A number of guests were excessively loud later in the evening. Bed was squeaky and moderately comfortable. Price for room was higher than what I expected, but I also did not use the water park/pool.

We have stayed here a few times and have never had an issue. It was a Sunday afternoon and check in was at 4. We (and others) were trying to check in around 4:30. We were told to have a seat and would have a 15 minute wait for our room to be ready. After waiting 45 minutes, we checked at the desk (near where we were sitting) and found out our room was ready! We were wondering how long we would have sat there if we wouldn't have asked. There was a family of 5 who had been waiting over an hour before we arrived. We were disappointed this time around, but the rest of the stay was good.

We liked the rustic/cabin like atmosphere. The room was nice and the water park was great for the kids. Although the food was good at the restaurant, the service was extremely slow. Our grandkids had their meals and had finished before my wife and I even received our meals. The hotel could probably benefit with some upgrades, maybe paint and new linnen and matresses also.

Unprofessional, poor service

About a week before our stay, I secured early check in for an added fee, because we had an event to attend that started before check in time. When we arrived for check in, we were denied our room stating there were non available. When asked how long it would be, the hotel staff could not provide a time. We were also denied a bathroom to use so we could change into our event clothes, so we had to change at the event center. It then took them SEVERAL HOURS to answer the phone when we attempted to call them regarding the reservation. Then when we finally got our room at 11 pm, I went to use the shower only to find that the shampoo and body soap were both empty. They did give us a 10% refund. Don’t stay here if you want to have your room on time, or if you like good customer service, because they just can’t seem to figure it out.

The property is slightly dated but overall in good condition. The staff was very pleasant. The rooms are larger than most traditional hotel rooms. The breakfast is typical not warm eggs, potatoes and sausage.

The computer system is old, so check in took longer with only one person in front of me.only one of the two computers could check people in. And I did the pre check in. Super nice staff, could use a little update and it’s weird that the halls Don’t have air conditioning. The floor directly under the table in my room didn’t get a vac since there were so many Bobby pins everywhere. But seemed clean otherwise. They also couldn’t get the pre purchased food gift cards working for the restaurant because of the old comp system. Update this place and you have a winner!
