“Was this motel found at the bottom of Lake Delton when it drained?”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 August 2010
5
people found this review helpful

Just because we were bringing dogs, does not mean we wanted to live like dogs! Do not waste your money! This was our family's only vacation this year and we were very disappointed with what we got for the money. Extremely old facility, as well as very dirty!! Our room reeked of urine and there was urine on the floor in the bathroom. The tub didn't drain properly, towels caked with food and the kitchenette was filthy. If we wouldn't have been there with 3 other families and all of our dogs, I would have demanded our money back and went elsewhere. I did not bother to complain after finding out everyone elses was just as dirty and out of date.

“Traveling with pet”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 June 2010

When you travel with a pet it’s very difficult to find a hotel to stay at. It’s even harder when you have a very large dog. Many hotels will accommodate small breeds, but not large. Delton Oaks takes them all. We were pleased to find this hotel and they allow you to leave the dogs unattended in the room. We took a crate and locked our dog up during the day. He was safe in air conditioning and we didn’t need to worry about him in a hot car when we had fun.

We had a great time in the Dells and loved being able to use a pool or the lake as well at this facility. The playground is great for young children and was very clean. They have multiple grills you can use for a cookout, which is great when you want to save some money and not go out to eat all the time. There are also reasonable sized refrigerators in the room for your use.

The down falls were there was some damage to the rooms from dogs on previous stays, the rooms were dated, and the beds were old. The mattresses were dated as well and not very comfortable. When you stay here though you need to remember it is close to the tourist activities and it allows pets. There is going to be damage in the rooms from previous stays and barking/whining during the day from other animals. You need to be prepared for the convenience they offer and understand they cater to pets. You need to have reasonable expectations when you stay here. All this said, we enjoyed our stay and would stay here again when traveling with our dog.

“Needs to be thoroughly cleaned”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 June 2009
2
people found this review helpful

Bill and Kate are very nice people, but they need to inspect after the cleaning team has gone through. Dirt in corners and under beds. Also, our unit smelled of mold. You couldn't find sweeter people, or a nicer location. Just tighten up the cleanlinesss standards.

I would recommend this only if I knew for sure it had been completely scrubbed. It's a super place for an old-fashioned vacation, and they allow pets, which is rare in the Dells.

“Peace and Serenity with a view of their crown jewel, Lake Delton”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 June 2009

I just wanted to thank Bill and Kate Pettit for such a wonderful stay at their resort. This place is exactly what a vacation should be! It's an older more rustic place and has a beautiful sandy beach, paddle boats, a raft in the lake and slide leading right into Lake Delton, along with row boats. This was an ideal old fashioned vacation which had all its perks and more. We stayed in the economy Building which is located 150 ft from the Lake and the room was very cozy. I was so impressed because yrs ago we stayed at a family resort located right on the lake and it is no longer in business, Delton Oaks had alot of similar qualities that this other place had and I fell in love with the view the amenties that it did have to offer. A wonderful heated outdoor pool, a bonfire at night time, volleyball and the most important thing of all the Lake Delton. Bill and Kate gave me the chance to enjoy a family style vacation with my children and I am so greatful that we came upon this wonderful and very family oriented resort. It is a smaller and less extravagent resort but I would rather stay here and build many memories with my children and come back each year than not to enjoy myself else where such as the more expensive places that don't offer you a old fashioned vacation like Delton Oaks Resort did for me and my family. Thank you once again Kate and Bill for giving my children and I a wonderful vacation. Sincerely Erin

“Rude, Poorly Kept, and Discriminative”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 May 2009
2
people found this review helpful

This place was gross. The rooms smelled terrible, the pool was poorly maintained, and the bugs were a plenty, everywhere. I'm an outdoors person, so I can roll with all that pretty good though. What really bothered me is that they claimed to be pet friendly but if I had a dog of a certain breed, I wasn't welcome. I will never stay there again due to that. I don't do business with ignorant, hateful, insecure people. To top it off, I've already met three people who have had the owner: Kate, be especially rude to them when they politely asked permission to bring their well-behaved dog to the resort during their stay. Pet friendly nothing, this place isn't friendly at all. Don't spend your money here if any of this bothers you.
