I had a wonderful experience at Oakwood Resort for our anniversary and my husband's birthday. The staff went above and beyond to make our stay special, from the warm welcome at the front desk to the amazing treats we received. The location by the lake was beautiful and offered plenty of activities. However, we had some noise from a nearby dog, and the breakfast was not up to expectations. Overall, it was a memorable stay with exceptional service but could improve in certain areas.
