The hotel is very dated. Our ac unit in the was falling apart, the knob on the drawer fell off as soon as we opened the drawer. The Shampoo bottle fell off of the shower wall and was never reattached our wntire stay. There is not much signage to direct you. They would benefit from using an ap with the locations on it.

Right on the lake

Great hotel right on lake Ozark. Boat docks, swimming, lots of games, arcade. Pretty cool spot! Parking was not great. AC in room was so loud and old. Not clean. Fridge in room was great. Tv remote - the “off” button was actually the “on” button, minorly annoying figuring that out.
