Absolutely adored this resort! Super-friendly staff and tons of extra perks. They've got a store for your every need, a killer restaurant with live music, and even boat rentals. Rainy days were no match for their restaurant. Only gripe? No kitchen in the rooms. But hey, we're totally coming back – this hidden gem is a keeper!
Started visiting the facility in 1966. Watched it grow and expand without destroying the 1900 feel. We have a cabin at Stonewall, built in 1907. The family has seen the WWII prisoner camp and the small guard homes.
We rented cabin 306 for three nights. We had a rainstorm come through and our cabin leaked in 4 different places! It was coming in the door so much I had to use their towels to stop the flow of water. I went to the restaurant to get more towels and the maintenance man even said to me "yeah, that needs a new roof". When the next day called for another storm we decided to leave a day early instead of dealing with this situation again. When checking out a the booth and we explained why we were leaving a day early, the lady in the booth said "yes, we have heard that before about that cabin!" So why would they keep renting out a cabin that everyone is fully aware of that leaks when it rains?? I don't mean a little drip in one section either. They never offered a refund for an earlier departure because of this just "we are aware of it"... Then fix it!!
We camped at this wonderful campground with our extended family (kids and grandkids). The lake is great, we fished (we caught fish every day the kids thought it was awesome), kayaked and rented the pontoon boat (boat was the nicest rental I've had). The camp sites were spacious and the big pine trees really set them apart from many of the other resorts. The restaurant is excellent! We ate there twice for dinner and really enjoyed both meals. Lastly the staff there were great! They accommodated out 10 people for dinner easily. The facilities were clean. I never saw trash laying around or trash receptacles (bear proof) that were over full. Definitely going back!
We always enjoy our stay. We have a travel trailer and stay in the RV campground. The campground is great. The lake and scenery is fantastic.
We understand the need for speed bumps on the roads, but they need to be marked with signs. There are too many of them between the entrance and the check-in booth. They are too tall, especially for vehicles with trailers.
