Our stay at Rapid River Lodge was amazing. Very clean hotel and waterpark was perfect for the kiddos. Only thing lacking was breakfast… if you’re looking for a hot meal in the morning, not much to select from.

We really enjoyed our stay. The kids love the waterpark only thing I can say I was really disappointed in was the breakfast. I understand it’s geared towards kids, but it wasn’t great.

Breakfast was good and staff helpful. The poor mark was the cleanliness of the room. There was a hairband and what looked like a piece of balloon on the floor by the nightstand. Made me question how well the room was cleaned.
