I read a review on another network about the Bayview, they happened to have a two bedroom unit (#1)…read moreavailable so we gave it a try. The outside and inside is older decor. Panelling, old carpet, older looking furniture, but very cozy. Our unit had two bedrooms, a tiny kitchenette area, a living room and dining room area that kind of blended together. The AC worked great and there was a cable Tv in the living room. It's got a cabin feel to it, but again, was very nice. What really made the place great was it's sitting right on the lake shore. Our unit was a short walk across the parking lot to the beach area. There was shuffle board, a fire pit, a playground and plenty of beach area and chairs available. There was even a couple wood swings and a cornhole game set up. The owners were super friendly. Each unit has a charcoal grill that we used. The room had dishes and silverware. A coffee maker but no filters. The beds were cozy, and the place was really quiet. Our unit was right near the main road and we didn't even hear the traffic. I would definitely stay here again, we wished we could of stayed a few days longer after only staying one day. The price was right too, I think our off season rate (after Labor Day) was only $75 a night.

Looking to book a stay for a weekend getaway or business trip? Look further because this is one of…read morethe worst places we've ever stayed. We had our wedding here and they were extremely rude and hateful towards us and our wedding guest. They were also giving out our room number to be jerks without verifying they were with the wedding party. We paid $400 to use their arch that they did not decorate. I had to get help with it. The event coordinator Christina, walked past us and didn't acknowledge us after we checked in. It was very rude. As a coordinator, you should check in with your guest once they are settled. I had to go track her down because we needed to go over a few details for the beach wedding. She claimed she wasn't ignoring us but that's a bold face lie. She still did not speak or acknowledge my now husband the entire weekend. She said nothing else to me after I tracked her down the day we arrived. She said she doesn't like bothering guest but that's BS. She was all over taking care of other guest even when she wasn't needed. She kept no communication with us. She also sent someone to tell us my service dog wasn't allowed there when they knew. I had to show the service dog license. We went to the onsite bar after the wedding and the only word she said to my fiancé was "what do you want to drink?" No congratulations, no is there anything else I can do for you. Nothing! We met some awesome ladies there the day we arrived and the following day, they asked the front desk if they could leave a package for us and asked if they knew where we were. They were instantly rude to them as well. Apparently they have issues with LGBTQ people because we witnessed a completely different attitude when they handled other guest. It was extremely upsetting and they made our Wedding Eve terrible! It was so bad it caused a lot of emotions because the treatment was so bad. No one felt welcomed. The bartenders were the only nice people at the resort. Very nice bartenders. PS. They're nice until the day of knowing you get no refund when it's the day of the event.

We had a great view of the lake, and we were actually able to check in early. One thing that was kind of a bummer was the check in time.

The so called hotel $20 credit that you can spend in the outside lakeside deck is a waste of time. While sitting in the area with my daughter the bartender who was the only server out there at the time said sorry you can't get a Arnold palmer I don't have iced tea out here. Mind you inside was 10 steps away and two waitresses since came out to work the area where there were only 2 other guests. Meanwhile a maintenance employee came out to hang a bar sign and used swearing language . We left and went to the inside restaurant where there was no to seat us and again 2 people eating . We went downtown to eat as the inside was not clean. The room we were told at reservation would have a couch for seating it did not it had a chair and table. No Kleenex When I called the front desk at 11pm to ask if they had vending machines or bottled water at the desk I was told I'd have to go the the gas station!! Construction began outside the room at 6:30 am. I asked at checkout to speak with the manager. I was told he was on his way in and would call me. I recalled back one week later and still no return call . He never did call me! Overpriced and sub par very poor attention to any details. Next time I'd rent a waterfront cabin.
