Parking
It is fun and very enjoyable for the family! But I just don’t understand why they would charge you for parking in their parking lot ? You already pay an enormous amount to stay and high prices for everything in their hotel and I’m not complaining about that but then be charged to Park your car? Why where would they expect you to park ? Their a Hotel usually parking in their parking lot comes with renting a room !

Great family trip
I had two rooms for my family (adult kids and grandkids). There is something to do for everyone and the grandkids ranging in age from 6 to 16 all had fun. The rooms are clean and bed is comfy, the pull out sofa bed, not so much. Great family mini vaca.

Like its proximity to Traverse City. Food was low quality fried food. Kids had a blast- too crowded for me. Rooms are out dated- light to bathroom was so loud

Our family of 6 had a great stay! The rooms are set up so perfectly for families, separate toilet/shower, mirrors and sink outside of that. Our younger kids loved the bunks. The water park was great!

Staff was very friendly and accommodating. You have to pay to park even if youre staying at the hotel which i found odd, but it was $15 a day. Many food and activity options available in the hotel. They werent great at advertising though because i didnt even know there was a ropes course until we got home and i had to call them. Kids loved the kid room with 3 beds and everyone loved the water park of coarse. 4 out of 5 of us left pretty scraped up from the pool bottom. Overall great stay and we will be back.

Overall hotel is good. Although they charged me 2 times for parking and told me to go take it up with my bank. So customer service lacks a bit, I even sent them credit card statement as proof. Shows two separate tranasaction ID.
