27th Anniversary night runied
We only stayed 4 hours then was refunded our money when we found pieces of clear plastic in the whirlpool tub that after 40 minutes was still not full enough to turn in the jets. Found out they had spend 4 days fixing this room after last person trashed it. No shower curtain had to go get one from them. Light slash exhaust fan in bathroom was very noisey like something was broke inside of it. Room had very bad lighting had to use flash light to see all the floating plastic in the tub. Was aa clam as i could be when i demanded the redund off our money.

Such a cozy, inviting vibe! There were common areas that were very welcoming. The balconies and views and outdoor areas were very peaceful. Very handy having a restaurant/bar within walking distance.

Nice little place
Nice little place off the beaten path yet right by the highway. I could nitpick about the small little things showing age but it was clean, comfortable, and affordable so we were happy and would stay again

This was an excellent stay. A charming woodsy resort. Old cabin style decor. Rooms were clean and well maintained and staff was helpful and attentive. It's a very nice location with balconies for every room. The rooms on the backside have a woodsy view. There is a conference center and a Pizzeria Uno on property. The continental breakfast is what you would expect but was still good. If you are looking for a relaxing place with a charming vibe this is it.

This place was seriously so cute and we really enjoyed our stay! Only thing I would recommend , room 211 definitely needs some attention to the bathroom counter before someone leans too hard and it falls. Other than that. We would absolutely stay again and we appreciate the hospitality <3

I have never stayed anywhere that made an issue of bath towels…..until now. We had two towels in the room and need three (one for husband and two for me - hair and body). We went to the desk on day one and asked for a third towel and were given a hard time, saying their policy was to limit towels provided to folks. We explained why we needed three. We were eventually given a third towel and had to provide our room number-not sure if this was being logged somewhere. Days two and three - same thing, because housekeeping would come in the room when we were gone and take three and leave two. (We would have hung a do not disturb sign on the door so we could keep the three towels, but there was no sign for us to use.) We can’t believe this was even an issue! What hotel makes patrons feel like criminals when asking for a TOWEL!? Bed was rock-hard. As others have stated, facility and room were very dated and ‘beat up’. We did not mind that, as we read other reviews and knew what to expect. We didn’t see adequate plugs near both sides of the bed. There was a small balcony overlooking a small wooded area. We were checked in my Rob, who was very welcoming and helpful. Rob was also NOT one of the people we dealt with about towels. Rob was great. We have family in the area and it would have been nice to have found a place to stay when visiting. Unfortunately, we didn’t find that to be the Spring House Inn.

Gorgeous property, clean & quiet rooms with balconies that over look the surrounding nature attached to every room. I will definitely stay here again.

Very nice place to stay. The only reason i didn't give 5 star, and I'm sure others probably thought the same, but there's no elevator as far as i know. Carrying everything was a little hard for me. The other was, maybe there is a reason, there were no chairs to sit on the balcony to enjoy the view. Other than that, i appreciate the comfortable place you made for us to stay after a long drive. Thank you. The housekeepers are awesome.

We stayed at this property on our way to Chicago since it was near Indiana Dunes. Although it had a unique lodge look in a pretty wooded setting, I would only give this hotel a "average" rating. The staff was not very friendly, the room was clean but very outdated (and noise easily heard from other rooms). There was breakfast but very limited, so we didn't eat there.
