Staff is outstanding. Everyone was friendly and helpful. The villa room we stayed in needs a refresh. Shower took forever to heat up, then was set at a temp you could not increase for a hotter shower. Should have amenities like shower caps and wash cloths without asking. Room lighting was dim. Coffee maker was basic, only pods even for tea. For a resort expected more resort style amenities in the room.

The staff was friendly and the service was good. We checked in for a night and to spend the day at the pool. The pool was very dirty. Maybe the filter wasn't working? Garbage, bugs, leaves, hair floating in the pool. Kids floating eating ice cream.

This isn't my first time staying here. I’ve visited before with my family because I love the lake and have good memories. This time, I made a last-minute reservation to spend some quiet time alone after going through a difficult experience. The hotel seems to be in a similar condition as before, but I was disappointed to find that the walking paths for solo strolls weren’t properly maintained. Most of all, I was frustrated by a billing error in which I was charged twice for an unexpected fee, and even after calling, the issue wasn’t properly resolved.
