We came here to celebrate my birthday and I was dissatisfied the minute we arrived. First of all, social media had lead us to believe that a boat would bring us from the parking lot to the lobby via boat. Not true but that was our fault for believing on the influencers. Next, we arrived to our room. Room had a non pleasant smell and carpet looked filthy. We also tried to overlook that. The shower wall was dirty and the toilet paper holder was broken and loose.staff was very friendly so I have nothing negative to say about them. Something else to consider, if you are trying to have a peaceful stay, this is not the place. The set up is funky to where there’s a bar area in the open and right in the center of all the rooms. We were never able to go to bed early because people were mowing and being very rowdy. And that bar for most of the night. We booked this place, hoping to love it, and possibly extend for two more nights, instead, we left earlier than the checkout time, and we booked elsewhere instead. All to say that we paid a lot and we felt it wasn’t worth it..

This hotel double books their "superior" rooms. I booked my stay 18 days in advance for a superior room. I checked in at 4 pm and was offered their "deluxe" room. The deluxe room was very small (with plumbing issues) and faced the side of the property. My lake view was the stagnant pond scum view. The pool & pool area was covered in leaves. The bartender, Robert, was very kind & understanding. La Quinta is full of wonderful options. I won't book The Chateau again! I have yet to be contacted by the management. I'm not holding my breath, since there was a notice of change of management or sale at the reception desk. Very big disappointment for a holiday weekend planned well in advance. -JM

Absolutely loved this hotel!!!! It was prefect to celebrate our anniversary. I loved everything about this hotel, the room, the patio, the view and bathroom decor was stunning. The giant tub was an amazing way to relax. Definitely marked this hotel down and one of my favorites. Plus, the price was very reasonable. 5 star from me!

Not as good as it used to be

We've loved staying here over the years, however now the place is pretty run down. The pool and pool area have old dirty run down chairs and it is npt cleaned daily. No towels are available anymore for pool use. Also only continental breakfast, which is sad because the restaurant always had amazing food. Fixtures need updated in much of the hotel. The rooms are still very nice and comfortable but older. The staff is phenomenal every time and will handle your every wish.
