Waste of time and a bigger waste of money. Spa pricing was not disclosed upfront when asked the only answer I recieved from 3 seperate people was it was $-- per person per day during the stay. Tried hitting us with a exce bill with ludacris pricing on each individual thing we did. Mens sauna was down. Salt room was not good kinda just a room with a single funky looking wall around each corner no kinda seal or closure. Most things in the spa were unavailable. The room was mid with nothing drastically wrong but a bunch of minor inconveniences. They list niceities like an "immersion cinema" and an "arcade". I think the "immersion cinema" is the same tv they use in the rooms its just in a bigger room with a bunch of uncomfortable chairs. The restaurants were closed 7/10 during "open" hours. The arcade has like 10 things and most of them you can find at random travel rest stops in the midwest. We spoke to Tim the manager at the resort about the pricing and he pretty much said "you should've asked upfront" "there is nothing I can do" repetitively. We kept saying how we did ask upfront. I was very clear about having a limited budget and asked repeatedly about pricing when being signed up for things. Honestly, this was supposed to be a little R&R honeymoon we were given a few hundred dollars to fund. R&R ruined with the stress of them wiping our savings. We wouldn't have driven 2 hours to spend 20x more than we could have going to a local spa in IL. Would not recommend

We only stayed one night but we enjoyed the property! The indoor pool was great for our kids (ages 2 and 6) ; very well controlled temperature. The arcade was really small but it was fine for 20-30 min of fun. We had a nice brunch at 240 west on Sunday morning and the views of the lake were pretty!

We arrived Thursday afternoon, check in was very easy. The rooms are spacious and nicely decorated. I asked for adjoining rooms abd they were. What I didn't like was our rooms weren't cleaned while we were out. From Thursday until check out on Sunday, nothing was touched. We had to ask for clean towels, soap, and water. I assume that the price I had paid for the room included upkeep. Also the ice machine on our floor was inoperable the entire time. It's a sma thing, but it's a nice thing to have. When there's events i.e. weddings, parking can be a bit hard to find. The restaurant and coffee shops were very good. Staff is attentive, food was nicely prepared. Amenities are very nice, pool, spa, movie theater. Beautiful outdoor firepit. Very pretty views of the lake also. I would definitely recommend The Abbey, and I would stay again.

We have stayed at The Abbey numerous times and unfortunately this last visit was a little disappointing. We were put in the most run down building, the entry to the building was a trip hazard, the room was clean-ish, but could've used some touch-ups & remodeling. The bed was comfortable. The Waterfront Bar is a favorite go-to for dinner and drinks and while the food was good, the service was not.

Decent resort. Unfortunately the first room they gave us had people still in it when we opened the door…surprise!!! Was hoping they would perhaps upgrade our room because of the issue but no luck. Beds were the worst part of the stay. Finishes a bit outdated. But property was clean, quiet, and relaxing. Would not spend the prime time rates but $130 for a Sunday seems about right.
