Most of my family met at Indiana Beach - my son and I stayed here - the trolly that runs to Indiana Beach was right across the road, so it was convenient for that.

The ONLY problem we had was that one of the gas grills was out of gas - but we finally figured out that the other one was full. The one thing I didn't like (which wasn't the property's fault) was the water! Make sure you bring your own bottled water unless you are used to sulpher water! I would have rather been on the first floor as the stairs were hard for this old person to navigate.

Location was excellent, facility seems newer, so very clean and modern. Access was super easy, and the lake views are gorgeous.

Price was a bit high, but given the economy and price of anything these days, I guess it wasn’t terrible for the location. Bed wasn’t very comfortable but it sufficed after a long day on the boardwalk.

The room was nicely done and the view from the deck was nice. Location close to the Indiana Beach asument park. Was great.

The stairs leading up to the room were shaking was not sure if it was going to give way. There was no good place to hold on the railing as it was all wood not treated and has splinters.

Location to the amusement park was ideal. Plenty of parking. Clean room and grounds are well maintained

I received a call asking if I needed anything and I told them no I was all set. I was relaxing on the bed in the air-conditioning when all of a sudden someone coded the door and opened it up without even knocking. Why? good question seeing I already said I didn't need anything. No clue as to why this woman was coming into my room unannounced and without knocking first made me a little uncomfortable.

We absolutely loved this resort. It was beautiful and relaxing. The area that it's in is perfect. The staff(owners) let's us in a couple of hours early because there was a mess up on Booking.com m's part. The price was fantastic. Will definitely stay again.

Very nice spot! I was very pleased with everything! From the location to the customer service EVERYTHING was amazing! The owners were very very nice and helpful from booking to us locking ourselves out of our room! This is a little spot of paradise!

Everything was wonderful!

Property was in great shape, walking distance to the park and so clean and renovated! Wi-Fi and Roku- awesome! The view from the dock was awesome and it was the perfect little place to stay!

Nothing! It was great!
