Loved this property and our stay was fantastic. This would have been a 5 star review except for the temperature of the water in the shower. It was lukewarm at best but the sink had hot water. For all 4 of us and a two night stay the water in the shower was never warm. When you go to their waterpark (which was top notch btw) you want to get clean afterwards but not in a cold shower! Loved the Bavarian Inn, just not the shower.

Was not very happy that when I was in the shower with my 2-year-old grandson the water cut off and did not work for about 5 minutes had to get out the shower and get back in after the water decided to start working. Meant to let the front desk know and did not due to time of getting back home for work today.

Like always a great place to go with family. So much to do and see, never enough time in a weekend trip. We were lucky enough to stay on the opening weekend of the new waterpark and it didn’t disappoint at all. We rented a cabana on the first day they were available and had unbelievable service from Karel! We met the owner, Michael, as he came around to the cabanas completely hands on asking what we thought of the new complex. Very unforgettable experience, the kids, 16, 13, 8, and 1 asked if we could come back every year. So definitely planning another trip soon!
