Clarion Pointe Jasper

8/10 Good

"Great King bed and friendly staff!"

Santas Lodge and Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Our girlfriend and I loved our stay. We aren’t going to be able to really have Christmas this year because of our baby being born so close so it was just what she needed. I also proposed on the property and she said yes!"

Sun Outdoors Lake Rudolph

10/10 Excellent

"The staff are friendly, helpful and accommodating. I took 4 teenage girls during a Halloween celebration weekend and they had a blast. Great family fun!"

Ramada by Wyndham Tell City

10/10 Excellent

"Upon arrival and check in, our first offered room smelled awful, the second was a bit better & the third worked great. It was obviously a known issue because the staff asked if it smelled moldy when I said it smelled bad. Our 2nd room had some lights and a the bathroom fan that didn’t work. The 3rd was well maintained and quite clean. The pool got the most attention, which was comical considering the small of some of the rooms. I gave them 5 stars because the staff, specifically Freddy, went above and beyond for us. I knew traveling to a small town on a budget wasn’t going to give us a great room, but Freddy checked on us and made sure we enjoyed our stay."
