It would have been nice to have a bar and Restraunt as advertised. But they were all closed on holiday weekend. Booked there to have the facilities on site and had nothing. Waste of money very unhappy about with stay. Had to pay a 25 dollar a day resort fee which is fine but no drink or food available at the resort.

Second time staying at this property! Two small children, convenient to town, lake is safe & clean, decent pool and nice rooftop with delicious bar food. Breakfast on site. Rooms in the front are a bit outdated, stay more down towards the lake if you can. Will say I was highly disappointed with the front staff, highly unprofessional after a miscommunication with using lakeside after “check out” be aware, can not stay on property past 11am lol

Surfside was absolutely amazing! The staff was so pleasant, and Olivia went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. We had a small issue with our AC, but the maintenance team was quick to take care of it and, just like the rest of the staff, they were incredibly friendly. The GM was also very welcoming and helpful, which made us feel right at home. Our room (412) was spacious, spotless, and very comfortable. The pool area was clean and well maintained, and the gentleman who oversees the beach and pool was wonderful—very knowledgeable and even shared great fishing tips with us. Overall, Surfside has an incredible team that truly cares about families having a great experience. This was our second time staying here, and it was just as special as the first. We can’t wait to come back next year!

Not the best place I've stayed

The front desk girl at checkout was a very friendly and helpful. But our bathroom door wouldn't shut. The staff at the Rooftop lounge was the rudest I've ever experienced, and was disappointed that there is a 10pm curfew for all outdoor areas. You can't even go sit by the lake quietly to relax after 10pm. Will probably try a different place next time we visit.

The water was extremely hot in the sink. The only way to use the cold water was to turn the sink on to barely a trickle. The pipes in the shower clanked like they were going to burst. At night you could see light coming into the room from all around to door from the outside. The stairs were the only option for access to the second floor and they were very slippery/slick/narrow. Not a terrible place. But figured it would be a tad better.

Room was what we asked for, very clean and well appointed. From the picture of the room balcony, we thought we were getting a lake view. Our view was the back of a building. Management told me we got what we paid for. The property offered many amenities, pool, private beach, water equipment, etc. but there were lots of stairs to access them. Mobility challenges made it difficult to use. The resort is very nice, very clean and comfortable.
