My experience at the resort was quite disappointing overall. While some aspects showed potential, like the occasional friendly service, the amenities promised did not deliver, and the food was underwhelming. The location was misleading, and it felt more like being isolated than enjoying a resort atmosphere. I can't recommend this place based on my stay.

Erie Island Resort is a charming family getaway, featuring spacious cottages and inviting pools that my kids loved. However, the customer service left much to be desired, and the rooms could use some modern updates. The overall atmosphere is great for families, but improvements in service and room amenities would enhance the experience greatly.

My stay at the Erie Island Resort and Marina was a mixed bag. While the proximity to Cedar Point and the water activities were a definite plus, the overall experience was marred by significant issues including inconsistent hot water and lackluster customer service. It felt like a missed opportunity given the resort's potential. I left feeling frustrated and would think twice before returning.

My experience at the resort was quite mixed. While the room was spacious and had basic amenities, it definitely needed some cosmetic attention and wasn't quite in the best condition. The service left a lot to be desired, and although the pools were enjoyable when they were open, the dining facilities were lacking. For the price, it had potential, but overall it felt more like a place that needed serious improvements.

The breakfast options were limited to toast and cereal, leaving much to be desired for a more substantial start to the day. Finding a nearby diner recommended by a staff member ended up being a better choice.

I really wanted to enjoy my stay at the Erie Islands Resort, as the grounds looked like a hidden paradise, but unfortunately, I faced several disappointing issues. While the facilities such as the indoor and outdoor pools were enjoyable and kept the kids engaged, the cottage we stayed in struggled with basic amenities like consistent hot water, which really impacted our experience. The price felt high compared to the inconsistent service we encountered, especially when we needed assistance after hours.
