The Grand Tappattoo Resort, Ascend Hotel Collection

The rooms were quite nice recently renovated however, the rest of the hotel seems worn out. We at the restaurant at the hotel service was good, but took too long for our food. I think they’re understaffed at this time of year.

Had a wonderful stay here, this was our second June visit to this beautiful place. Quiet and staff is so friendly and helpful. Love the beach fire pits and they supply wood for you. Love the buffet breakfast! Our rooms were clean and spacious. Couldn't ask for more we just wanted some relaxation. This was perfect!! Thank you!!

Great stay away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Lake views from cabin and dining area are spectacular.

While the resort is...nice, management has to do something with the restaurant end of the business. I came to stay for 2 nights with 15 other friends for a golf excursion. We all met the first morning and paid for the breakfast buffet. Our other 2 mornings had breakfast included. Our first night, we decided to eat dinner at the resort restaurant. Our meals, although good, took forever to come out of the kitchen. And it wasn't even busy. This should have been an omen for what was to come. We came down on our final morning expecting another buffet - which would have been fine. But, alas, it was 'a la carte' and we had to order from a menu - a menu that had nothing that wasn't served with the buffet the day before. IT TOOK AN HOUR AND A HALF for our plates to start to come out. And only 2 at a time. With at least 15 minutes before the next 2 came out. In the end, 4 of our group got up and left without a meal because of our tee times. A different group of 6 golfers just got up and left without being served any food. If it wasn't for the pleasantness and fortitude of our server, Lina, all would have been lost. All hail Lina for making our rough experience somewhat tolerable in the restaurant. She was just the best.

We had a very relaxing time. Staff are very nice and helpful. We will surely comeback during summer.

As always, an amazing time away.

Love the location

Favourite winter getaway with amazing food! We love to visit this little resort in the quiet off season. It's so peaceful. Great place to relax and enjoy delicious meals with a cozy feel and beautiful view of the lake. The staff have always been lovely. Our newly renovated room was fantastic, especially the shower. We have really enjoyed getting away for a few days each winter the last three years here and it's starting to feel like home. We always wish we could just stay here forever.

Quaint, cozy, “vintage“ character, beautiful setting, lots of ammenities
