She was not completely aware of the trails in the area, so do your own outdoor homework before you arrive if you plan to do outdoor activities. Concierge was only intermittently available and when she was, she seemed preoccupied & aloof even though no one else was waiting for her advice. Major quality difference between the locker room at the spa and the historic bathhouse. I wouldn’t expect them to put down sand or ice melt because people are walking around with bare feet & sandals, so just a buyer beware comment. We were here the week between Xmas & New Years so it was very crowded! Temps were very cold, well below zero, so paths to pools had many icy patches. They were also quick to provide the missing linens for the pull out. The front desk responded quickly to provide a skillet, but it was an old scratched Teflon skillet so of course it was unusable. The pull out couch was surprisingly comfortable. Ours was very minimally furnished, maybe because it was a pet room. The condo cabins are a second unit in a larger cabin. We stayed 2 nights in a ‘condo cabin’ because we brought our dog. How are the numbers looking then?!

Person after person kept coming and slamming into each other. Tip: Don’t fall for the extra $5 for the waterslide, there is no one monitoring who has what wristband.

So then another 30 minutes go by as we watched about 20 leave but where was the attendant?Īfter hours we got in. When she did come back, we had to wait for “4 people to leave”, hmmmm ok. Being respectful, we waited our hour and a half, you then have to wait in the line again, for another 30-45 minutes, waiting for the attendant to come back. Once on the wait the list, it is an hour and half to get in, if you are lucky. There is one person, coming every 20 minutes or so to check the line and see if you are on the waitlist, then disappears. You have to wait in line for 30-45 minutes to even get on the waitlist.

The shower pressure was also slow, but it was ok enough. They supplied us with more coffee, and we took that chance to tell them about it but nothing was done to rectify the problem, and by the next morning, we were staring at our own spit suspended in sink water for hours yet once again. The crew was nice enough to check in on us after the first night and see if there was anything we needed. If they do capitalize on that, they should expand the springs themselves because of overcrowding. They are apparently selling property now too. The hotel/room prices have nearly doubled in the last 5 years, yet, the place is much busier than before. I’ve always loved it -and still do- but I’ve seen it go downhill a bit. I’ve been coming here regularly for many years. ![]()
