i’ve never been here before, so I did not know what I was getting myself into. I was under the impression that it was more cabinet like and it wasn’t where we were placed was in a motel type of place. I was under the impression that there was a sliding door that went right out to the lake. Well there was but we’re on the second floor so you only had like a patio I guess so that was a little bit disappointing and then it snowed so we’re outside trying to haul all this luggage up to the second floor on the slippery ass steps and then I thought it would be more modern. I kind of felt like I was gonna get murdered, but I didn’t. It seemed very safe. It just looked really old. I guess, but it was clean and staff were super awesome. The continental breakfast was pretty nice. Actually we were the only ones in there so it was kinda nice just having that peacefulness there was waffles which were amazing and then eggs and muffins and juices and milk and coffee. It was really nice. Actually it all in all I would recommend this place to somebody if you’re looking just to get away nothing bougie just basic. It was nice.

The restaurant and staff are great! Food was amazing as usual. Main lodge is well maintained and beautiful. Cedar lodge is NOT!! We rented the lift kitchenette so our teen daughters could have own space. The room was outdated and in desperate need of TLC. All beds were broken. Recliner was broken. Fireplace did not work. Paint was falling from ceiling and walls. Half the lights did not work. Definitely mold in there somewhere as I had reactions to it.

The walls are paper thin. Very loud people on both sides of us sounded like they were in our room with us. Called a noise complaint and no change from the loud ass people on both sides. Left a message at the front for the owner/manager and no call. The property is beautiful, the food was great. Our waitress and bartender both amazing and the front desk employees very friendly.

Not the best for winter accomodations

A winter stay in this cabin was not a good choice. Snow blew in under the door, floor heating units not great and carpet frayed and furniture very old. Beds squeaky and soft. The sheets and towels were clean and the breakfast had some nice muffin choices. The hotel lobby was clean and tidy and decorated for the holidays nicely. Really pretty view of the frozen lake.

The Golden Retriever Security as well as the all the Staff were exceptional. The hot tub closes at 8pm. Definatly an issue. It is soo dark in many guest areas. Not a fan of that. The resort needs some love in the hallways, stairs, bathrooms, and pool area.
