Would stay again but not in front buildings

I would definitely stay here again but only in the pool hotel portion. The rooms in the building closest to the road are musty and need updating. There was a small dehumidifier in the room that I had to empty each day during our stay. My family was in the hotel portion and their rooms were much nicer albeit the bathrooms are extremely small. The staff are very friendly. The pool area very nice. The mini golf was nice but wish they offered discounts for guests. The best part was the free shuttle ride through the Amish countryside and our driver Chris was super nice!

Came for our yearly visit! Always a good stay. Friendly staff, comfortable rooms. Housekeeping left a bit to be desired this stay but everything is always clean. The restaurant is still closed due to a fire on 2023, but is open to guests for breakfast on the weekends. We received coupons for the bakery/cafe across the street which has delicious apple fritters!

Stay was just okay. Glad this was a quick trip only requiring a 1-night stay. Registration area moved way in the back of property. It’s been a year and a half after explosion in front building and still not finished. The separate restaurant had a fire a month after the explosion in the hotel next door and that still hasn’t been reopened for regular meals. Part of the appeal for staying at this establishment in the past was the restaurant within walking distance of our room. Now, it’s like any other average motel with a nice pool.

I had tons of ants in my room 344. I asked could they spray and in stead I was given spray. I asked could they move me and my family to another room but the hotel was booked. The ants were in my bed, on the dresser and in my purse. We stayed here in April this year and had no problem. This time ants were all over us. We tried to make the best of it and sprayed all over the walls, dresser, mattress etc. we were there for 3 nights. Over all the pool was great, the tour was amazing and the staff are friendly.
