Fox River Resort at SheridanRental Guest Reviews

Misleading

There is no breakfast as advertised, there is one restaurant in town, you will drive 20 minutes plus to the nearest restaurant so bring your own food. No ATM, no ice machine, additional towels are $11. The water park is not included and no water falls like the website advertises.

Nice get away

I liked that it was a one stop shop , they had food , a arcade , a movie theatre , pool just a lot of fun things to do , my son & niece had a good time for his birthday hey enjoyed the getting in the pool , I think it a cool getaway place

Isolated Getaway

Upon arrival to the resort, it had the typical vibe of a resort, long driveway and abundance of area. After checking into our room at the main building, the place looked clean and well kept. We drove around the property to get a feel of the area. There truly is allot to do. Anything from hiking to swimming, golf to fishing. The truly downside to this resort is the area. If you want to go out for dinner, you must drive roughly 30 minutes to the nearest city. There is a pizza place in town that will deliver to the resort, but anything outside of that is a drive. As for the place, you truly do not have to leave. Bring food to cook and your beverages of choice. Food and beverages on site are not cheap, its a "gotcha" moment if you need anything. You can stay in your room and overlook the nearby wooded areas or go outside and enjoy the outdoors. One thing that needs to be noted is the waterpark is NOT included in the price of the room. To me, this should be complementary to the guests that stay at the resort. Its not a big waterpark, but if you are under 48", you are isolated to one area of the indoor waterpark, but if you are over 48", you are isolated into another.

Great

Very great place to go it have so much to fo the rooms ate very clean the pools are clean and big. And you can walk to everything if you want. And the have fun things to do every day

It used to be better

We stayed here last year and had a fantastic time. We were given free waterpark passes for attending a sales presentation, and they had food offerings in the activity center kind of like a snack bar. All of that has changed. We booked our stay this year because of the amenities, but they were sorely lacking. The waterpark was really expensive for what they offer, and they wanted to charge me the same price to go in and sit to watch my kids even though I was in street clothes and couldn’t get in the water. Aside from amenities, the stay was ok. The front desk staff were really helpful and friendly, and one member of staff even brought us bedding for the fold out after 10pm in a storm because housekeeping didn’t leave any in the villa. One thing I will caution you on is to wear your shoes or sandals inside because otherwise your feet are going to be dirty after you get out of the shower. Everything else was clean, but the carpet needs help. I wouldn’t even let my kids sit on the floor because of how dirty the carpet was. I’m sad that this resort has changed so much in the last year and not for the better. I was told they are short staffed, and I honestly feel bad for the staff because they really are trying. It just seems like some bad decisions were made this year. Hopefully it will get better, but we won’t be back.

Great location. Comfortable rooms.

This is a great getaway. You can bring your own food to prepare in the kitchenette or eat on the property. It's a great me time/ family place. The pool is cool.

Really nice place to stay. 2

No real complaints about the stay within control of the staff. The rooms were clean, they provided plenty of towels and pool towels. However, a good note is don't lose any of the towels at the pool. They charge for that and extra towels will cost a fee.

Our stay at the resort.

The downfalls were the room wasn't vacuumed in a few places and isn't cleaned on a daily basis. It was only my husband and I so that wasn't so bad. There are no food options at the resort, only cooking yourself. I don't want to cook on vacation.

Comfortable bed

Clean and comfortable Free laundry No food service but do have a small pantry to purchase items

Nice room and comfortable bed

It was an okay getaway for my family. Hated that I had to wait 2hrs after my check in to get access to my room. Did not like that the indoor waterpark was not included with my stay! Wasn't able to get the latest check because I just became a member. Wifi and cable was not available for maybe half the first night! Also, i didn't like that if i wanted to stay another night, i would have to check out, book online again, then come back at check in. Overall the beds were comfortable and the room was roomy.
