We had a decent stay at this lodge-style hotel, which is more focused on families with its waterpark. The waterpark was fun for the kids, and our room was spacious, but one of the beds was uncomfortable. Although the dining options were good, the breakfast situation was a bit underwhelming. Overall, it's a reasonable choice for families looking for activities, but there are some aspects that could be improved.

I had a wonderful experience at the Arrowwood Lodge! The staff were incredibly friendly and went out of their way to help us during our stay. The water park was a highlight for my kids, while the dining options were decent. However, the darkness in our suite was a bit annoying and the lifeguards could have been more attentive. Overall, I would definitely recommend this place for family fun.

My family and I enjoyed our stay, primarily because of the fun indoor water park that the kids loved. However, we had some issues with room changes and found the dining service lacking, which put a damper on our experience. The hotel could use some updates for better lighting and more attention to detail regarding service.
