Pool and putt-putt are no good. No food, no drink (not even a bottle of water) in pool area. Opens at 10am but closes at 4pm. They will close at 2pm if they are not busy. Pretty run down area. Calling it a resort is a joke. Sorry but these are the facts.
These people have no idea what they are doing. Overcharged four of our cards, said they fixed it after TWO hours of waiting and now it shows not only did they over charge they also added a tip to the bill even though we gave a cash tip. We didn’t even want to leave a tip but felt bad for the waitress for having an incompetent owner and blaming the girl instead of admitting their lack of leadership. Save yourself the trouble and don’t go here.
Great hospitality. Our plans changed when our RV broke down so we rented rooms at the lodge. We arrived lated so the keys were left for us with the air conditioner on. The rooms were rustic but can't beat the lake and pool for summer fun.
No wifi or cable. Had to turn the breaker box on for the hot water and wait for a few hours for the hot water. Had to plug up the fridge . Had to turn the air on. Then when u left u had to turn the breaker off unplug the fridge and open the door. Turn the air conditioner off.
This experience was horrible. They do not know what they are doing. The ppl that run this place are rude and not professional at all. It was old and run down. Pool area was not available even after they said it would be. Beach is very small and nasty. I would never tell anyone to stay here.
