“This motel is very budget-friendly. The owners were welcoming, and the older lady at the front desk was incredibly sweet and polite. We booked three rooms, and all of them were clean and well-maintained. Overall, it was a pleasant experience. I would consider staying here again if I visit this town in the future.”

“amazing time, unfortunately it was too windy for any fishing, but we still had an amazing time, we also were in a great spot with quick access to bathrooms and the beach, and public water.

Toilets: the women's restroom was very clean, the showers were nice too, my boyfriend says the mens restrooms were alot cleaner than expected, overall great experience

Dog-friendliness: Very nice for walking your dogs, but unfortunately dogs aren't allowed on the beach, but the rest of the camp is large enough to tour with your pups.”

“I live on the road as a digital nomad, so my hotel experience is frequent. Very nice room. Clean, well decorated, convenient additons to the kitchen space, and comfortable couch. The hot water was limited and fluctuated , so showering wasn't the most enjoyable experience. Fresh and inviting lobby with a homey and comfortable gathering space that travelers took adventage of for visiting and playing games. Nice bar selections as well. The absolute best part of the stay, however, was the staff. Shawn is unparalleled in his customer service. Warm, friendly, and welcoming. We felt like we had arrived at friend or relative's house, not a hotel. He carries himself with the utmost professionalism, well-dressed, and clearly takes great pride in his position. And Rudra is such a friendly bartender. He was chatty and kind but not overly so that it was intrusive. He was careful in his preparations of our cocktails and checked in that they were to our liking. Both such lovely humans. What a wonderful experience with people who take pride in their work. Thank you, gentlemen, for a delightful stay.”

“I give 10 stars for service. We went for naval graduation. The girl at the front desk was beyond helpful the whole time. I’m pretty sure her name was Jamie. She got us set up with a shuttle so we could get to and from base cheaply and FAST. Anything we asked, she was knowledgeable and quick to answer. She is literally an all star and made our trip sooo enjoyable and amazing. I’ve never had service like this before. Also, a huge shoutout to George. He was amazing fixing the hot tub for us when the warmer went to sleep and bringing us supplies when requested. Literally 50/10!”

“We stayed in town for an open water swim meet that was held in Present Prairie. This location was very convenient for us. The kids really enjoyed the pool. The bar has activities planned nightly. The beds were comfortable. The breakfast had a good selection of items. We would stay again if we were traveling through the area.”

“Review of Great Wolf Lodge

We recently spent a weekend at Great Wolf Lodge with our family of five (kids aged 9, 6, and 2), and overall, it was a fantastic experience!

Pros:
• Water Park Fun: Our kids absolutely loved the large lazy river, the kid-friendly slides on Fort Mackenzie, and the wave pool. Although we didn’t try the bigger slides, they looked exciting, and the lines were surprisingly short.
• Perfect Timing: The water park did get busy in the afternoons, which is to be expected on a Saturday, but it was much quieter and more enjoyable when it first opened in the morning.
• Kid-Friendly Features: The fenced-in kiddie area was a great touch, offering peace of mind for parents. The warm water and comfortable air temperature made the experience even better. Plus, the lazy river and kiddie pool had handicap-accessible features like railings.
• Other Activities: The high ropes course and climbing wall were a fun change of pace from the water park.
• Clean and Renovated: The hotel was clean, modern, and felt more open compared to other Great Wolf Lodge locations we’ve visited.

Cons:
• The kiddie splash pad water was freezing, making it less enjoyable for our little one. And there wasn’t a ‘hot tub’ pool or adult hot tub to warm up in.
• The room lighting was very dim; more overhead lights would have made a big difference.
• The bathroom lacked a fan, leading to a humid environment after showers.
• The arcade was fun but overpriced.

Overall, Great Wolf Lodge provided a wonderful family getaway with plenty of activities to keep our kids entertained. While there were a few downsides, the positives far outweighed them. We’d happily return for another visit!”

“Don't stay here unless... you want to be close to shopping, whether it's for something in the mall or a nearby chain store. If your hungry, don't drive far. Breakfast is served daily. Most restaurants are nearby within minutes for lunch and dinner. If you plan to go to a graduation for the naval academy/ out for fun at a theme park which is near by. Staff throughout the hotel was helpful. Came late due to a delayed flight but had someone there to let us check in. Gave us a good idea for places to go whether it be food or entertainment. Had fun at the indoor pool which was open until 10pm. I was able to attend my function at the navy base for graduation. Although families were present, I couldn't tell from my room. It was peaceful. Overall this is the place I'm booking if I ever have to return to Gurnee, Illinois.Rooms: Clean, spacious, comfortable with easy to control ambient.Nearby activities: Indoor pool. Six flags great america is the nearest theme park. Along with great wolf lodge.Walkability: Mall is just across the parking lot. Enough said.Food & drinks: Breakfast served daily. More than 5 places to choose lunch or dinner from all within minutes from location”

Food and drinks: N/a”

“If you are looking for an extended stay hotel, Extended Stay America - Gurnee, should be at the top of your list. The rooms are clean, and spacious with every amenity to make you feel at home. But, what really makes this hotel special, is the staff and management. Brian always got me the best deals, whether it was the daily, weekly or monthly rate. Lavarius and Lupe are always there to help, and provide you this anything you might need to make your stay more at home.Marcos”

“The location is great. The pool and hot tub area was nice and breakfast was included. Parking is free and in a parking lot. The staff was friendly.Room 230 - We had a 2 queen room with a pull out sofa. The sofa had a tear, M&M's by it/under it and some loose change on the seats. We draped a sheet on it to use for seating. The beds had hairs and stains on them. Pulling back the covers revealed more hairs of all sorts. Different lengths, colors, pets, etc. and crumbs?The shower doesn't drain well so it has standing water and makes a high pitch whistling sound after a few minutes. The bathroom door locks from the inside but you can open it from the outside. The sink drain is broken so it's just halfway jammed in there and drains very slowly. The bathroom wall has dirt splashes on it and there are holes in the shower curtain.There are outlet covers that are very loose and one outlet has something broke off in it. This is by the TV and desk area. It appears to be a ground from something.The closet needs some screws tightened, the hinges are loose so it doesn't close when it's opened. The air conditioner/heating unit makes a loud noise almost like a flag flapping in the wind. For some reason, it happened more around 4 am and 6-7 am for very long periods of time.Everything else was fine. Breakfast changes slightly daily. Lobby is clean.This is not an expensive hotel but people expect things to be in clean, working order. We figure things out as we go but I will always leave an honest review. This was everything about our first impression and the list of things that should be fixed to make a great first impression for Room 230. (Telling you about it at the time gives you the chance to change it to make a second impression. Things should be in clean, working order upon arrival and there were many things looked over in this room) Everything else was good and hopefully the other rooms are much better! :)”

“The place smelled great, very clean and nice size room. Breakfast however required us to go next door, bathroom for the hotel was out of order but overall a nice place to stay for the night. Definitely recommend if your just need a place to stay for the night if going to Genesee Theater or Great America.”

“We stayed at Hampton Inn gurnee for 9nights....the staff always said good morning,good night, asked if we needed anything daily, and helped us out with our couch/sofa bed which you could feel the springs....gave us extra blankets to make it more comfortable, and checked on us few times to see how blankets were working out..a complimentary breakfast every day. Jocelyn at front desk was very helpful the entire time we were there, and Ms Washington, who we saw during the evening times was such a delight. The hotel is old, but your staff would keep me coming back...thank you againRooms: Rooms were comfortable but the couch pull out beds need replacing”

“Highly recommend this place. Most helpful staff and management. Plus, they're hot. Not that anyone asked but everyone that works here is attractive which helps. Happy National Hispanic Heritage Month to everyone that works there that this applies to. The Housekeeping Staff are one of the best parts of this location. Love them. All of them. They deserve awards for what they have to put up with to be Frank. The cleanliness has more to do with some of the people that stay there, not the Housekeepers. Ants are attracted by food, just saying. Being short staffed and overstimulated has nothing to to with the location, but all to do with the economy. XOXO”

“Stayed here for the Ren Faire. Place is good for what it is. If you stay bring a pillow. Theirs aren't great. AC is great. Bed is average. Bath in room was nice and water is warm. Cable works. It's a great room for the price. Hallways smells like smoke and the hallways are a little sketch. For the price it's safe and clean. No bugs. Stayed for 3 days.”
