The staff were all super hospitable. Our room was clean and comfortable. Location cannot be beat with accessibility to so many attractions nearby and the property grounds, adjacent to the Canyon Lake Park made for a comfortable place to come back and relax each day. This resort is incredibly affordable and a hidden gem. Our whole family loved it!

The cabins and rooms at Canyon Lake Resort are intentionally rustic, but clean and well maintained for their age. The staff is very friendly and helpful. My wife thoroughly enjoyed watching the local ducks and geese who seem to have taken up permanent residency around the property.
