the delicious breakfasts, and the hospitality of Janet and Craig. A great place if you’re looking for a quiet relaxing break from every day life.

We were here last year, this is our second time. This time we stayed in the Barred Owl room, last time we stayed in the Bald Eagle room, and the rooms are huge! The bed was perfect, the sheets were like sleeping on clouds. …

We booked for a family wedding and it was perfect! Beautiful setting, porch rocking chairs, and so clean! Enjoyed the views and wildlife viewing.|Decor was so thoughtful and themed, even provided walking sticks for a stroll around the grounds.

This place is immaculate, charming and cozy! We had the nicest stay here and the hosts prepared wonderful hot breakfast each morning. The views are beautiful. Best B & B experience ever!

We were here last year and enjoyed it so much we returned. The lodge and grounds are so beautiful and so well kept. Breakfasts were wonderful. We had a very peaceful and relaxing three day stay. Thank you Janet and Craig for being such gracious hosts.

A beautiful place!! Peaceful and serene atmosphere. Craig and Janet are phenomenal hosts, hospitable and knowledgeable about the local attractions and activities. The food….superb. I highly recommend visiting and plan to come again.

Great hosts in Craig and Janet assuring a wonderful stay once again as this is our 4th time staying at Spirit Cove. Delicious breakfasts. … Read more

We stayed for two nights in May 2023 and had a very pleasant visit. From the B&B, we cycled directly to the Central Lakes State Trail (part of the Rails-to-Trails network in Minnesota), just a few minutes away, and then followed the well-paved, scenic trail to Alexandria and Osakis (about 40 miles round trip). The lodge was peaceful and quiet with kind and hospitable hosts, our room was very comfortable, and the breakfasts were delicious. Highly recommended!

We had an amazing stay at Spirit Cove Lodge. We stayed over the weekend while we were in the area for our grandson’s hockey tournament. Craig and Janet were very accommodating hosts! Breakfasts were delicious and the view was a picture perfect winter scene, including several deer! The lodge is roomy yet cozy. We hope to be back!

We had a fabulous time at this peaceful, beautiful and welcoming B&B. We stayed here during the grape stomp. The owners were very welcoming and pleasant. The rooms are spacious and very clean, and the grounds are beautiful. What a great, relaxing and peaceful location!

How often have you seen photos of a place to stay that made it look lovely and then…reality. Dear reader, fear not, the photos of Spirit Cove Lodge do not even begin to do justice to this Bed and Breakfast. And I agree with all the reviews (except for the comments about flies hindering hiking as this was not a problem for us and it isn’t appropriate for families with young children). As I said to the owner, I believe this is the nicest Bed and Breakfast we have ever stayed at. The rooms are beautiful as is the entire building and the grounds are picture perfect. Being so close to the bike trail is wonderful. All you need to do is drive down the driveway back to the highway, cross over and there is the trail. If I should be back this way in the future, I would stay here without a second thought and I encourage anyone coming to this area (Long Prairie, Browerville, Alexandria etc.) to stay here. You will not be disappointed. And to repeat what has been said by nearly every other comment, the breakfast is wonderful and imaginative.

Our weekend here was so relaxing. The Lodge is comfortable, the grounds are beautiful, and the breakfasts delicious. Janet and Craig are so nice and made us feel right at home.

This is the place to stay out of the busy hotel sector of Alexandria – It is located in a restful quiet area with lots of placed to sit and enjoy nature. The breakfast is definitely worth getting up for!! Janet and Craig are great hosts!

We stayed at Spirit Cove for a group of friends that were bike riding the Central Lakes Trail. The location was perfect and the place is super comfortable – not to mention that breakfast as well as the cookies (which we ate all of! – sorry) was delicious. Super nice not to have to go out for the morning meal. I would highly recommend staying at this place.

This is a beautiful home! Absolutely the cleanest, most well maintained lodging we have ever stayed at! It was close to town, yet tucked away and peaceful. Craig and Janet treated us like VIP’s! Not only did we have the best breakfasts we have ever had, Janet was able to accommodate my gluten free diet. They also allowed us to use their outbuilding to plug in our e-bikes. Thanks so much for a wonderful stay!

Just left after a peaceful two night stay and we loved everything about this B&B!! The owners are so friendly and the breakfast meals were outstanding….the property is beautiful with walking paths, scenery and lovely landscaping. The accommodations are meticulously kept with up to date amenities…..fresh brewed coffee and homemade cookies weren’t bad either! We would highly recommend—it’s a country setting very conveniently located to the Alexandria lake action….

This was the perfect place to unwind and be spoiled. The hospitality and food was above par. Take advantage of all the great things to do in Alexandria.

We recently stayed for four nights while attending a family reunion. Wonderful place to stay!! Close access to kayaking and bike trails. The lodge is very relaxing, food was wonderful and everything is exceptionally clean. Highly recommend!

A peaceful retreat set on a cozy wooded lot in the Alexandria Lakes Area. Simple and comfortable furnishings make you feel right at home! Craig and Janet were wonderful hosts and the food was awesome. Perfect for a quiet get-away! Thanx Craig and Janet!

This is a gorgeous wood lodge on a private lake just far enough out of town to feel like a secret — but none of that is what makes Spirit Cove special.
Craig and Janet are consummate hosts: they gave us privacy all hours of the day but responded instantly to requests. They provided a fun, unique breakfast every day…including the two extra unplanned days we were snowed in. They provided snowshoes, gratis, to explore the grounds. And when it was finally safe to leave Craig brushed the snow off my car.
I’ll come back in warmer weather.

The hosts were very friendly and kind. The breakfast was awesome, every bite !||the rooms were clean and quiet. a fantastic place to stay for the weekend. We enjoyed every minute of it. really enjoyed the trails and the outdoors.

My husband & I enjoyed our stay at Spirit Cove. Quiet atmosphere, a beautiful view overlooking wildlife & a pond from our room, delicious breakfasts, and cozy places to spend time indoors. We enjoyed the puzzles in the loft & fresh baked cookies during the day. Craig & Janet were wonderful hosts.

We chose this B&B because of it’s location vis the Central Lakes Bike Trail and Lake Wobegon trail. We planned to ride both. We wanted a decent place to stay but,||Spirit Cove Lodge exceeded our expectations in every way. …

Beautiful winter view of the ponds and woods from the Barred Owl room. Very quiet. We enjoyed snowshoeing on the trails winding through the rolling woods. …

Had a wonderful stay, would definitely go back!!!

Beautiful winter view of the ponds and woods from the Barred Owl room. Very quiet. We enjoyed snowshoeing on the trails winding through the rolling woods. We appreciated the parking accommodations for our snowmobile trailer and the close access to both the Central Lakes and the Garfield spur trails. Trails were in great shape with plenty of snow this year. Wonderful breakfasts, fresh cookies and coffee. We need to visit in the summer and bring our bikes. Bruce and Judy

Beautiful room and great breakfast. Very relaxing and romantic getaway. Plan to go back in the summer for hiking.

Craig and Janet were excellent hosts and served delicious breakfasts! The environment was so peaceful! Would highly recommend for a quiet getaway to the Alexandria Lakes area. White Chocolate Raspberry muffins were so tasty!

I cannot recommend this destination B&B enough! Craig and Janet have set the stratospheric bar for a pristine and cozy environment within a location that truly takes you away.

Spent a couple’s getaway in Alexandria and had the pleasure of staying at Spirit Cove Lodge B&B. The lodge is welcoming and peaceful. Common areas are nice and cozy. The room and communal areas were very clean, as well. The ambience is relaxing and serene & the views truly cannot be beat. Craig and Janet were the best hosts! We loved the personal touches like name plates in scrabble letters at the dining table and the fresh baked cookies made by Janet each day. Breakfast was delicious and very unique, loved the creativity of the meals. The lodge is a short drive into town, to restaurants, and the winery/brewery. Would definitely stay here again and rave about it to family and friends. Thank you Craig and Janet for a great stay!

Beautiful retreat, amazing food, and gracious hosts. We will stay again!😀 Kate Lee

Wow, what a great hidden gem! Me and my wife spent our anniversary weekend at the lodge, it is beautiful,quiet, and affordable! We enjoyed going for daily morning walks on the groomed trails, after enjoying outstanding breakfasts each morning. We easily were able to hop in the car and enjoy the other amenities Alexandria has to offer. The rooms were quiet, clean, and comfortable. When we come back to the Alexandria area, we know exactly where we will stay! Thank you Craig and Janet for a wonderful weekend getaway experience!

We chose this B&B because of it’s location vis the Central Lakes Bike Trail and Lake Wobegon trail. We planned to ride both. We wanted a decent place to stay but, Spirit Cove Lodge exceeded our expectations in every way. It would have been a rewarding stay by itself. It is secluded and pristine yet near many attractions activities from aquatic to golf to dining. The Lodge is attractive, comfortable, and relaxing . Our room was spacious and the view from our picture window of the grounds and and cove would’ve made a fine painting. A perfect place o relax and recharge. Craig nd Janet were warm and freindly hosts and very accomodating. The breakfasts were unique and excellent. We came for the biking bur will return for the Lodge. We recommend very highly.

The Pandemic delayed by 18 months our duty to bring our Mother’s ashes back to the family cemetery in Evansville, Mn. Talk about all the planning and various actions that had to be accomplished before our gathering together, family and friends! Amazingly, it all came together and our 2 night stay at Spirit Cove was definitely memorable because of the warmth and kindness of Craig and Janet, the owners of the B&B. Spirit Cove is so beautiful and comfortable and the daily breakfasts were incredible. The site sits on 22 acres of woodlands with 5 trails maintained to wander upon. Trust me, you owe it to yourself to experience the wonders of Spirit Cove and the likes of Craig and Janet.

An uncommonly nice place to stay in Alexandria. Rooms were comfortable, the common areas were spacious and welcoming and the breakfast was tasty. The crown jewel, however, was the outdoors area: forested land with a pond and hiking trails as well as pleasant gathering spaces. The lodge is also close to all the area’s attraction, including the Central Lakes Trail, which is just across the road.

What a wonderful find! We were visiting with family and the nearby cabin could not accommodate us all, so this was a perfect option. The B&B is in a very quiet location, but still close to everything you need. And the breakfasts were awesome! Janet & Craig are wonderful hosts!

It is hard to even express how incredible our recent stay was at the Spirit Cove B&B. The lodge and the outside grounds are immaculate and the breakfasts were amazing. It was the perfect spot for biking both directions on the Central Lakes Trail and the Lake Wobegon Trail. At the end of our ride each day we relaxed at the beautiful, peaceful and tranquil property of Spirit Cove and even walked on some of their groomed trails that led to ponds and other beautiful areas. I have never written a review before and have never been to this area before……if you love to ride your bike this is beyond fantastic of a place to stay. Also Craig & Janet took extreme caution to ensure our safety during this COVID summer. We will be back!!

My husband and I enjoyed our stay at Spirit Cove tremendously. It was the perfect getaway for some peace of mind. The breakfasts are amazing and there are so many comfy nooks in the lodge and outside of the lodge for peaceful reflection or socializing. It’s a short drive to Carlos Creek Winery/22 Northmen Brewing or in to town to do some shopping. The grounds of the lodge are beautiful and it is so quiet and peaceful. We felt completely comfortable staying here in the midst of Covid-19. Every precaution was taken and Craig and Janet adjusted how they did breakfast and both wore masks and practiced social distancing while still visiting and being friendly. We will be back. I would go again next weekend, if I could.

Beautiful, charming place. Great attention to detail. The outdoor decks and patios offer a peaceful place to read and reflect. The surrounding marshes and woods are quite lovely. Delicious breakfast. 5 stars.

First and foremost, we greatly appreciate the infection control precautions at the Lodge. …

Very pretty place with nice walking trails on the grounds. Delicious breakfasts! Our room was very clean with a lovely view of the pond and fields. Close to town and restaurants but back far enough from the road to feel secluded. We had a wonderful time.

Beautiful location, very nice owners. Food was delicious. We stayed 2 nights for our Anniversary. THANK you , Pat and Tom Franks

My stay August 2019 was absolutely wonderful! The owners are warm and very concerned about my accommodations. The setting is tranquil which they’ve capitalized on. I will stay here again! I heartily recommend this location for a memorable reunion of friends or family.
Also, they keep the place immaculate and the food is scrumptious!

First and foremost, we greatly appreciate the infection control precautions at the Lodge. We chose it for it’s convenient proximity to family and now we have a beautiful, peaceful retreat that will be “our place” whenever we are back in the area. The hosts were very accommodating and cooked delicious breakfasts. Next visit we’ll plan time to explore the trails on this welcoming property.

We loved our stay there. So peaceful. And the breakfasts they served us were AMAZING!! Very easy to find. The owners are friendly and kind.

We stayed there and it’s an quiet and peaceful setting. The owners are very friendly and kind. The grounds are beautiful. Loved how you heard the birds singing . It’s a good place to just unwind . No tv which was fine. The breakfasts we had were amazing. We will be back someday .

My husband, mother in law and father in law just spent the weekend here and it was absolutely incredible! Quiet, relaxing and so much more! We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay! 🥰

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our quiet getaway at Spirit Cove. The lodge is set it a serene environment and your stay includes a breakfast like no other. There are so many cozy nooks both inside and outside of the lodge for quiet contemplation or for socializing. I felt completely at ease being there during COVID-19 because all precautions were taken by the owners, including how they served breakfast. It’s a short drive to many destinations or you can hike right on the property. We will definitely be back!

Our friends found this delightful place with plans for a couple days of biking on nearby bike trails. We were warmly welcomed. Our rooms were spacious, comfortable and looked out on the peaceful landscape overlooking their yard, woods and small lake. The breakfasts were delicous with a dininga area that also looks out over this tranquil setting. Craig and Janet were helpful in every way you might hope a host would be. We definetly would return.

Very nice place. Slept so well. Toured the town for treasures.

This is the place you will want to stay if you want beauty , peace and quiet. The hosts are great and the food is so wonderful. We hope to go back.

Beautiful peaceful place great breakfasts, nature trails and very clean.

This is a fantastic place! I visited this B & B by myself, and felt quite comfortable. But this would be a great place to gather girlfriends, couple friends, or have a small family reunion. One of the best places I’ve ever stayed! The food is scrumptious and the place is very immaculate! The owners’ hard work and attention to detail are evident.

My husband found this retreat for a quick anniversary get away. It was absolutely stunning! The B&B is beautiful in itself. The real treat is in the tranquility, solitude, and friendlieness of Craig and Jan. When we walked in, we could literally feel life stress melt away! We spent time in the Great Room, lounged in the Loft, and ate breakfast in front of a beautiful window overlooking the bog and wildlife. We also got the best nights sleep we’ve had in a long while. Talk about a hidden gem, for sure! We will be back when the weather is nicer and spend some time on their trails!

A natural escape – peaceful environment – immersed in nature – DragonFly lovers will be at home….

What a beautiful place. was in Alexandria for my nieces wedding (7-27-19) it’s nice and quite and very clean and well kept up. Breakfast was delicious and all the people that stay eat at one big table So, we met other great people while staying. My cousin and her husband also joined us here . Great weekend, Great people, Great fun you wont be disappointed. MRC

This was the perfect place for my wife and I to spend a night for our 24th wedding anniversary! The B&B building is gorgeous and peaceful, the grounds and setting are very beautiful, the view is fantastic, and the hosts, Janet and Craig, were so very gracious! The facility was very clean, and the breakfast was superb! The other couples we met were also fun to visit with. I would love to return again! So very peaceful and relaxing!

Fantastic place! Great hospitality, super comfortable and QUIET! Both breakfasts we had were very well prepared and presented. The purpose of our trip was to use the nearby bike trails and right away Craig offered for us to leave our bikes overnight in his large garage (both Craig and Janet were very welcoming). The property and grounds are top-notch. You do have to drive a few miles to Alexandria for dinner, but the roads are good, so unless there is a snowstorm that wouldn’t be a deterrent.

We had a great stay. Great food and great lodge. We will definitely be back!

Wow! What a beautiful place! We were in Alexandria for a family wedding on 7.27.19. We traveled to Alexandria from our home four hours away. First of all the resort is just lovely. The grounds are very well maintained with two rooms having a patio walk-out and the other two rooms (upper floor) have a beautiful view of the grounds. We stayed in an upper floor room. We did enjoy the back patio though, as our cousins stayed in one of the lower rooms. Each room has a private bath and air conditioning, which we used since it was a bit warm. There are a few layered decks on the back of the resort, and on the ground level a firepit. The breakfasts we had both mornings were nothing short of a culinary meal. Wonderful French toast “crown” and country sausage on morning one and

We had a great time. The rooms were very clean, the food was amazing and we enjoyed visiting with the other guests at breakfast. It was very peaceful and a great place to relax. The owners were very friendly. We will be back.

My girlfriend and I spent the weekend here and loved it. The facility and grounds are beautiful. Besides the adventures we had in the area, we enjoyed spending quality time at the lodge walking the paths, chatting on the private patio and relaxing in the rockers on the front porch. Breakfasts were tasty and conversations with the other 6 guests were enjoyable. If you want a peaceful place to stay, this is for you. I would highly recommend and look forward to returning.

My husband & I stayed at Spirit Cove Lodge and the beds and pillows were a dream. Quiet and tranquil and the breakfast was wonderful. Craig & Janet do a really nice job. The grounds and Lodge are clean and beautiful. Thanks for a great night sleep!

We went to this lodge for a short getaway from the Twin Cities. This lodge is situated on very beautiful land overlooking a small lake. There are trees and trails. We had difficulty going for hikes due to the flies but we stayed in the corner “turkey” room and had a patio where we sat outside often and enjoyed the scenery. The breakfasts were SO good and filling. We were the only people who ate breakfast (two other guests were staying there and left earlier). We rarely saw the hosts except for breakfast and so felt like we had the place to ourselves. We enjoyed going to the loft to put together a puzzle and had talks into the night in the living room. Would recommend.

This is the place to stay in Douglas County. Peaceful, new and clean amenities with a fantastic breakfast every morning at 8:30. Got some of the best sleep I’ve had in a while at this lodge!

Janet and Craig treat guests like family. Super responsive. Fantastic cooks. Manicured hiking trails. Great coffee!!!

It was a wonderful place to relax. They were a very nice couple ,the place was very clean and the breakfasts were wonderful

Very clean, quiet, beautiful place to stay. Celebrated my wife’s birthday along with her 3 siblings and spouses. We had an excellent weekend. Enjoyed the hiking trails and area attractions. Breakfast was really good too !

Looking for a great quality and Quiet time in the Alexandria area I would choose Spirit Cove. A certain return visit. Thanks Craig and Janet for your hospitality.

Just plane wonderful, relaxing and quaint. Nice woods to walk in. Hospitality is great.

Craig and Janet were wonderful hosts. The breakfast were awesome. It was a wonderful place to relax and explore for 2 nights. We enjoyed sitting out on the patio and watching the wild life. A good place to stay if you are planning a trip to the Alexandria Area

Craig and Janet were wonderful hosts! They made sure we were taken care of, but let us enjoy the quietness.
They have a beautiful property! Multi level deck, fire pit, walking paths and more! This is a wonderful place to go, unplug, and relax.
The lodge is nicely decorated. The room was very clean and quiet. Loved having a walkout patio!
Plenty of board games, porch swings and rocking chairs!
Breakfast was a delight! Homemade French toast crowns, fresh fruit, sausage and hot coffee! Yes, please!
This is one we will definitely be going back to!

My wife and I spent two nights here in July, 2018. It was wonderful. The room was comfortable and very nicely outfitted and arranged for a couple; having the additional option of relaxing in the great room upstairs, or outside on any of the various decks and porches, made it even more perfect. Breakfasts were awesome. Use of a guest refrigerator was another highly appreciated feature, as we like to travel with a chest cooler for snacks and drinks. The Central Lakes Trail is a half-mile ride away, and a garage was available for storing our bicycles overnight. In between bike rides, we enjoyed watching deer wander about the property, and seeing and hearing a wide variety of birds.

This was a great experience for the four of us. We stayed at Spirit Cove in order to visit the Carlos Creek Grape Stomp. Our accommodations were top notch, and for me, who never sleeps well away from home, the beds were pure luxury. The same feeling about the beds must be shared by my wife, because we will shortly be ordering a new king size mattress, and she told me we need to call Spirit Cove to find out what brand they use.

If you want a relaxing cabin feel its great. Who needs t.v. when you have bonfire space, public lounge, hiking trails, and more. The owners are super nice and the place is clean and well cared for. I want to get all our friends together for a weekend and just rent the whole place out.

Wonderful place to stay. Great views, delicious homemade breakfast and lots of neat places to sit and relax throughout the property.

What a treat! We’ve never been to a B&B before and this experience ensures there will be more in our future! So fun to wake up and find the personalized details, see the wildlife (deer, swans) and enjoy the lodge life. Janet and Craig really understand hospitality and go above and beyond to make sure your stay is a great one! THANK YOU!

My daughter and I loved every minute of our stay!! The rooms were lovely, the food was fantastic and the atmosphere was peaceful! We wandered in the woods and saw wild turkeys and a racoon. We enjoyed the sunset from a bench overlooking the pond! Craig and Janet were amazing hosts! Couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay!!

I’ve had a few meetings here and its always been great! The space is awesome and the surroundings serine!

Wonderful hospitality and the facilities are amazing. Very peaceful and in close proximity to a winery and the city but not too close to distract from the peaceful atmosphere. Perfect for our “Sisters Getaway” weekend!

We had a fabulous time at Spirit Cove! We were up for a wedding at Carlos Creek Winery and this was a perfect location to stay, only 10 minutes away (much closer than actually staying in Alexandria) and so refreshing with an excellent breakfast the next morning.

This is a beautiful place to stay. Great hosts, great breakfast, trails to walk and wildlife. Close to Alexandria and lots of family fun.

Thank you very much for your hospitality!!! And your delicious breakfast!!! I loved the peace and quiet. You have a very quaint and very charming place, that you guys call home. Thank you very much!!

Our weekend stay was wonderful. Even though the weather wasn’t accommodating, Craig and Janet WERE. The food was FABulous! It was a very beautiful place to stay!!! We will be returning very soon.

It’s a great place to relax and the food is great and the setting is beautiful it would make a great valentine getting way.

Our first time at a B&B and now we are spoiled. Craig and Janet could not have been better hosts. The room and common areas were better than excellent. Anyone going to Alexandria area or just want a getaway….stay here!

Had a great stay! Beautiful B&B and ohh so cozy. We felt like we were at home with all the room to roam or chat. Country setting so quiet and peaceful. Location was easy and perfect for us gals meeting between Minneapolis and Fargo.

Our group had a lovely time in the Alexandria area and staying at Spirit Cove was a big part of it. The facilities are gorgeous and welcoming. The beds were very comfortable. Breakfasts were delicious and the rooms and grounds were beautiful and serene. Craig and Janet were charming hosts. We’d love to go back.

This was my first stay at a bed and breakfast and was a wonderful experience. The space was lovely, clean, and had beautiful scenery! The owners were welcoming and very polite! Our visit was short but we will definitely go back!

This was the first B&B I have ever been to, and it was wonderful. We went during the early spring and the scenery was beautiful. The trails were fun to snowshoe on (especially after a fresh snowfall!). The breakfast was delicious with a nice variety. It is very clean and comfortable. The Bald Eagle room has a great view! We felt at home during our brief stay (and were well taken care of.)
