For Tiffanys Resort: My boyfriend and I stayed at Tiffany's resort this weekend for one night at Cabin 5. We found the place infectiously dirty to the level of health abd safety and the only positive was the lake view. The owbers keave at 5:30 pm and so when we came back at 8:00 there was no one to contact.
These cabin have obviously been constructed at a time lead paint was used the facility have tons of decaying wood peeling paint and obvious mold growing in and around the sink area. The caulking was little to nonexistent there was cracks in the concrete floor in the livibg room and bathroom, the floors were so dirty that we had to wear our shoes and there were light fixtures that did not work. The windows did not stay open and if they did they had, there were broken screens which duck taped to seal the screen. There was a serious gap in the door which allowed the outside wind and air to enter the cabin including bugs. When we looked up at the light at night there were tons of little green flies around the light. The beds were covered with old, motel like cover, which was not clean, and the bed was covered with cheap sheets, on an old mattress. I checked for bed bugs... did not see anything, but who know? The furniture was run down, bed side tables were missing handles. In the bathroom we found two soaps and no shampoo. The gas heater in the living room did not work, the couches were filthy, and all stained and dusty, God knows what was on them...
There is no doubt when the facilities were originally constructed, they were fantastic and something to build family memories. In the review book, people reference those magical times, but now these cabins pose a serious health hazard to those hoping to enjoy the lake. There's a serious concern of mold spores, being dirty, lack of sanitation due to COVID-19 protocols, the structures severely asked the question should they be condemned for health and safety purposes??
We understand staying in the rustic cabin, we also do not mind old, but we do not pay to stay in filthy and condemned places. We rented it as a choice instead of staying in a tent, as the nights are getting cold and we knew we were coming in late, but this type of facility looks like something that you would find abandoned with no maintenance being done for years. And all this for the price of $118.00 plus taxes per night, when the state park across the way charges $30 a night for a tent spot and the grounds there are spotless and maintained amazingly.
While the cabins are decaying slowly, the owner is building new house and their current home which is right on the property oozes woth the richness of a Beverly Hills like mansion with big expensive looking signs with warning of no soliciting or trespassing on their private property with fancy, "top shelf" sectional on their lake view porch.
At check out we provided the feedback about the cabins. The owners feelings of discomfort were only concerned that another potential client who was in the room at the same tim with me heard what I was describing They said they are sorry to me, and then, they excused themselves that the client had to hear me. They did not seem to see that this was a health and safety concern, especially in the world of COVID-19.
The owners responded by asking me why we didnt leave when it was so bad...or why didn't we say anthing. No one was available after 5:30 pm.
We won't be back!
