Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
this property is uniquely nestled into a strip mall. It is extremely outdated and ‘resort facilities’ are either closed or very basic. The pools might remind one of a fancy motel six - very depressing. The pictures on the brochure are very misleading. I was extremely disappointed and would not recommend. The use of the term ‘resort’ in not appropriate.

Loved it!
Beautiful hotel! I didn't realize there was lake in San Marcos but we really enjoyed our view/stay. We came down from NorCal for the CSUSM orientation and ate at the local restaurant which was DELISH. Would absolutely stay here again!

The resort grounds and staff are terrific. Food's great. Patio view and seats are pleasant. My room smelled a bit like urine (my Mom's room smelled a bit musty). I could hear normal conversation in the next room.

Great Hotel
Hotel was clean and comfortable; we loved the fire pits at night. The view was beautiful, and my kids loved the kayaks. The area is nice with lots to do, very close to Legoland and not a bad drive to the San Diego Zoo. We would definitely stay again.
