Property needs to undergo extensive renovations. The carpets are completely musty and revolting. There isnt enough staff. We never ate on site due to the condition of the property - we could only imagine the nightmare in the kitchen. Location is good.

So much to do with the kids. The fire in the evening was wonderful- we met lots of people there. The room was good. The bathroom was a bit cramped and the door wouldn't open all the way. Dined in the restaurant- good food, excellent service. We dined inside. Outside on the patio there was a group who had 2 dogs with them at their table. If they had dined inside I would have been upset. I have a diabled granddaughter and she would have had a hard time getting down to the waterfront area. There is no elevator in the main building so she would have had to crawl down the stairs to the pool. NevertheIess, I would definitely recommend Hidden Valley resort to most family and friends.

The hotel needs a huge upgrade for the price we paid. We were going stay 2 nights but only stayed 1 night due to noise from adjacent room. We did advise the front desk And they did advise the adjacent room to keep quiet but they did not.As indicated by the front desk , the following day,that all rooms have adjacent rooms and though they do have doors in between, there is no noise barrier between the doors. Also there a huge gap under the main door which allows noise and light in from the hallway. Also the indoor pool was not available due to a maintenance issue. We will never, never stay at this hotel again.

Property is dated and in need of a refresh. Location is very good - right beside Deerhurst and only a few minutes drive to Huntsville. Enjoyed having access to kayaks to use on the lake.

We have been visiting this property for many years and it is sad to see it in disrepair. The steps leading down to the grounds were badly peeling, in need of a simple paint job. The tennis courts continue to decay, year by year. Such a shame for a resort so nicely situated on Penn Lake, with beach access. A little pride of ownership and management would go a long way.
