We were served 2 small rolls that were either stale or frozen - I love fresh rolls, theses were not, almost had to choke them down. Ordered breaded mushrooms that were machine made and so hard you could not put a fork in them. If you managed, they broke open to reveal perhaps a piece of mushroom stem, and a lot of air inside. I had the beef tips over rice which was only warm due to the hot gravy they doused everything in. No choice on rare/medium/well on the tips - which makes sense if they were packaged. Prices on web site are lower than menu. Caesar salad barely qualified (+$2 premium over garden salad) - just lettuce, dressing, and a bit of grated cheese. Waitress was pushy both before ordering and during the meal (halfway through she offered us the desert menu and after we declined informed us she would get the check - while we were still eating!). Overall very disappointed. Wife and I sighed and paid our $75 bill + a basic tip. Doubt we will ever go back.

We were very disappointed in our RV trip to Honey Creek State Park. (Not to be confused with Honey…read moreCreek Resort.) We planned to stay for 2 nights in our RV over Labor Day weekend thinking we would walk trails along the lake and doing some biking. We made reservations for South Campground Loop #101 on reserveamerica.com. There is very little information about the state park online including any trail maps or maps of the state park. When we arrived at the park entrance, there is a tired looking office and a simple sign pointing to campground, cabins, and shelters. We stopped to get a map of trails and the park but only found old flyers. So we followed the signs to the campground. The pay station was in disrepair - again, no maps, no information about where to find the host/hostess, no signs to say where the north and south loops were, no signs to say where the potable water hydrants were, or even where the dumping station was. We asked other campers who pointed us in the right direction. If you like a little privacy and a clean, fairly level site, then don't motorhome here. RV were packed in like sardines in a can on a busy holiday weekend. The non-electric tent sites were more spacious and had a view of the lake at the far north end. Our picnic table was unusable with peeling paint and warped wood. The men's shower had no hot water, and the women's has a toilet that was overflowing. No firewood for purchase either. After walking the south and north campgrounds on Sunday morning, we located 2 host/hostess sites but weren't able to find anyone to help with maps about trails. We were able to ride our bikes on the cement roads with narrow bike lanes but not along any trails. This park is really set up for boating all day and partying late into the night. We did find the dump station. It was located across from the north host/hostess site next to the basketball hoop.

Woke up to a gorgeous morning with the birds singing, small rabbits hopping around, etc. One of my kids wandered a little far for my liking while he took photos. Some locals said you really had to watch out for the ability to sink down and get stuck in the mud, so they helped look for him when he didn't come back to the campsite on-time. Turns out he was fine -- just lost track of time having fun exploring. :)

Great place to boat. Nice big lake, had it pretty much all to ourselves when we were there…read more Beautiful. Don't expect a lot of action, such as at Lake of the Ozarks. This is a quiet lake with no business or houses on it. There is a campground that looks nice. We drove through but didn't camp, so can't rate that part. Would like to take our boat back again sometime!

Worst service we have had anywhere!! Totally ignored when we first walked in, finally got set down…read more Then had to ask another waitress to take our order, she claimed she didn't see us but she had time to take the money off of a table right beside us?! Wanted a second drink and had to ask another waiter for that drink because our waitress disappeared again!! Another lady there aimlessly ran around and did nothing beside talk to cook in the kitchen. This is no way to run a business!! Customers should come first!! Probably will never go back and would highly recommend no one going there!! Sad because I don't want any business to fail but get your priorities straight!!

What I enjoy most is the opportunity to make photographs and videos of the wonderful wildlife found so abundantly there from Canadian Geese and woodpeckers, to fox and deer. Not to mention the frolicking squirrels. The park is well maintained, run and appreciated by all. A little sanctuary from a busy, bustling life, in the stillness, tranquility and wonderful, warmth of mother nature's embrace. Many thanks to all involved in making it possible and keeping it going. It's a priceless treasure I think we all take for granted when we should be thanking our lucky stars each and every day.

A pleasant park by the lake! This Waterworks park is named…read morefor the fact that the low end of the lake is the Fairfield Waterworks, where they're pumping the water and filtering it and probably adding fluoride and such, and pumping it to your homes. So don't go peeing in the lake, okay?! They have public restrooms set up by the side of the lake so you don't have to do that. The restrooms look like concrete bunkers, filled with crude graffiti. There's swimming in the lake, with a cordoned off area with buoys and a beach volleyball net and some picnic areas. There's some trails that go around the lake. Waterworks Park has ample parking and good signage to let you know where to park and where to go. It's a nice green park with lots of grass and trees for shade. There's plenty to see and do around here. It seems like it'd be fun to ride horses around here!
