The Hotel Donaldson - Fargo (HoDon)

When most people think of destination spots for their anniversary (14), Fargo is not usually at the top of the list. However, when you are vacationing in Ottertail with the family, it is the closest thing to South Beach in Northern Minnesota.
A landmark hotel it was remodeled with Microsoft / Great Plains software money a few years back. With only 17 rooms , it is all the things that the Nicollet Island Inn of Minneapolis tries to be. It is a a great getaway with a rooftop bar with Heineken on tap, Kim Crawford SavBlanc as the house white, and natural Minnesota grasses growing along the patio.
There is a hot tub for guests, but since most of us are in our 40's thankfully there were no billboards for birth control floating in the water.
