Lodge restaurant not the best. No fridge/microwave in room. No real dining options here. Bring a big cooler for any drinks or food you need to keep cold. Pool was nice, beach was good after it opened. Staff super nice. A little dated but comfortable and peaceful. Definitely will revisit in the future.

The place is located overlooking the lake. It has beautiful sites. The pool was very clean. The breakfast is Continental for those wondering, they had waffles (the ones you make on the spot), a good selection of fruits, danishes, oatmeal, and coffee. The room was very clean and mine had a balcony as well. The only complaint I have is, overnight the fire alarm kept going off. I hope the manager can fix this situation, because it kept going off randomly for all the rooms in the lodge.

Fabulous stay in town for a wedding!

The facilities and the location were fabulous. While most amenities weren't open because it's still the off season, we were in town for a wedding and couldn't have picked a better place.

I got there and I didn't have a a room reserved for me. Lucky their was a room available and they matched the rate I got online. Why y'all charged me near 12.00 for what?I would like that back never seen anything on a charge from Expedia when I went online to book. And y'all failed to book me a room so I feel I should get that back. Overall stay was nice . Breakfast sucked no frig. Or microwave but overall was nice.

I loved my time at Pennyrile. I only have three complaints. The rooms should have fridges and microwaves, the dining options were limited due to no chicken (I do not eat beef or pork). But the waitress was very apologetic about not having chicken. And I understood. Overall, I had a great time and will be back!!
