Having a failing back and NO WORKING ELEVATOR (and no 1st floor rooms available) made it impossible for me to stay! Would have appreciated some notice from either Expedia or the Resort would have allowed me to make alternative acceptable arrangements!

I was disappointed because neither key would work in the door. When I called the front desk, they stated I had to come back to the desk to straighten it out. Second, I was booked for a water view room. Had a giant tree in front of the window. No view….

Resort - Not

Arrived in Tawas around 1:00 pm. Couldn't check in until 3 pm unless you wanted to pay $20 for early check in. No, we don't. Bar didn't open until 4. So, we went downtown for lunch and came back at 2:30. My niece paid the $20 but they said ours still wasn't clean. At 2:50 we finally got the room. They lost our lunch, bar and future business. There was a bug on the chair in the morning and the lobby was cold.
