We paid $600 for our room mid week for one night. It was what you would expect for a room half the price. I wanted to get to the room an hour early and was unable to. The room was tired looking with patio doors that were damaged and hard to open. The bed was nice. There was a living room that had a somewhat comfortable couch. The towels were small and scratchy .There was a fridge, coffee maker and microwave, but the coffee maker in a room off the bathroom, and the microwave on the desk, meaning I had to bend over awkwardly to use it. Not exactly a kitchenette. There was not a vending machine on our floor, the carpets were badly stained on the staircases and stairwells. There was a pub on the grounds but nowhere for finer dining. It is not that the stay was bad or unacceptable. But there are better places to go for that price

Property is very outdated, no renovations done for a long time, no new amenities, no outside pool, the air quality inside pool is very poor. No microwave option included, charged $25 for the very old microwave. Room was not cleaned and towels not changed, stayed 2 nights on the long weekend. No washrooms on the private beach, even portable, 10 minutes walk to the room, clearly no one used the room's washroom, when on the beach. PRICE FOR THE ROOM IS OVERCHARGED.

Stayed at the Pine Lodge. Love this property, kids wish we stayed another couple more days. The only concerns we had was the room we stayed in had some kind of maybe machine going off and we heard the water thru the pipes from the top floor. Dave’s Pub dinning, recommend to call for reservation as it’s not a huge place. But aside from that it was a good stay, we may do it again in the future.

Great location - quiet and there was always somewhere to park. We unfortunately didn't try the onsite restaurant but will when we return. This was our first visit to the Oakwood but we have been many times to Grand Bend. It was a great location that we would happily return to. The rooms were a bit run down. The washrooms could have used some renovations but it was functional. We went to the pool and enjoyed the private beach. It was a very nice trip! Nothing fancy, but it was very enjoyable and we were able to walk both along the beach, and along the highway to go back and forth to the main area in Grand Bend. I would return!

Oakwood Inn had a private beach to walk to. The city beach was overcrowded and hard to get a parking spot. That, was a big advantage. But,They need to do more for their customers that need help getting to the beach. Plus it was hard to sleep with dogs barking and noisy neighbors in the hotel.

The mildew smell in the room hit you when you opened the door and everything was damp (carpet, bed, couch). They put us in an adjoining room and there was a barky dog. The tv remote didn’t work. We checked out early after one night and they didn’t apologize, offer us a different room or offer us a refund. So disappointing because we have not had any complaints of our stays in the past.

Oakwood Inn was just OK. Certainly not a 4 star hotel. Rooms were comfortable like a dated rustic lodge, which was kind of nice and added to the overall feel of the place. It could do with a little TLC and attention to detail in the cleanliness department. Maybe wash the windows and sweep off the sitting areas occasionally. Our first room smelled so bad of stale cigarette smoke we asked to be switched. They say " no smoking" in the rooms but I am not sure they really do anything about it. The whole 1st floor of our Lodge reeked of it Unfortunately, the dining room where breakfast is served is crawling with carpenter ants. Speaking of buffet breakfast, it is not that great. Chewy bacon, powdered eggs, frozen begium waffles, instant oatmeal.... I have had better at a Super 8 or Comfort Inn. Very disappointing. Dave's Pub was very good, though. Deanne was great and she and her coworkers work their butts off with a smile on their face. Shout out to Robin at the front desk. She is super helpful and knowledgeable. Overall, this is a decent place to stay, but is not worth the 4 star rating and a little overpriced for what you are getting. Unless you are looking for somewhere quiet, close to the beach and within walking distance of downtown.

We were disappointed with our experience. The amount of stairs was an issue. Stairwell was hot and carpets were stained. Banister was wobbly. Upgrading is definitely needed. Beach area was full of debris. Complementary breakfast is not offered. Buffet style breakfast is $30. I've stayed in less expensive places that offered at least continental breakfast included with stay. Dave's pub was nice with good food. Pool was nice but in need of a cleaning. Not worth the money.☹️

Access to the beach was amazing! Staff at the front desk upon check-in were welcoming and friendly. Unfortunately the pool was dirty and there weren’t enough chairs to even sit around the pool. Stayed in Pine lodge which was so loud listening to all the people in the hall way. A/C hardly worked and carpets throughout the pine lodge were so stained and gross.
