Liked my pet-friendly lodge room. All staff were very, very friendly. The view from the lodge is amazing. Nice, quiet location for a quick getaway. Only thing not up to expectations was the quality of the restaurant food. The buffet was inexcusably poor.
Dewey Lake is so pretty. The drive around it has multiple places to pull over and enjoy the view. This was a business trip, but being in nature is refreshing for my soul! It was a long day, but having the dining room available, and the suite with the extra living space made it nice to work on a project with a colleague in a very pleasant environment.
The dining and front check in staff were super friendly and helpful.
Will definitely stay again.
If youre staying be sure to ask for a room with a refrigerator and microwave if you need them, as not all rooms have them.
Room was very clean with a peaceful patio which we enjoyed.
Ice machine not available but you can get ice at the bar or at the restaurant.
The only thing that we wish was in our room was a microwave and a mini fridge because after getting the very good sized meals for price we had leftovers that we wanted to save and no place to store them or warm them up on our own
Wonderful location on the lake surrounded by a forest full of singing birds!

Terrific trip!
We really enjoyed our stay at May Lodge. The scenery was beautiful and all staff members were kind and courteous. The only thing we would request is that the bathrooms should be updated.
Room was not what I requested
Ask for wheel chair accessible room with two double beds
Turned out they had none
Elevator to the dinning level had been out for days
No one mentioned this when I confirmed the room twice before the day of arrival. Menus were inaccurate and confusing pricing was not spelled out.Hot water went out for the whole resort on the second night could not shower for 40 hours and was still off when we went home smelly and was given no time it would come back on
Great staff , hospitality was wonderful , made us feel welcome and the check in process was easy . It’s nestled inside a beautiful state park , surrounded by nature and water , peaceful , friendly
The first night of our stay was great - very quiet and restful. We liked the rustic feel of the room and balcony overlooking the lake. That changed, however, on the 2nd night. About 1:00AM we were awakened by loud noises, loud conversations, and yelling. This went on for about 2 hours. There were no directions in our room for contacting anyone from management after hours. We spoke with a gentleman at the desk on Saturday and were told that there was a fraternity taking up several rooms. He indicated that they had problems with them getting up on the roof and other issues similar to ours on Friday night. When we returned to our room on Saturday night the noise next door had already started at about 9PM. We decided to leave that night, knowing that we would not get much sleep if we stayed. The desk clerk did credit us for that night, and we left for home which was almost a 6 hour drive. You have a beautiful property - it was a shame that it was spoiled by college students who should be old enough to know how to conduct themselves when staying in hotels.
The property itself is very good, considering that it is in a State Park. Don't expect brand new city hotel cleanliness or newness. But it is in the middle of a beautiful nature area. The restaurant staff need better training to be better hosts. They seem to take their own sweet time to even acknowledge guests coming into the restaurant.
Nice, clean rooms. The beds were very comfortable. Loved the balcony where we could sit out and enjoy the birds. Very quiet and peaceful. I highly recommend staying here.
