Disliked: Amenities
The property looked amazing in the photos online. Given the time of year that I stayed it was still pretty. My issues were that there were buckets throughout the building to collect water leaking from the roof/ the above floor. The complimentary breakfast was extremely disappointing. Cereal,bagels or toast and coffee or juice. They had warmer trays out like there should have been warm foods but sadly they were empty because no one put any food in them.

Needs Major Improvement

The rooms are decent but poorly maintained. There are no USB ports. The Wifi was inconsistent. The TV and channel selection was excellent. The pool area, common areas, and dining room was filthy two days in a row. The breakfast NEVER provided fruit or muffins. There were no bagels the second day. The entire breakfast area was NEVER cleaned either day. The floors in the dining room haven’t been properly cleaned in months or years. We will not be back anytime soon.

Premium Price Tag & Underwhelming Grub

Fourwinds Lakeside Inn & Marina certainly looks the part. The location on the lake is stunning, and the potential for a relaxing getaway is definitely there. However, a few key issues held it back from being the truly great experience I was hoping for. Firstly, let's talk about the elephant in the room: the price. The rooms, while comfortably sized and generally clean, are definitely on the expensive side for what you get. You're paying a premium for the lakeside location, no doubt, but I'm not sure it's entirely justified. I've stayed in comparable rooms with better amenities for less. Keep an eye out for deals and promotions, or be prepared to shell out a bit more than you might expect. Secondly, and perhaps more disappointingly, the on-site dining was a letdown. I was hoping to enjoy a leisurely lakeside dinner, but the restaurant fell short. The menu felt overpriced and unimaginative, and the food itself was just… okay. Nothing particularly bad, but certainly nothing memorable. I'd recommend venturing off-site for better options. On the plus side, the location really is lovely, and the potential for watersports and relaxation is high. The staff were generally friendly and helpful. But ultimately, the high price point and lackluster restaurant kept this from being a truly stellar experience. Fourwinds has the potential to be great, but needs to address these issues to truly shine. Recommended with reservations.

Rated better than it should have been

This is a fairly old facility, but generally well-kept. The long, dimly lit hallways with dark, ornamental oak door frames lent an air of American Horror Movie and The Shining. Still, the room was comfortable and clean (though the carpets were dark and I wasn't too comfortable walking on them with bare feet.) I was also surprised they didn't have an alarm clock in the room. Finally, the breakfast situation was pretty sparce (juice machine broken, no creamer for the coffee.) But for the price, I'd do it again.
