Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
This lodge is not different than the location in Wisconsin Dells that I visited years ago. The extremely high prices for rooms, miserable food for a very high price. We've notice people bringing food from outside resort. The resort double charge me for the room, we booked the reservation with expedia and paid with expedia, but the hotel decided that it's ok to be charged again. You have to pay for parking like over 15$/night. So if you get $200/night room it will cost over $600 after tax this tax that resort fees, reservation fees. It's disgusting. One short sentence, we will never return here ever, There are other reasons other than what I just mentioned, it will not be appropriate for me to discuss here.

We came here last year with our grandkids as a water park is always a hit. We knew everything was expensive and we expected just the basic stay to be high. Prepaying on Expedia months in advance, we went there thinking no more "must pay" fees. But when we came up to be checked in, we were told that there was a new $15 a night parking fee policy that just went into affect at the beginning of the month. They not only charged us once but tried to charge us a second $15 charge. Terrible business policy when your already paying several hundred dollars a night and the parking lots half full.
