I had a pretty rough experience at this hotel. The rooms and service definitely need improvement, and the dining options were quite disappointing. On the bright side, the water park is a fun perk and can be accessed on the day of check-in. However, I would think twice before coming back due to the issues we faced.

We had a great stay at the Grand Lodge! Our room was beautifully decorated and clean, making it a cozy retreat. The kids loved the waterpark, but we were disappointed to find it only open on weekends. While it was a bit inconvenient that check-in was at 4 PM, we still had a wonderful time overall and would definitely return.

The facilities, particularly the pool area, were nice but needed more attention to enhance the overall experience.
