Average at best…
This hotel Is mediocre at best. I would say it’s a juiced up motel 6 with a good dinner place and bar nearby that keeps people coming back. The beds and pillows are subpar and while it calls itself a hotel, the doors open to the parking spots which gives it a motel vibe. I would not stay here again. There are several other places nearby that are a lot nicer for the same price.

1 night is not enough!
1 night is not enough. Not sure if it’s because it’s the Christmas season but our stay was magical! Check in experience was fantastic. Front desk was thorough in what the resort fee includes and they even provided a refreshing spiked Arnold Palmer. The resort is quiet but vibrant. Our king size mattress was so comfortable. We originally booked a night but extended our stay as we had an amazing time and didn’t want to leave. We’ve already discussed making this our vacation spot anytime we need a quick getaway.

What my family and I really liked about this property is all the different lake activities to choose from. We rented a boat and it was a great experience for the kids. We love pickleball, super excited to have it on the property, the down fall is that the courts are packed all morning and afternoon from people that don’t stay at the resort so you are limited on being able to get your own court. Also for the price I expected the rooms to be a lot more upgraded. The lighting was not great at all and the carpet was pretty dirty. They are also low on house cleaning, my family and I stayed four nights and our room was only cleaned once. Also didn’t like that they charge extra to rent bikes when the property is not that big. Overall it was a great time but definitely would only stay two nights max if I would return.
