Nice place. More staff needed for gift shop n coffee bar. To many people checking in for one person to make the Starbucks coffee. Kind of a bummer had to go somewhere else for the coffee. Place was nice kid had a blast in water park. Pizza in bar restaurant was good. Third time staying here will come again was worth the money. Hot tub is cool in winter months being outside in a hot tub is cool .

Martha, Appleton

It is a lovely hotel with a spectacular log entrance, rustic pub, swim area, coffee shop (with Starbucks). Staff was friendly. We stayed only 1 night in a standard double. It was clean but awkwardly designed (and when peeking in other standard rooms being cleaned, all were the same). The bathroom (shower,tub, toilet only) was so tiny as to be difficult to navigate. It was totally inaccessible - hard to move, deep tub/ no handbar. Sink was in bedroom space. The couch in the bedroom was next to TV facing the opposite wall so no way to. Watch TV except in bed. So despite being a nice looking room, not particularly comfortable.
