What my family and I really liked about this property is all the different lake activities to choose from. We rented a boat and it was a great experience for the kids. We love pickleball, super excited to have it on the property, the down fall is that the courts are packed all morning and afternoon from people that don’t stay at the resort so you are limited on being able to get your own court. Also for the price I expected the rooms to be a lot more upgraded. The lighting was not great at all and the carpet was pretty dirty. They are also low on house cleaning, my family and I stayed four nights and our room was only cleaned once. Also didn’t like that they charge extra to rent bikes when the property is not that big. Overall it was a great time but definitely would only stay two nights max if I would return.

this property is uniquely nestled into a strip mall. It is extremely outdated and ‘resort facilities’ are either closed or very basic. The pools might remind one of a fancy motel six - very depressing. The pictures on the brochure are very misleading. I was extremely disappointed and would not recommend. The use of the term ‘resort’ in not appropriate.

Beautiful hotel! I didn't realize there was lake in San Marcos but we really enjoyed our view/stay. We came down from NorCal for the CSUSM orientation and ate at the local restaurant which was DELISH. Would absolutely stay here again!

The resort grounds and staff are terrific. Food's great. Patio view and seats are pleasant. My room smelled a bit like urine (my Mom's room smelled a bit musty). I could hear normal conversation in the next room.
