Few tweeks, be perfect

Everuthing was wonderful except for the lodge room ajoining room door. Thst door is paper thin and yiu can hear everything yiir neighbor does. We had our TV at 20 volume level and they complained it wa stoo loud I could here her on her phone and the entire conversation. Ask for a room with out an ajpining room door. You will thank me. Also wish they had a little more variety on the breakfast buffet. Maybe add some yogurt or oatmeal. It was Alot of carbs.

We have stayed here for years at cabins but got a handicapped accessible room in the Garden section A. There was a ramp and the room was accessible but there was no nearby HC parking. That is an easy fix to make one of the nearby parking spots HC.

The keys didn't work on the first attempt, so we had to drive back to front desk to get new ones. Once in the room, we noticed the shower curtain was missing. We had to drive back for the second time to the front desk to get shower curtains and hang them up ourselves. The floor was tiled and was wet, like it was damp mopped, but never dried. We reported, but weren't moved to a new room, despite open rooms available. The hotel appeared very runned down. Do not recommend

Upon arrival, I was very excited about this resort, it gave me Dirty Dancing vibes!! The general store had a great selection of souvenirs as well. At check in, the lady behind the desk was not very friendly or personable. We were simply checked in, shown where to go on a map that was all. No real greetings, conversation, smile or anything. We at onsite at the tavern, the staff and food were great. By the time we finished dinner, it was dark out and trying to find our room was a bit challenging. The signs on the property versus what was on the map were different. The parking for our room was conveniently located right at our door, but again, there was no lighting and it was VERY dark. When we walked into the room, our initial reaction was pleasant. However, as we were settling in, we began to realize there were quite a few issues. The room only had a few lamps, it appears that the whole theme there is to keep it as dark as possible (insert face palm emoji here). The dresser was pulled out away from the wall, the tv was not plugged in, the tv would not work once plugged in, front desk had no interest in correcting or even say they were sorry for the inconvenience...I was simply told, "i will let them know" and she hung up.There was zero water pressure in the shower and the sink drained very SLOWLY, oh and you guessed it, the lighting over the vanity area was HORRIBLE! We also informed the front desk of the sink draining slowly...she said, "ok" and that was all. No plugs either!
