We’ve stayed in this hotel many times. Over the years we’ve seen a decline in cleanliness, service and overal conditions. This time the room didn’t get cleaned once, two times we had to go to the front desk because not everything was replaced. We picked up towels of the floor , bought stuff for the little kitchen ourselves (one plate, no spoons, one glass for the whole cottage), because at some point we couldn’t even be bothered anymore. Front desk personnel correctly empathetic, but didn’t really care. We would receive a (small) discount (about 50 dollars), even that was forgotten. Definitely not the standard it used to be anymore…(and no, i can’t blame them for the 4(!!) police cars that showed up at the property one evening. Not a clue what happened, and don’t want to know. Had plans to return this summer and needed two cottages for that, but we will definitely be looking for another place 🙄

Although DirectTV had an issue on the property for 36 hours and we couldn’t watch our Thanksgiving Day Parade and Football games. The wonderful Lakehouse reception staff waived our resort fee which was a very nice surprise.

What my family and I really liked about this property is all the different lake activities to choose from. We rented a boat and it was a great experience for the kids. We love pickleball, super excited to have it on the property, the down fall is that the courts are packed all morning and afternoon from people that don’t stay at the resort so you are limited on being able to get your own court. Also for the price I expected the rooms to be a lot more upgraded. The lighting was not great at all and the carpet was pretty dirty. They are also low on house cleaning, my family and I stayed four nights and our room was only cleaned once. Also didn’t like that they charge extra to rent bikes when the property is not that big. Overall it was a great time but definitely would only stay two nights max if I would return.
