An average stay at a high price point

The resort is clean, spacious and in a beautiful area. As was to be somewhat expected, over a summer weekend there were a number of wedding parties so it felt very busy. On our final night (Sunday) it was quieter and felt better. Some aspects of the resort are quite tired - peeling paint and wallpaper in our bathroom/ bedroom. The kids outdoor pool felt worn in places and the indoor slide particularly so - it looked rusted. This was disappointing as the pools were one of the reasons we wanted to stay here with a young family. Sadly the service was quite poor - over 30min to get served a coffee in the am. Not enough staff at all considering the guest numbers. At the Smores by the fire evening, we didn’t even realise the girl that was meant to be staff was working - she was literally watching TikTok on her smartphone.

The main building with the reception desk was nice, the living quarters are old. The room with 2 queen size beds is way too small. Outside seating area is not nice, if you order room service, no place to sit and eat other than in bed. This resort hosts weddings, the music blasting till midnight was not great as the walls are thin, no chance of sleeping till past midnight.

The hallways throughout the resort smelled like a old weird smell and you had to make sure your room door was closed when leaving the room because the door never shuts completely unless u shut it yourself but otherwise it wasn't bad

There was a room mix up. When I checked in early (which I paid for) I was given room 1502, but when I went to put my bags in the room approximately 2 hours later there was someone else's luggage in the room. I made a phone call to the front desk who stated I needed to go to the front desk to get this straightened out which I did. The hotel is so large that it's hard to get around if you are a senior citizen.

Food options were great and the property has a lot of charm and character. Very fitting for the lakefront. Room was good but there was some minor damage and dirtiness in areas along the floor. The bed mattress was also sunken in on one side so I slept on the opposite end.
