Warning: The pictures on the website are outdated and do not reflect actual. The room had a broken bathroom sink, had structural and water damage that resulted in a musky/mildew smell, and was very cold and uninviting upon arrival. The resort failed to put the heat on before arrival on a cold end of winter night.

Hotel's Favorite
We absolutely loved this hotel. The outside and the grounds of the hotel are beautiful and impeccably maintained. We loved having drinks outside by the fire at night. The lobby and restaurants were also very pretty. We went to the spa and I had the best massage I’ve had in my entire life. The spa also seemed newly renovated. We sat at the pool and used the whirlpool, it was awesome. Our room looked newly renovated and very nice!! I was surprised as the last time we were there, the rooms were not renovated. Our bed was comfortable and the room was clean. Overall just a very nice experience. It was also nice to be so close to a couple of bars and walk along the lake at night. Looking over the harbor was cool. You couldn’t beat the location.

Had a lovely time with a clean and calm atmosphere. Will definitely be back. Carlos the bartender was super fun! Ask for the PB&J martini! We missed the camp fire tonight but will catch it another time.

Not impressed. I kept hearing from everyone that this was the place to go but I'm not sure if I'll ever be back. First off, the room I booked in November was unavailable to be due to an over booking on Expedia. This is what the front desk person told me. So even though I booked direct for a king, I got a double queen. Luckily no price difference but still, I booked direct months in advance. Then my husband went to use the bathroom and the toilet was left uncleaned with feces on it. I ended up working everything else down with Clorox wipes that I keep in my car because if the cleaning staff can't even clean the toilet properly what else did they miss. I did go to the front desk regarding the toilet though because I wasn't going to clean that. When I first approached the front desk asking about the cleaning crew I was told they were busy but once I showed him the pictures he was quicker to get it done. I was also told I would be contacted by a manager named Jen and here we are almost a month later and nothing. I also wrote them a direct review/complaint and nothing. The restaurant/bar was okay but the server didn't know beers on tap or how to add our resort coupon. It was also sad to see tables leave when they were done and sit dirty. Almost every taketable was left dirty when we left at 9pm. Spent a good amount of money here and did not feel like it was worth it. Maybe in the summer it is nicer? Who knows, still unsure if we will return. Also still waiting for Jen or any manager for the master to get back to me.

We arrived a little early and were able to check in for an additional $25 . The room was very cold and took hours to warm up. The shower had mold around the shower door. (see photo) The hair dryer speeds kept switching from high to low on its own. Took forever to dry my long hair. We won't be back.

This place is certainly dated. Unfortunately with warmer temps we couldn't enjoy ice skating which was one of the desired activities.... no concessions were given. The pool area was gross! Hair balls everywhere, on the ground, in the pool, on chairs.... never saw anyone clean at all. Sadly this was all we could really do based on nothing else being open. The hot tub was COLD, and full of a concerning amount of mysterious foam. Generally there were children filling it up, I guess they enjoyed the cold water and foam. Bathrooms were in horrible shape, how many times can one be caulked? Rusty, nasty all around. Breakfast place had a buffet, nothing had any flavor. Gravy was pure flour. Dinner the kids had mac and cheese, we had a few wraps which were super dry, no sauce at all and couldn't find our server to bring anything. Should have stayed home.

Overall our family had a nice time at the Abbey. However, this resort missed the mark for me. The Good: kids had fun at the indoor pool. They had a magic show (extra cost) that our kids had a lot of fun at. We also enjoyed bundling up for the outdoor movie and s’mores. We enjoyed breakfast at 240 West. The Bad: the food at the Waterfront restaurant was horrible. It’s such a shame because it’s a beautiful venue. The ribs were so dried out and nasty my husband chipped his tooth. Gross. The indoor pool was VERY crowded and not very clean. Cloudy water and chlorine smell so bad. There are only a few arcade games in the arcade, the rest are “claw machine” type games.

It was a nice place to relax, quiet. Enjoyed the restaurant and gift shop. Very comfortable bed and room. The spa is pricey, but at least there is one available. Plenty of movies available in the immersion theater, plus board games and an indoor pool and hot tub, and a kiddie pool and an arcade. Good location in a cute little town.

We paid in advance for our stay, only to find 2 more charges for the same night on our credit card. They refunded one night to the wrong credit card, and I sent our invoices to five different employees over several months. They failed to respond to the final request with balancing out their charges to our records, sticking me with double the restaurant bill. Really poor resolution skills!

The visit was disappointing. We arrived and looked at checking in to leave our bags and go shopping. We were informed that you can’t check in until 4:00 anything earlier costs $25.00. They said they had rooms available. I have stayed here for more than 30 years and this is how they treat people. I called the management and got nowhere. Done with The Abbey.
