The staff was friendly and helpful. Most of the outside seemed fine, but there were areas where stuff was unkept. It was after dark and there was no light by our room except the dim bulb by the door that you couldn’t see anything with. Wallpaper was peeling off the walls. Tile in bathroom very old and mildew stained. There was barely warm water so no hot shower. Bed and bedding was comfortable. Room was basically clean but not very nice.

We were at the off season so there were not many other guests. We had access to a pool across the street and they offered casino vouchers.

That main picture was WILDLY inaccurate and needs to be changed. I signed up for one of the CABINS pictured (the ONLY picture on the site) and ended up in a tiny room. Had the staff not been so helpful in getting us into a cabin, my entire vacation would have been ruined. CHANGE THE PICTURE!!!

Worst experience I ever had first of all we get to the room and it is freezing cold. It took over an hour for the room to warm up. They knew we were checking in. Had the door open mind you it’s a cabin so it’s not in a hotel it’s outside so the door was open. No heat on freezing cold whole night the air blow hot then cold right also, we asked for a early check out which would only been $100 refund because literally there was nothing to do in the town no restaurants opening nothing. The whole town was shut down refused to let us out of our reservation we had to them book a hotel four hours somewhere else and pay an extra 300 and something for one night will never recommend this place to anybody their corporate customer service number person was so rude and not helpful at all and was just extremely rude to me and will never stay there again

I liked the look of the property. I liked that it had a pool and large hot tub pool as well. I liked the rooms had heat and we slept pretty warm throughout the night. I didn’t like how dirty the room was. The swimming pool was so cloudy you couldn’t see the bottom of the pool which to me was concerning.
