    ONLY small issues: in both rooms we booked, the shower could be cleaned up and fixed. Slow drain and one shower couldn't activate the shower head, only the lower spout.

    Love the location, the aesthetics of the lodge, and the setting within the state park. The disk golf course and amenities are enjoyable all year round.

    My bathtub was very old and I was not able to take a bath because the faucet wouldn't work.

    Meals and wine were good and very generous. Weather was poor but obviously not controllable.

    The fact i got it for the 4th and paid all that money to check in at 4 check out on the 5th. No fireworks till we check out. I paid 500 dollars for nothing. I paid for pretty much a day. Not cool. Didn't see anything. Even the people next to me was saying the same thing. Rip off.

    The fixtures in our room were dated to the point of crumbling. We couldn’t get into the on-site restaurant for love or money, but the take out pizza from the bar was a decent alternative.

    The location was ideal for our last night as a family before Miami University move-in. The property has a unique Native American decor and the lake and trails are gorgeous. My sons played shuffleboard and we all enjoyed the outdoor and indoor pools.

    We enjoyed the pools but each were in rather poor condition, for different reasons. The outdoor pool deck is in bad shape with cracked concrete and broken patch jobs leaving large pebbles that hurt underfoot. The indoor pool is poorly lit at night which is not good for families with children. You can barely see the deep end of the pool. The rooms were good but the showers/baths were among the worst I’ve seen in any accommodation over $50/night. We had two rooms (214 and 215) and each had ancient valves with loose knobs and shower heads. The caulking around the tub was slathered all over and the grout around the tiles was dirty. But, hey, granite countertops! 214 had a noisy AC that kept cycling and waking us up, so they moved us to a less desirable room across the hall. To make up for it, their excellent maintenance man, Matt, gave us a gift of s’mores at the fire tables. He really went out of his way to help and apologized for the state of the rooms. Hueston Woods needs a whole maintenance staff of people like Matt.

    The location is convenient for a couple metropolitan areas; Dayton and Cincinnati. The restaurant served great tasting food, as did the bar. The staff were excellent and helpful and they really did a great job to make sure we were satisfied. We didn’t do much beyond swimming. The property is well kept given its age - and all that dark wood is back in style again!

    The food and the service we did not get one refill and had to ask for the rest of our food.

    We had breakfast at the lodge on our first day it was very expensive for what we got. Some of it was uneatable and some we didn't get until we had finished our food and was given a to go box. Did not eat their again. 4 people $55

    It was really run down. The photos do not show that it’s in really worn condition. The shower and sinks didn’t drain properly so it just felt dirty to me The mattresses and pillows need to be replaced.

    The bed frame was for queen size bed but was adjusted for full size bed which was a to small for sleeping 2 people. The folding bed was so worn out. Staying in diagonal instead flat. . I pay unfortunate sum money and get good sleep

    My room was dusty, some cobwebs. I wish the prices of the rooms and cabins were lower. WiFi was slow when I was trying to work.

    What I loved about the property is it’s location deep in the woods. Great for privacy and some quiet time. And the best place to see stars. I loved having coffee on the balcony in the mornings!! Book reading there was a delight as well, there were birds playing on the wind right outside my room. I like that there are so many options to try if you’re feeling adventurous. You can rent a kayak or canoe at the marina or look at the rehabilitated animals. On my next visit I want to try shuffleboard in back of the lodge or disc golf (is there a name for it?? Lol) in front of the lodge. Hiking trails and a fishing dock are close by for some time killers too. Me and my grandchildren got to experience the nice outside pool this year along with the inside pool. Plenty of room for us swimmers. If you have sports on your mind there’s also a tennis court and basketball court. We didn’t have time during our stay, maybe next time. The beds are super comfy too. We have stayed at the lodge, in the cabins, and the campground and we always have fun. Definitely our family spot. 🙏🏻🦋

    Listing Houston woods is wrong and misleading. They make you think your booking a cabin, but it's for a hotel room at the lodge. For $150 plus a night you do get a nice room, and access to pools, but that is it. Would be nice for 24hr free coffee, and maybe longer hrs on some of the other services.

    Good food at restaurant, The bar was awesome. They serve pizza which you can pick up but it closes at 9 at night. The pools where ok we did swim and the lodge itself is beautiful.
