Restorative festive escape My dear friend and I spent a Gals' Pal weekend at The Abbey and spa after Thanksgiving, the day of the big first snowstorm. The setting was magical! Decorations throughout were tasteful and festive; there were several winter-themed events that added to the holiday spirit. The Spa services and amenities were fantastic. Our spa treatments were so good we booked another prior to our Sunday departure. The beds and pillows were among the best I've experienced at a resort. Room service and dinner/wait staff at The Waterfront were top-notch. The resort has been well-maintained and the charm of this older resort only adds to its warm ambiance. Only wish the spa pool was warmer. But the large jacuzzi with jets and the multiple saunas were great to enjoy throughout the day as the snow fell for nearly 15 hours outside the huge floor to ceiling windows! Kudos to all the staff and management for making this resort a go-to place all year-round!

Do not recommend About an hour from Milwaukee and a little more from Chicago...So, pretty much rural. The hotel is somewhat clean. Staff varies. Front desk is hit and miss with some being really helpful and kind and others clearly not interested in helping. The beds are by far the worst beds I've ever had at a hotel...So much so that it disrupted my sleep. I was at this location twice in the last two months for a training and both rooms had horrible beds. The inside of the hotel is not consistently heated including one of the conference spaces we were assigned to. Water pressure was terrible. Worst of all was the food provided. Breakfast was the exact same liquid egg block and roasted potatoes. Lunches were also mediocre at best. When they served sandwiches and I'd ask for mayo, the woman said, "No" to which I had to respond, "Could you get some?" One time I got some, the other I never did. The acoustics suck for both the guest rooms and the meeting spaces. Drunk people from weddings and kids are often running up and down the halls but it usually doesn't go on for more than 30 minutes.

Resort Fee but no resort amenities This place is old and outdated. It needs to be remodeled. They also have the audacity to charge you a daily resort fee when they have NONE of the amenities of a resort. And they still charge you extra to use the adult pool in the spa. We will never stay here again.

An awesome experience with the best, most attentive staff! We stayed here for my Wife's Birthday. We've stayed at the Abbey a hundred times but this time the knocked it out of the park. I'd had a surprise present delivered to the desk. I figured I'd come down after checking in and pick it up. This had been in the works for weeks. We checked in and went to the room. They had put the present oun the couch with a bottle of champagne and a birthday card signed by the front desk staff. It was a great surprise for her and honestly, both of us. The Front desk person who put it all together was Faith. I immediately went down to the front desk to thank her and she just said "well we wanted to make it special!" I'd also asked ofr extra bedding, the wife has a weighted blanket at home, so we needed an extra comforter. It was ready and waiting for us in the room. We enjoyed breakfast every morning at 240 West. The food and staff were on point and greatly improved. The waterfront restaurant had had a flooding issue, so they had limited seating. We ordered take out a number of times during our stay and couldn't have been happier. The service and presentation was awesome. Like I said, we've stayed at the Abbey numerous times over the years and I really think this time might have been the best. The staff was super attentive, the property was meticulously cleaned, and everything could not have been better! Sooooo looking forward to our next visit!

One Night Get a Way for Two Amazing inexpensive couples getaway. We called for special rates when we booked. Only 45 minutes from Rockford. We loved the end room with extra tall ceilings. No need for Marina view. All the views are lovely with patio door with outdoor seating. We didn’t get the $40 spa package because the steam/sauna room were gender specific. We used the extra large hot tub ( two hot tubs together) in the FREE indoor pool to ourselves in the afternoon when there were not as many kids. ( only 4 older kids in pool). We enjoyed a 1 hr hike to Oak and Oar ( for a drink ) from Linn Pier. We usually hike from Fontana to Pier 290 for a drink also 1 hr.
