BRUTAL CABINS, EWW

Review of Penguin Resort
1.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed Aug 16, 2024
This place has and will always be a dump. It’s like a 1 star highway hotel on a beautiful hillside, don’t be fooled by the location. It’s gross. Cabins are run down, nothing works. Can’t believe anyone would rate this a 4 or even 5 star, it’s eww, plain eww.
Date of stay: August 2024
Room Tip: Avoid it until the entire place is burnt to the ground and rebuilt from scratch.

New owners doubled the rental cost with no new upgrades. They no longer supply firewood and charge a clean up fee. Not friendly and inviting like the previous owners. Would recommend searching around if your going to spend money on vacation you can get a better bang for your buck elsewhere like greenbay resort.

What a beautiful place to be at! Very cozy atmosphere in the new and renovated cabins. Close to the beach, beautiful sunset and water!!
Amazing walking path close by. Playground on side, my children had so much fun. Will go there every summer now. Fell in love with that place. New owners are amazing and very loving folks!

New owners and unfortunately not the same at all.
Customer service is non - exsistant.
You can not reach anyone if needed for cabin requirements. , no on-site services , wood not offered anymore. Office never open. Phone line does not work and email address is obsolete , web sites not accurate etc..etc..
With the increased prices decreased service and lack of any staff , unfortunately after 15 years of visiting this will be my last visit.

Irene was kind and helpful and we loved the stunning lake views from our comfortable relaxing cabin at the Penguin Resort (penguins not included 😆). Great place to stay. Kayaks available to enjoy, swimming too, and a very welcoming atmosphere 🙂

I and my wife stayed only one night, but had we had more time, we would have stayed longer. See picture of cottage. The cottage was beautiful with all amenities and appliances. Falcon Lake a few yards away offered beautiful views. Hosts Irene and Ken were extremely hospitable and welcoming.

Room tip: Bring mosquito repellant with you.
