We picked this property because of the waterpark...there were many google reviews with water slides, what they dont tell you is those water park slides no longer work. We got to the hotel at 1:08am. Checkes in, when we got to our room the smell of musty old carpet is what we encountered but we had been up all day and just wanted to go to bed. The next day we got up went to eat, the staff took our dirty towels, we asked for an air freshner for the room he either didn't understand or just disnt care because he never came back. Later that afternoon we went to what they call a water park and seen green water in the lazy river... and next to the lazy river a almost drained section where the slides would have dropped into..not blockes or taped off!!! Very unsafe!!!! My 13 year old tried to go to the little waterpark area but one slide was blocked off there as well and no water running down the slides.... you also have to sign a waiver basically saying of you get hurt you can't sue the hotel even though they have unsafe areas wide open. Talkes to the manager on Saturday morning and she basically told us since we booked through expedia all she could so was cancel our stay for that night...now mind you its already the weekend hotels were booked all around us and we had plans to go to the island and bought our tickets already. So no we werent having the manager cancel our reservation to go try to find another hotel for the night. There's a limit on words so i can't finish my review.

Worst hotel room I’ve ever been in and we are frequent travelers for many years. Your website rated with 7.8 stars - totally false. Room was dirty - dust on all the surfaces. Furnishings were very old and outdated - lampshades were all faded and discolored. Discovered in morning a spider walking on outside of lampshade by beds and found a large spider web inside the shade. Subsequently found webs in the other lampshades. Door handles loose, lock on sliding glass door loose. The shower head was all rusty and corroded metal where water was coming out. The rug was dark and looked like it had never been cleaned. I couldn’t sleep all night thinking about how dirty the room was.
We selected this room while on the road that same day because our reservation at another hotel was canceled due to a lack of electricity. We relied on your rating and it was false. Will never use Expedia again.

Hands out one of my worst experiences I have had as far as a hotel stay anywhere. The waterpark inside was absolutely disgusting. The lazy river and half of the waterpark was shut down with green looking water and condemned looking. I signed up for pay when I arrive service through Expedia and they charged my card prior to arrival the day before. Would never stay here again. I’d highly recommend people look elsewhere because they have a completely filthy hotel and their waterpark is not functionable!!!

The hotel itself is nice and the staff were great! The waterpark was not very clean though
They stop the breakfast,
The water park, have been canceled the slides. Only the dirty lazy river and one swimming pool.
No room service.
Almost all the hotels in that area are degrading; more money and less quality
Stayed here 1 night with my mither in law. Her room was not cleaned when we arrived. There was a dirty diaper still in the trash can and a half empty beer can in her balcony. He had no full size towels in our room.

First 3 nights were in your average room. Extended a night last minute and was put in a newer room with beach view! Staff members were friendly and helpful. The beach area was nice and well kept.
The hotel has lots of potential. The lobby has a moldy smell to it. The room that we were in had certain things that were falling off or apart. Beautiful view of Lake Huron, but the screens were broken, so I couldn’t leave it open to listen to the waves at night. It’s supposed to be non smoking, but people still do and it seeps through the walls. If they clean better and update a few things this would be an amazing stay.
The beach access was nice but rooms dirty, several broken things, had to change rooms because of such poor housekeeping. Water Park was only half functioning, pools were green and cloudy.
The pictures were not current. They must have beenfromwhenthe hotel first opened. The pool area was unkept, most of it was broken and our hotel room had wet floors and mold on the bathroom walls.
