Very cute and clean resort. Not a whole lot to do this time of year though. The beds are not as comfortable however and pillow was flat as a pancake. Breakfast was ok. Very loud stomping from people above us. Other than that, we enjoyed our stay

Great find!! A little old school but VERY clean and spacious! We got a jacuzzi room with lake view, gorgeous area. Service on point. Shower head was AMAZING. Kid play area, beach volleyball court, walking path and small beach area. Wish we woulda been able to get in before 1 am, but came in after Cedar Point. Great place for family reunions or events!
