Spiders and mold
We walked into a cabin that had spiders all over and a tub that had mold. We cleaned it the best we could and bought bug spray. We decided to clean it on our own since we heard when we were checking in the staffing was low. We had family staying in the lodge and did not want to ruin their stay because of our issues. We ended up leaving a day early since the spiders re-appeared. Discussed this with the front desk upon checking out. They gave me the general managers card to try to get a one day refund. I texted him, no response. I called him a few days later and he had every excuse of why the cabins were in that condition.

Won't be back
We were not informed at reservation time that an Oktoberfest was scheduled at the resort the same time we were there. We were not warned the pool would be closed during the day. Vendors blocked access to check in. Patio door in unit was not clean. Coffee Maker in unit didn't work with coffee supplies. We had to go out for coffee and then purchase correct supplies. We could have had similar accomodations at a Country Inn for half the price.
