I absolutely loved my stay at this resort! The views were breathtaking, and my cabin was cozy and perfectly designed for relaxation. The staff was incredibly attentive and made us feel right at home. One downside was that the dining options were a bit limited, especially when we tried to get takeout during peak hours. Overall, the amenities and atmosphere made it a memorable getaway.

We had a memorable stay overall, enjoying the cabin's amenities and the unique charm of the area. However, we faced some issues that made it less comfortable, like the mouse problem in our cabin and the lack of shoveled pathways. Despite this, the fantastic kitchen facilities and welcoming atmosphere made our experience worthwhile.

The Grand Lodge offers a family-friendly atmosphere with various activities and clean accommodations, but the dining experience and some facilities need improvement. The rooms are comfortable enough for a good night's sleep, and the pool area is enjoyable for families. However, there were concerns about noise in the lodge and dining service issues that could deter guests looking for a seamless experience.

Rooms

7.0

The room we stayed in was clean and had the basics like two queen beds, a TV, a fridge, and a microwave, but it felt a bit dated and tired. I would rate the rooms a 7 because while they were comfortable, they need some updating to feel more modern.

Service

5.0

The service in the dining area was lacking. We had to wait a long time for our orders, and there was only one server juggling multiple roles. It left a bad taste in my mouth despite the food being decent when it finally arrived. I would rate the service a 5 due to the slow response and no apology from staff.

Location

9.0

The location is fantastic for exploring the area, especially with Gooseberry Falls and other attractions nearby. Being close to the water was a highlight for us, making it perfect for family outings. I rate the location a solid 9 for its accessibility to beautiful spots.

Dining

6.0

The onsite dining experience was just okay. The food was good, but the service was chaotic and inconsistent, which overshadowed the meals. Given the prices, I would rate the dining a 6 as it didn't meet expectations for a resort.

Facilities

7.0

The pool area was clean and well-kept, and the outdoor activities for families were a fun part of our stay. However, the hot tub had some safety issues due to cracked tiles. For this reason, I rate the facilities a 7, as they were enjoyable but could use some repairs for safety.
