We loved our stay. Ate breakfast at the lodge restaurant. The eggs were horrible and everyone in the restaurant that ordered eggs were not satisfied. I feel we should have been given a discount on our food. other that that, our stay was great

It was a very relaxing and peaceful stay. On a Wednesday, so very quiet. My lodge was on the lake side with a screen door... with perfect weather. Food was awesome. I had country fried steak with derby pie. I'll be back!!

Great getaway for couples!
Weekend stay didn't disappoint! Great location near the Rough River Dam, with a view from our room that was absolutely beautiful. Check-in was fast, and the both the lodge and room were clean. A highlight was an American Eagle flying by the lodge during our morning coffee on the balcony. We will definitely be back!

Room was only accessible by stairs. No flat surface I could roll my luggage cart down. Also one of those stairwells was rotted and collapsing and was taped off the whole time and was an eye sore they need to fix.
