Was there for the Sanford Futures Golf Tournament. The room was wonderful, clean and spacious. Loved the walk in shower. Casino was fun. Hotel staff were friendly and professional. Had a great waitress/bartender at the Sports Bar. Only negative was the only place available to eat with minors was the Drop In Cafe. Was looking forward to Robert’s Buffet but that was closed the three days I was there.

I loved the fact that it was fully accessible for my Mom who took the "best shower in years". It was a long way for her from the lobby to the room with no benches along the way for her; she ended up sitting on a decorative coffee table to rest.

Beautiful property, would have loved to enjoy the outdoor pool and/or golf course, but it rained during our time. The room was very nice, with a beautiful view of the course. Staff was very friendly. My negative feedback would be that the slots did not pay out much, at all and during our Friday Saturday trip the casino had no drawings or promotions.. Wish they had the breakfast buffet option on both Saturday and Sunday instead of Sunday only. Ruthie's restaurant on the property was overpriced for the quality of food.

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Disliked: Staff & service
The hotel was fantastic. The pool and golf course are top notch. We attended a comedy show. Well staffed and easy entry and exit. Afterwards, on a Saturday night, there was not a waitress to be seen in the entire casino and the bars were horribly under-staffed. That is a recipe for disaster and not a good visit. Not to mention the amount of money that the casino is losing by not selling a drink to people who want it at $5.50 minimum cost. This needs resolved or we will most likely not be back. We can go to the Hard Rock Casino in Sioux City.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
First impressions were that the overall area was very beautiful and well kept. Golf course and poolside staff were very friendly and accommodating. Very limited dining options and food is in consistent from one dinner to the other. Poolside sandwiches and fries were excellent but Cafe's food was not very pleasing. Walking area around the pool was very slippery with several people falling down while walking. Have the Safety Manager conduct a Force of Friction test around the pool area. Golf course was excellent. Limited other amenities around the area due to the casino/resort being located in the middle of a corn field.

Third time not such a charm

I enjoyed the 2 previous stays, but this time, not so much. First call for reservation gave a quote of over $190, got room thru 3rd party at $176. Check-in totally not so friendly. Bathroom had "leftover" items from previous guest. TV service (A&E) provided horrible reception (screen freeze, continuous error 771 messages). 3rd floor snack machine "out of order". Just not happy at all with this stay!

We booked this room strictly for swimming. While swimming my son’s eyes began to burn so bad they were blurry. We tried the shower, fresh water and eye drops. Half of our stay was ruined due to this. Such a bummer.
