Lots of activities for the kids to do - pool, splash area, shuffleboard, tennis courts, basketball, fishing, etc. The staff was also very helpful. My only complaint were the beds weren’t very comfortable. But we would still stay there again!

Room was great, everything was good until the end when the staff starting becoming racist and making racist comments about the "Indians" buying a store down the street. I was really disappointed by that. Like it's 2026 and you run a hospitality business, c'mon!

Loves this hotel and its location. Great to be able to get to kelleys island ferry easily. Staff is friendly and rooms are clean. The decor is a little outdated and beds are not very comfortable. But the amenities and cleanliness makes up for it. Love the pool area and cottages to rent
