    We spent serval days there in our RV and coaxed my Parents into coming to stay in their hotel for a…read moreone night get away . The staff and owners treated us like family in fact invited us to attend their family reunion that was taking place the next evening. We were treated to a bonfire, fireworks and a wonderful Mexican fiesta! The food was crazy good! The pool was crystal clear and so clean , the 35 acres was impeccable and the site they parked us at has sunsets to die for! Well done!! Hiking,free mini putt,horse shoes,shuffle board ,full size indoor gym with tones to do even if it rains!

    We arrived on a Sunday and there had been a wedding the night before. Pulled into our RV spot and…read morewere told to be careful when attaching to the septic as it had overflowed the night before. There was evidence of this around the septic tubes and we had to pull our dogs away from these every time we walked them. Even though the septic overflowed on Saturday, they did not have anyone come to pump it out and on a later day in the week they hosted a high school prom, thus overtaxing the septic again. (Yes, there was a school prom the end of June due to bad winter in the area, the kids are still in school.) We wound up leaving a day early as we were just sick of it. My husband emptied our tank into the septic and said the waste was within 1 inch of the top of the pipe, meaning 1 flush and likely it would overflow yet again. The pool was closed the entire time we were there but 2 girls that had a key to the pool (I'm guessing employees or family) were allowed to swim. The bathhouse near the pool was also closed our entire stay. The restaurant they claim to have was closed. The mini golf course appeared abandoned. No gym, no fitness area, no pool tables, nothing. Only amenity was a small playground and 1 basketball court with broken baskets. Nice view of the lake but you mostly have to stand at the fence to see it as the weeds on the other side of the fence are really high. The only other bath house always had a wet and sticky floor and there were plenty of spiders and wasps in there with you. Also the rv sites are barely wider than your rv with the canopy out. They lied to my husband and told him that the local car rental place drops cars off there "all the time". We had to pay $50 to uber to pick up, and another $50 to drop off, the car. They said they "never" go that far. There are no amenities in the nearby area either. It definitely looks like their main goal is weddings and events. Someone came to park in the spot next to us and were having trouble figuring out where to park and the owner came over, yelled at my husband for hooking into the wrong water and septic hookups (nothing marked & he used the closest) and then tried to get the guy to back in directly next to us and he would have been so close he could barely get his door open. Extremely disappointed in this campground as it was the first trip we took our granddaughter on and there was nothing for her to do.

Our…read moreplace was right on the water and we felt like we were further away than less than an hour from Buffalo. The golf cart was fun to get around quickly and the other perks like the live music was a fun on a Saturday evening. The 80's band was very good and entertaining! Dan & I also played mini golf and strolled along the beach to take in the beautiful sunset. We brought our yoga mats to relax taking a class beachside. Food trucks were also parked by the tennis courts which made dinner or lunch a breeze. We talk about this experience often and can't wait to return!! Also cute shops such as "The Pie Guy" and brewery is near by! Great spring or summer get away option from Buffalo!

We never knew we need authorized to park at public washroom! Moreover, it's a resort and all vehicles went through security gate before entering into the resort. Isn't that Authorized ?! When we questioned about the infraction ticket, the receptionist brought our concern to head of security and she came back saying the head of security - Rob McDonald reduced the amount to $25. We asked why at first place we received the fined because we did not park at the owners driveway or roadside parking. There has no sign stating "Unauthorized vehicle will be fined" Or "No Parking" Or "Maximum 20 mins for parking" Or even "No overnight parking" whatsoever. We were told Rob had left. We told the receptionist we want to speak to him in person to get a clear picture what exactly we did wrong. We were told to come back next day. We went back to office 4 times in total during our 4 nights stay and Rob McDonald refused to see us as well as give us a valid explanation what exactly "Unauthorized Parking" means that he was charging us for. The unjustified reason given is not up to normal standard. On our last talked to another receptionist, she said we cannot park if there is sign saying "No Parking" or "Cart Only". We went back to the public washroom and took a video wanted to show Rob that there has no such sign(s) at all. Again, Rob is busy and the receptionist gave us his email address asking us to email him to schedule a time to meet to discuss our concern. We sent him email the same day around noon time and we have not heard from Rob McDonald even after we checkout two days later. The management is absolutely disrespectful and unprofessional like many other customers experienced. You cannot charge customers on something you cannot justify! To us, it shows they are so desperate to charge anything out of vacationers! We are new to the resort. In the welcome booklet, it says "Re-Book and get 20% off". We were excited and thinking of booking again (by extending few more days) until this incident happened. Until today (over a month), no email from Rob telling us what does it meant by "Unauthorized Parking" at the public washroom parking. Upon searching on the web, we realized we are not the first one who have been charged for parking at public area. We saw the management replies stating "We do not permit parking on the beach (for environmental care) or along the road (to avoid traffic congestion). Guests should park only in the marked lots."... What exactly does it mean? We did not see any "Marked lots" stating for CAR only ... we did see "RV Parking" and "Cart Only" ... It's reasonable to think the rest of the "parkings slots" are meant for CARS ... Right? If you do not permit to park on beach public parkings or roadside, why even put on parking slots divider / lines? It seems like another lame excuses. If you do not want people to park at public washroom or public area, you need to put up a sign. But again, its absurd people need to get permit to park at public washroom! We parked the car at the public washroom at around 11:40 ish am and the ticket was issued at 12:18pm!!! We are still waiting for Rob McDonald response. How exactly should vacationers knows where to park and where not to park when there has no clear sign(s) at public parking area? To Management, if you need, we do have video showing there has no sign or warning about parking at the washroom area.

After three wineries, my husband was definitely ready for some food. When you walk in, you definitely feel like you're entering an English pub! The bar, and place,ent of the bar was very traditional to pubs in the UK. Our server Lawerence definitely helped with his English accent! When asked where he was from, he said Bristol! He came to Canada after her sister relocated. He originally was a cook, but given his accent, they asked hi. To move to the front! Well done. He was a great server too! Very friendly! We decided to share the sausage rolls and shepherds pie. My husband had two Guinness! I'm not sure where he put it in top of the wine, but glad I was driving. The sausage rolls were very tasty. The mustard that came for dipping was the perfect accompaniment. The shepherd's pie had a dark Guinness gravy that was rich and flavorful. I enjoyed the side of peas and carrots too! Sharing these two was the perfect amount, however we wished we'd got the poutine! It looked amazing, it would've been too much food though. Guess we will need to return! PS: loved seeing the sign for Upper Canada Brewing company! In 1988, I visited them with my college partner as we did a college paper on microbrewers! At that time, they were one of a few. We also had visited Great Lakes brewing in CLE! The microbrewing industry exploded shortly there after! Was a great personal walk down memory lane for my college days!! While Upper Canada was sold, was just excellent to see an old sign!
