Our room needed swept badly. We moved the bed against the wall so our little one would not roll out. When doing so the potato chips, food, dirt, hair ties were all exposed from under the bed. I realize you don’t always move beds, but it needs swept under there occasionally as it was atrocious.

First stay here and it was enjoyable. The kids had plenty of things to do for a whole day. The Waterpark was nice and so was our room. The arcade was a good size and we enjoyed the breakfast buffet in the morning. Highly recommended for family fun.

This was our third time staying at the property with children 4 and 7. The check in has always been quick although they mentioned booking with expedia almost like a negative? Regardless they were are to get 3 rooms in the same area for our group travel which was much appreciated! Upon arrival, the shower had a hair in it and some trash stuck in the drain that I removed myself. The TV remote did not have working batteries. Much to my surprise, the old school alarm clock was apparently set and went off at 5:58 AM! Luckily, i was able to turn off before my kids woke up but I never fell back asleep. Other amenities were great per usual, my kids love the craft room! Famous Dave’s was a a bit over priced and the food quality was much less than the original Quaker Steak so that part was disappointing.

Our room smelled like dead fish. It looked like it was last updated in the 80s. Staff were very nice, but we won’t be coming back.

My kids loved this hotel so much! They enjoyed the waterpark, the friendly staff and characters, and especially the craft room for kids. They thought it was hands down better than Great Wild Lodge. It made our family trip to Cedar Point even better.

I will start with a positive…the family suite was big enough for 4 kids & 2 adults. Problem is the room was filthy. There isn’t carpeting in the room, but they defintely didn’t mop the floors. We actually had to go buy spray cleaner & disinfectant. We had to request an iron & ironing board since there wasn’t one in the room. The water park is REALLY small & they closed 3 of the 6 bigger slides, so my older grandkids got bored QUICK. It did not meet our expectations in the least.

I enjoyed the stay overall but the amenities are a bit pricey and should be included with the overall cost of the stay . Breakfast was overly priced when it should have been free with the hotel stay like many other hotels do . The cost of the arcade room was overly priced . I think the water park could have had a bit more for small children as I have a 2 and 5 year old and they couldn’t really do much but stay in the small toddler area. I wish I would have had a better room . They gave me the room right next to the arcade room which was noisy oftentimes at night when I was trying to get my little ones to sleep . Guests were a bit rude and not friendly once I checked out . They could train their staff at the front desk to be more friendly and inviting . I did enjoy the craft room . The girls loved it . I also enjoyed the characters that were really friendly and welcoming upon entrance into the hotel . I also enjoyed how everything was close to the hotel , like other restaurants and the Cedar Pointe beach . Made traveling really convenient .
