No Wi-Fi, no A/C and the room was dirty. Was supposed to be in the hotel, but instead they put us in there “annex” . When asked about the a/c we were told to use the fan in the closet and crack the window. When asked about the Wi-Fi, we were told to drive 1/4 mile away after 8pm or go to the hotel next door and ask for there password and use it in there parking lot. Not to mention the restaurant ran out of several entrees and deserts but or reservation time. Very piss poor operation.

Understaffed and overpriced for what you’re getting. Decided to splurge and stay in the park for a night. Bad decision. Definitely would not do it again. Long waits for service at at the bar. Dinner menu was less than inspiring. What staff they did have were very nice.

The Lake Hotel is a wonderful, comfortable place. We were able to find it using pre-downloaded maps on our Garmen. Google comes in and out around that area, so we could not count on that for directions. Once there though, it was a bit unclear where to go to park or what to do with the car while checking in, and the young staff were not very well informed on this. But that is really the only complaint I have as the rest of our one-night stay was wonderful. We were even able to get into the dining room for dinner even though we did not have a reservation. The scenery is lovely, complete with wandering elk. And we took a nice little walk up the shoreline to some near-by shops. All in all a very nice time. Thank you

Internet was Ethernet in room only. We had to borrow an adapter from the front desk ... which did not work. When I reported it,she just shrugged and said sometimes they work and sometimes they don’t. The room was clean but basic. The restaurant menu was nice but food was ok and service was slow. I would not stay there again ... it was not worth the cost
