Disgusting
The indoor water park was absolutely disgusting. There was hair and dirt all over the ground. The water in the pools was so cloudy, you couldn’t see the bottom. The whole place needs to be power washed and bleached.

Stayed here for a family Christmas party for one night. Water park for the kids was wonderful. We requested that all 4 rooms be close together (all separate reservations, too) and that was accommodated by the professional hotel staff. Location directly on Houghton Lake was beautiful, even in the winter. Hotel was clean and nicely decorated for Christmas. Bathroom linens were plush and abundant. The king bed was firm and had high quality linens on it. Breakfast hours and selection could be improved with offering some kind of protein such as eggs and sausages. The carb-laden breakfast was not healthy and the hours of 6 to 9:30 am was too early for us. We had a great time overall and would definitely come back here.

The only thing that was bad was their pool and hot tub did not work. That was one of the main reasons we stayed there. We did not get a discount on the stay either. Over all, i love this hotel. It was my 3rd time staying there.
