"Unfortunately, we ran into a situation with a sick child and had to make a last-minute change of plans. We were well aware that this was inside of the typical timeframe where adjustments to our stay could be made, but the experience we had made us feel undervalued and ignored. There was a complete failure by the host to respond to any form of communication, including multiple phone calls/messages, texts and emails. What if we had been on site, dealing with an issue in our room/unit? The total...

Spillway Lodges

10/10 Excellent

"Spillway Lodges was a great midweek buy for us! We did one of the studio queen rooms and it looked just like the pictures on the website. Room was clean and ready for our 3 day stay in Bellaire MI. Room had a full kitchen with all necessities which was great for my wife and I as an alternative to eating out. There was a little grocery store right down the road that had all the food that we are used to eating at home. We took advantage of the provided entertainment areas on the property. Used the putting green daily, played bag toss, walked the old railroad bridge & trail that cuts through the property. We had 3 deer visit the back of our building minutes after checking in so we thought that was good sign for our mini vacation. Only drawback for us... there was no parking for a truck and trailer/boat combo. We were told the boat would have to be left a few blocks away in a community lot which was not something we wanted to do. Overall, very impressed at the midweek summer price we paid for the overall quality of this property. We will definitely go back at some point!"

"When the parking lot is full, there is a one way street next to the hotel which provides extra parking. There is also a house that has daily riddles on a dry erase board out front and my dog and I enjoyed them very much so. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Great cocktails and conversation at the bar. And I especially appreciated your assistance with my late night snacking(you know who you are) :) Love staying here with my doggo. Pet friendly with plenty of areas to walk."

The Lodge at Cedar River, Shanty Creek Resort

8/10 Good

"Facilities were as advertised and expected. Staff was friendly and helpful. We were put in a room facing the pool and asked if there was a room available across the hall facing the golf course. It was late when we checked in and unfortunately there were no rooms which were clean. However, the next morning, Cindy at the front desk had housekeeping clean a room for us right across the hall. Thank you for all your help, Cindy! The BIG negative of the room was the internet service, or lack of. Yes, you do have internet service. However, what is provided at no charge is so slow, it was basically useless. When trying to open emails, I thought I was back in the early days of AOL, using a modem. I eventually just gave up trying to read my emails and resorted to just using my phone to read any emails that required my attention. You could purchase faster internet for $8/day. However, I refused, out of principal, to pay an additional fee for "working" internet when internet service is advertised as being provided. Shanty Creek should be ashamed of themselves, and I will never stay at this unless this facility again unless the internet situation is resolved. I do not know what the internet situation is at the other Shanty Creek properties."

8/10 Good

"Enjoyed our stay. Loved the location. Right across the street is a view of the lake. The rooms need a deep clean. Above my head in the bed were cob webs and when entering the room you are meet with a must/mold smell. We stayed for three nights and we were only given 2-3 large towels. I also don’t like the fact that they trust the people who are renting the rooms to wash the dishes thoroughly. I really hope that they wash them again after check out. I know I wash my dishes good but I don’t trust other people. I would trust the hotel staff more."
