Lee, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Pleasant stay

We visited frim out of state for the first time. We stayed in the lodge. You can tell they are older buildings but kept very clean. Our room was very roomy and comfortable. It would be nice to have a little mini fridge to keep cold drinks or left overs from the restaurant but otherwise it was a good stay.

Will book again!

Booked a 2 night stay/fishing adventure. Had drinks at the lounge the first night and our bartender was top notch. He kept an eye out and was right there ready to refill as needed. Had the breakfast buffet before leaving the next morning and it was good.
DELSIE, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The lodge was quiet and not very many people lodging here. Room was dusty but clean otherwise
Helen, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

At first glance, this park is outstanding, but first impressions are deceiving. Staff was very friendly and helpful, room was clean except for the balcony. The view of the lake is excellent, but.......we encountered loud people outside our door until way past 11pm, the motion sensor light in the bath turned itself off when my wife was taking a shower, the cook for the dinner meal quit before the meal, shutting down the meal and restaurant,..but maybe you will get lucky if you stay .
John, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Stayed 1 night. Staff at check in was super friendly and even let us switch our room when we discovered ours involved stairs. Staff at check out was equally nice, although we did have to wait a bit as they were very busy. We ate dinner at the restaurant and although the menu was small the food was great. Service was good there as well, they let us move to a table by the window. Free breakfast had plenty to choose from, and once again customer service went above and beyond because they made plain oatmeal and decaf coffee special for me due to my dietary restrictions. State Park had very nice beach and marina, would love to visit during the summer. Views from the restaurant and our hotel room were beautiful, loved the balcony. On the down side we were afraid to sit on the chairs because they were old, kind of rusty metal and we thought they may break with our weight. Bathroom ceiling was cracked/peeling. Lamps and walls could have used a cleaning. Air/Heat unit was noisy at times. No fridge/microwave. But overall it was a very nice experience and great value for the price. Highly recommend.

Beautiful view of lake and love the balconies. Pool should be open later than 7 pm in summer.
Rhonda, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

It is due for update. Pool was great. Karen in the Lodge dining was EXCELLENT!!! Food was very good. All the folks we encountered who worked at Barren were delightful. The bar was not open- due to lack of help. Our room was clean, a bit musty & needs an update. But, we understand it on the calendar.

Check in was easy, room was clean and comfortable, and the balcony was delightful. We were there right before peak season so nothing was open (restaurants, pool, etc) but the facility itself was nice.

Great overnight stay

Spent one night while traveling from North Carolina to Missouri. Room was very clean and comfortable. Decor was a little dated. Had breakfast in the restaurant. Food was very good and some of the best prices we have seen recently. Service was over the top.
