Horrible experience and atrocious customer service…read more On 05/31/26, I received a phone call from this resort offering what was described as a special promotion. I was told, verbatim, that they were "rolling out the red carpet" for me, my wife, and our three young children to attend a presentation in exchange for a complimentary stay. We scheduled our overnight stay for 06/06/26, with the presentation set for 8:00 AM on 06/07/26. We drove six hours each way specifically for this promotion. Upon arrival, we were informed that amenities we had been promised, including access to the water park, were not included. We were then told that the tours had been overbooked and that our presentation would need to be rescheduled to later the following day--well after our checkout time--which simply would not work for our family. The staff, particularly the managers, were some of the rudest and most unprofessional employees I have ever encountered. Rather than attempting to resolve the situation, we were repeatedly told to call various phone numbers ourselves. No one showed any genuine concern or willingness to help. I was so shocked by the lack of professionalism that I recorded my interaction with Assistant Manager Joanne, who refused to involve another manager and repeatedly instructed me to call different numbers the next day to address the issues. When those numbers were called, no one answered except for one employee who informed us that we had reached the wrong department. The entire experience was a disaster, and we hadn't even made it out of the lobby. Another employee continued asking whether we still wanted to stay. After explaining that we no longer wished to remain given everything that had happened--but that they already had our deposit--she abruptly canceled our reservation and walked away, stating that she was done speaking with us. As a result, we packed up our family and drove another six hours back home. We wasted an entire weekend, spent countless hours traveling with three young children, and were treated with complete indifference and disrespect. I would strongly caution others against booking based on promotional offers from this establishment, as our experience was nothing short of unacceptable.

I was sort of properly dressed, but I forgot my gloves and I forgot my boots. I was gonna pop in to see if I can buy some gloves, but I noticed they also had boots. I know winter boots can be expensive. That's a given, but the gloves.. HOLY SMOKES!!! some of the gloves were $70 just for swishy sounding mittens and gloves. I ended up getting a pair. I think they were like 40 bucks but they were on sale. It was hard to find my size because UNFORTUNATELY my dad gave me his big old prizefighting mitts, but I found a pair of mittens just like I wanted. But I understand the high price it's all about demand. This place is conveniently located for people like myself who can't stay organized and remember the things that they need to take on trips.

My sheets had dirt or sand on them. The "crafts" for kids, is crayons and a coloring page each time. Everything is so expensive here, that it reminds me of Vegas hotels. A single candy bar was 8.00. The buffet was actually pretty good but the restaurants are awful. Every attraction is designed so it is cost prohibitive unless you spend a ton on unlimited passes. I paid 24.00 to pay one fast round if laser tag with my 2 kids and myself. I called to ask for trash pickup and towels and ai said someone would be up "immediately." An hour later and no one came. I searched the internet for the front desk number (there is no lodge info at all in the rooms) and got voicemail so I left a message. Still waiting to see if they're going to come. Parking is somehow 20.00 a day. We have a handicap placard and there were very, very few handicap spots, we never got one and ended up having to park on the opposite end of the lodge every time, with an Autisic kiddo at risk elopement. The noise. Yes, it's for families. Kids are loud. But, who are these purely that are letting their kids run up and down the hall screaming every night. It's not just the kids, the adults are busy yelling at the kids to slow down. I've gotten so little sleep because it's so loud all the time. I will not be back. It cost my family of 6 far less to rent a 6 bed 4 bath oceanfront house in NC. Oh, and something I saw mentioned a lot- one of our adjoining rooms wasn't ready when we arrived. We arrived at about 4:15 and check in was at 4. It wasn't ready until 5. Not a huge deal for us if everything else had been cool, but it's just another thing in the list I saw mentioned a lot. It gets 2 stars instead of 1 because 1. The staff that I encountered was nice. 2. It's nice to find a place big enough for all of us. 3. The kids like the water park- it's a good size, but not big enough to justify the price.

The first time was just a day pass in the afternoon which is a great deal if you don't want to stay the night. And most recently we stayed the night and had a great time! We booked the kid cabin suite which can accommodate up to 7 people but I think realistically and comfortably, it would be 5. It comes with balcony access, a pull out sofa bed, a queen size bed, a bunk bed, a full size bed and one bathroom. The room is fairly spacious but could use either a bigger table and or an addition half bath at least to accommodate up to 7 people. This was great for us as we had 4 adults and one toddler. There are quite a few attractions here besides the water park. They have a pretty extensive arcade, glow in the dark putt, bowling, story time for kids, ropes course, laser tag and multiple restaurants! Obviously their main attraction is their huge indoor water park! They have things for babies to adults to try here! But I would say their main water attractions are geared more for small babies to middle schoolers. There are multiple water slides for all ages and there's a HUGE bucket of water that dumps about 1,000 gallons of water every 5 mins! Pretty cool! We added on the breakfast buffet for which I would highly recommend. This isn't your typical hotel breakfast! Their offerings were pretty vast and even included a MTO omelette station! If you want to entertain your kiddos, look no further than great wolf lodge for all your entertainment needs!

Yes, we have read the mixed reviews…read more Our experience: A visit to Williamsburg following an Interval International search will reveal eight very nice properties (http://www.intervalworld.com/web/cs?a=1502&areaCode=232.) All properties are cited as "premium" or "select" properties. It may be difficult to make a selection that is less than congenial for your visit. Williamsburg like Orlando seems to have overdeveloped the timeshare market, and the odds of an exchange are excellent. We enjoy the sweltering Southern summers at the beach with an air-conditioned condo, but June, July, August, and September may not be the best months to enjoy the historical museum of Williamsburg. King's Creek Plantation is located one mile from I-64, and is very easy to locate. King's Creek Plantation is a development of modern "colonial homes" with all the comforts of the 21st century. King's Creek Plantation has taken care to replicate the smaller homes of Colonial Williamsburg with fire places, several porches, in-unit washers and dryers. Using OnStar GPS, all Williamsburg attractions are minutes away. The reception area is in extreme need of professional training. Check-in is efficient; however, the girls seem to be trained NOT to answer questions. Our check-in girl professed total ignorance of the WI-FI system and was "Hell-bent" on dismissing us to the "sales counter." The sales girls are equally unhelpful, and pushed a set of materials, and replied the materials held all of our answers. The purpose of the sales counter was to schedule a 9:30AM Sunday Tour, which has been set by "Sharon," the telemarketer. Sharon refused to return our call the previous day. In addition, a second sales girl was screeching instructions to a second set of guests, and her screeching is very annoying. We were told there were few available time slots, "and these slots" were rapidly filing. The experience is a huge turn off, and while saying NO, we were nagged to accept a sales presentation. Note to King's Creek Plantation: Knock off this annoying behavior. We own 12 weeks of timeshare, and trading into Williamsburg is very easy. Our holiday time is much to valuable to include a "sales pitch!" We own five Marriott weeks, and are fans of Westin and Hyatt. King's Creek Plantation offers very similar quality to all three of these properties, and King's Creek Plantation cottages are extremely pleasant. Actually, a professional decorator given a minimum budget might work wonders with this property. King's Creek Plantation cottages may be larger than the Marriott, Westin and Hyatt properties. King's Creek Plantation cottages are nicely decorated, and insist of a three-bedroom cottage. The three-bedroom cottage offers two decks, and a front porch. In addition the lockoff unit really is a nicely equipped condo with a full kitchen and independent A/C. The lockoff also has a built in washer and dryer as does the master condo. Once one survives the "crudeness" of the check-in experience, expect to enjoy a first rate Williamsburg Holiday. We recommend highly the King's Creek Plantation cottages. We have often visited during the Christmas season, and find the Colonial exterior and interior home decorations to be inspirational. We have adopted several of these colonial decorations for our own home. The December temperature is around 50 degrees and sometimes reaches 60 degrees. The Internet provides several sites for Williamsburg, and the site to visit is http://www.history.org/. The town of Williamsburg provides several period dressed docents, but will not often have as many period docents as featured on this website. Remember, Williamsburg is not another trip to the "mouse." I remind readers of this because several docents repeat the question from unprepared tourists, "where are the rides?" While the development of Williamsburg is due to an endowment from John D. Rockefeller Jr. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colonial_Williamsburg#Dr._Goodwin_and_the_Rockefellers) and others, operating expenses are dependent upon ticket sales.

READ THIS BEFORE you think of buying a timeshare at King's Creek. In 2018 I purchased a one week…read moretimeshare for a 4 bedroom unit at the Estates at King's Creek. I loved it, but in 2021 when I attended the owners update meeting King's Creek encourages all owners to attend when they are vacationing at their time share, I somehow let a salesperson talk me into trading my 4 bedroom Estates for a 4 bedroom unit in the Townes, and paying an extra $10K to do so. My adult daughter came along to the meeting with the expressed purpose of making sure I didn't spend any more money on upgrading my timeshare (I had started in 2009 with a 2 bedroom Townes for $10K, then traded up to a 3 bedroom Cottage for another $10K in 2013 before spending an additional $10K to get the 4 bedroom Estates). The salesperson's name was Jeff K. and he convinced my daughter that "Your dad is so close to owning perfection if he just spends $10K more to get the 4 bedroom Townes, and unlimited $400/week vacations at resorts all over the world". Jeff was a very persuasive salesperson, and managed to talk my daughter into telling me it would be a good idea to spend the additional $10K. What a disaster that turned out to be, as everything Jeff told us was a total lie. I found that out when I went on the Kings Creek site to find a $400 week somewhere on the East Coast (didn't have them money to fly somewhere). Turns out that to get access to the domestic resorts, I had to pay another $3K!!! On top of that, the 4 bedroom unit in the Townes, (which is basically a collection of two story town houses with shared walls), has walls that are paper-thin, and neighbors who are often very inconsiderate. You hear EVERYTHING from your neighbors! When I complained to King's Creek that Jeff had lied to me, they told me they have since fired Jeff, but they would only help me if I spent another $10K to move back to the Cottages, which are stand alone units, (and therefore quiet). But as mentioned above, I had already spent $20K to supposedly upgrade from the Cottages in my two moves since 2013! Now they want another $10K to go backwards $20K!! Total joke. Based on my experience, King's Creek and their parent company, Spinnaker Resorts are incredibly dishonest and greedy. Financially, this has been the worst decision of my life.

We've been…read moretimeshare owners here at Woodstone for 25 years, and we decided to utilize our home unit rather than trading through RCI this year. This review is specifically about our check-in experience as well as the unit we stayed in. I will review our other activities at the resort separately. Check-in. There have been HUGE improvements to the check-in processes since our last visit in 2023. There are now SELF check-in kiosks. You respond to the necessary identification prompts and, when finished, a staff member comes over with an information packet and room keys. You still need to go to another desk to pick up your parking pass, where you are encouraged to attend an "owners update", AKA a timeshare presentation. Although we had promised each other that we would resist any and all encouragement to attend an update, we were quickly persuaded when we heard that the incentive would be a generous $300 in Massanutten's Mad Money (to be used on-site for activities, restaurants, or shops) or a $150 Visa card to be used anywhere. *Pet-peeve: Massanutten charged a "resort fee" of $74.90 for our 7-night stay in a 2-bedroom unit, which is on top of the maintenance fees that we already pay annually. Not sure of what this is for as most activities also have individual fees associated with them. Unit: we were assigned Woodstone unit Y9, which we absolutely loved. It's a two-bedroom downstairs unit in a townhouse that sleeps 6 (with a pull-out couch in the living room). It's an end unit that has an outside porch with small table and chairs overlooking the pond. We were entertained daily by the geese on the pond, as well as an occasional family of deer passing by our unit. Massanutten Mountain is a 10-15 minute drive up the mountain, and there are fabulous views of the mountains and the rolling green hills of the golf course. The unit itself was seemingly recently updated and clean, and had most of what we needed. It had a full kitchen, with full-sized refrigerator/freezer, stove/oven combo, microwave, dishes, cups, pots/pans, plastic storage containers, etc. Importantly, there was sufficient shelf space to fit our groceries! There were also starter packs of coffee/tea, and dishwashing and laundry detergents. *Hint. If you're going to be doing any cutting, you might want to bring a large, sharp knife. While the unit had knives, I had difficulty cutting a butternut squash because the largest knife was dull. Also, bring along your own cups if your preference is for LARGE cups of coffee or tea. The dining area is adjacent to the kitchen, and had a table that seats six. Placemats are provided. The living room was comfortable, with sofas, side tables, and a bureau. A television is above the gas fireplace (which we couldn't get to work. Perhaps it wasn't turned on yet for the season). The master bedroom had a huge king-sized bed with a comfortable mattress, dresser, side tables, work-table, large closet, and television. Our only complaint was that the pillows weren't comfortable as they were soft and lumpy. The master bath had a large whirlpool bath with six jets; dual sinks; a toilet with closed door; towels and wash cloths; hair dryer: and a packet of toiletries. The second bedroom had two twin beds, and an adjacent small bathroom (including shower). The unit also had an ironing board and iron. The thermostat allowed you to regulate the temperature in your own unit; extra blankets were in the closet. The entrance foyer is shared with the upstairs unit, and has a shared laundry unit with washer and dryer (free). The upstairs unit (stairs only; no elevator) was occupied for only two nights, and we could hear their child running back and forth but the sounds were quite muffled and didn't disturb us. Nights were quiet. There was a short wooden walkway leading from the (free) parking area directly outside of our unit. We noticed that one of the wooden slats was broken, but forgot to report it. However, a day later, we were impressed to find that the slat had been replaced. This unit is close to the park area with playground, shuffleboard and corn hole games, and tennis/pickleball courts.

We came…read morehere to check in/check out as well as use various amenities like the pool, hot tub, sauna, and gym. I didn't have a chance to visit the other rec center but from talking to employees, it sounds like this one is better for kids because the pool is designed for play, not lap swimming, is warmer (88 degrees!), and most of it is shallow enough for kids to stand. There's also locker rooms for changing/storing stuff, and they do provide towels when you go to the pool area. If you're doing a timeshare presentation (and not an owner already), this is also where you will come to do your timeshare presentation. And it's just across the parking lot from a small convenience store if you want to pick up a few items like milk so it really is a central gathering place.
