Top Washington Island Hotel Reviews

Gordon Lodge

Gordon Lodge

8/10 Good
"Breakfast was mostly unhealthy. Lots of calories and grease. For those of us who try to eat healthy they could provide hot oatmeal(not the instant packets) and more cold cereals. Pastries were really sweet; there are plainer healthier pastries like muffins. Staying in a cottage it would be nicer to have real coffee cups not the Styrofoam. At least for the cottages. Have to say I was disappointed with the pool. Guess I was expecting a real pool"

"While our stay was satisfactory the facility needs some updating. Our room smelled damp and musty. Also the lack of outlets in the room for charging our electronics is an example of not keeping up with the way people live today. Also the continental breakfast was rather limited to boiled eggs, yogurt and starches."
