While the surrounding area is great, this resort property was very out of date with a lot of deferred maintenance. Cleanliness was less than ideal. The food at breakfast wasn't very good. I don't recommend this property nor would I come back. One positive: the front desk staff was friendly and helpful.

Getting in and out of this place with a trailer is nearly impossible. The roads are tight and not much room to maneuver. Of course this is expected when right on the lake of the Ozarks however for a large of a complex this is parking is rather blah for a truck and trailer. For starters the place is rather dated. They were doing some renovations to the bathrooms on the main lobby area so seems like they are trying to keep it up but overall seems like an 80s resort.

Disappointing and mever again!

This hotel stay was extremely disappointing, especially considering the price of nearly $500 for two nights. The initial room was unacceptable, with dirty hallways and banisters, mirrors leaning against the walls, faded and scuffed trim, water-damaged floorboards, and a stained bathtub. Being moved to a "lesser value" room that was also dirty, smelly, and only partially cleaned is completely unacceptable. It sounds like the property is relying solely on the Margaritaville name without maintaining the expected quality. This review strongly advises against staying at this hotel, as it seems to be a poorly maintained property masquerading as a premium brand. Would not lwt me upload pictures!

It has a lot of opportunity but a lot of room to improve. Took 27 minutes from the time I got in line until my check-in was completed. They did not have enough help for a busy Saturday afternoon checking people in. Also,when sitting at either of the the bars that we went to, no one seemed to be able to change a channel on the TVs without calling a manager. This just shouldn’t be that hard.

I liked there were things the kids could do. The AC in both rooms we rented didn’t work so it was very hot. The restaurants were very expensive and I have had better eggs at McDonald’s and that’s saying a lot. We were the only people in the JB’s Boathouse restaurant and we order appetizers took almost an hour to get them.
