The only poor thing was both the bathroom door and bedroom door had a hole punched in. The pool was nice and the cabin was super clean and inviting. I will stay here again.

Cabin was cute and clean, with comfortable beds and a full kitchen. The basketball "court" needed repair, pool was a weird green, never found the volleyball court... property could have used some attention overall. Front desk lady was pleasant and checked us in quickly.

Tough weekend

Rather frustrating stay. Apparently an issue with WiFi made it inaccessible for our room and cell signal out there objectively horrible. Hard to keep walking up to office just to text family and friends. Toilet not seated well and rocked vigorously when seated. Shower head splayed like your thumb on a garden hose, only <6ft up, and had to go full heat to get a tepid shower. Staff were lovely however.

I did not stay here, because when I arrived at 11:30PM, the gate to the lodge was closed, everything was dark, and I could not get a hold of anyone by phone. I had to book another nearby hotel for the night.

simple, quiet, affordable

Thunderbird Resort is a family run operation. It is reasonably priced with no frills, but exceptionally clean and quiet. Full kitchen with utensils, but no condiments or coffee. An on-site convenience store, kayak rentals (it is on an inlet of Lake Buchanan). Everything closes down at 4pm however. Signage for entrance road off hwy 2431 could be better.

No concept of customer service

Though the sheets were clean and the room appeared to be renovated the room had an old, musty smell. My wife’s asthma flared up within a couple of hours of being in the room. She couldn’t stay in the room at all and slept in the car that night. When we decided to leave the next day, one night early (paid in advance for two nights), resort staff would not return any of our money from the second night (we would have been glad to receive 50% back) and told my wife it wasn’t possible her asthma flared up because of something related to the room. We stayed somewhere else the next night and she was fine so it was most definitely the room. I wouldn’t stay there again.

Wij hadden een uniek oud huis met twee slaapkamers en een keuken met vastwasser. Heel mooi en knus. Er is een mooi zwembad en we werden heel hartelijk ontvangen. Het zwembad is ook fijn. Van het meer was weinig te zien vanuit het huisje.
