I the continental breakfast was just distasteful, lacking pretty much everything. The room we stayed was so stinky. The bathroom was the worse part of all. Didn’t have toilet paper, and the water in the shower and sink smelled like excrement and rust, we felt dirtier after showering! Like how? The pool was so dirty on the bottom, the water in the pool old, and so stinky as well. I think the only good thing my husband and I really liked and enjoyed was the hot tub. Nothing else. Food was crazy overpriced as well. Overall the experience was jus bad, not just bad, like really, really bad, bad.

The lobby is very welcoming and the options for the bar/restaurant were wonderful to have onsite. The walkway on the 2nd floor to our room had a rotted board and the door plus patio door was unlocked when we arrived. The pool, gym and locker room building was convenient. At night, the room stayed cold and when the heater kicked on, it blasted cold air before turning warm. We loved the location and this would be a great spot in the summer since you’re not indoors as much.

The fire place in our room did not work. It was freezing. Like my face was cold to the touch while sleeping. The heat kept turning on and off on the heater/AC unit. It would blow consistently but sometimes cold air. If you turned it above 7 it went cold. Our toilet would not flush you had to remove the back of it. The bed was nothing but springs. I called the desk and they said they knew the fire place in my room was complaint worthy and I could move rooms....I was confused then why I was put in that one in the first place. We had our dog and a portable kennel so we did not want to move and risk something else being broken (that's the vibe of the place) great views but I'd recommend a hotel for these prices and then go to the state park vs this lodge.
