The staff seemed indifferent to requests and concerns. In general the accommodations need upgrading and rethinking its services including food and entertainment and the location needs to consider how the staff engages with the customers.

Would not recommend staying at Legendary Waters hotel. 3 main reasons, we were never notified that pool and hot tub area were down for service / maintenance. The staff could never figure out how to refill the "2 coffee pods and creamers", (we talked w/the two gals), over 4 nights! We tried the on site restaurant for breakfast once. Food was horrible, my wife's oatmeal was uneatable, even after sending back. Needless to say, all meals and drinks were in town. Look somewhere else...

We arrived at check-in time and had to wait about 15 or 20 minutes until we could get in our room. The TV remote did not work properly. Very difficult to change the channel. Bathroom lighting was terrible, very dark, hard to see in the mirror for shaving. The pool and hot tub not working and shut down. The location was very good for us. That was the best.

The view of the lake was nice, we enjoyed breakfast sitting out on the deck so we could see the lake. In our room the floor area by toilet was wet- not sure if the toilet is leaking or what was causing that. The pool and hot tub was out of service, not sure what was wrong with that but did not see any work being done. We got there at 2:00, we knew the check in time is 3:00, when asked if we could possibly check in early, we were told we could not, because a large group had just left earlier and the housekeeping staff was still trying to get the rooms cleaned and we probably could not even check in at 3:00. We left and did our in town plans, then came back and checked in. The hotel staff were very nice.

Receptionist was horrible. Insulted basically everyone who comes in the place. Told us she didnt care for any tourists. Well it was our first ever visit. Thats us i guess. I The property is on the red cliff reservation, which is not revealed. It states Bayfield. Its not. We left the very next day. I am a disabled veteran of 34 yrs. I will never use expedia or stay at a native American property again. I will not abide with any disrespect or insults by someone who treats me or my minority wife with such distain. Immediately. Expedia sucks and so do the staff at your property.

The property and room is very outdated. The bed was hard and very worn down. The air conditioner was extremely loud when it would turn on and we were unable to use it overnight. There are no food options after 8pm and the casino is very run down with old machines and half of them didn’t work. The price for one night is outrageous for this property

The hotel and rooms were clean and the staff were pleasant. Like so many places, they were very short-staffed. The restaurant was not open, only a snack bar, which was good. The pool was not open, waiting on a part. The grounds were just okay but would look so much better with some weeds removed and trimming around the dock and decks.

The hotel/resort is in a perfect location and right by the water. The room we picked had a view of the lake with many windows. The casino is a plus if you like to test your luck and the dining area had good options (portions) for breakfast (did not try dinner). The hotel is 10 minutes away from the marina in Bayfield and I highly recommend the boat tour to the Apostle Islands.
