What guests think

Across reviews, The Resort at Lake of the Ozarks stands out for a convenient lakeside setting with live music at Encore and an adult pool with a swim-up bar, while experiences with rooms, cleanliness, and noise vary considerably.

Guests frequently praise friendly staff and quick check-ins, though several report misassigned rooms, billing issues, or slow responses. Rooms range from remodeled to dated and often feel small; beds are commonly reported firm, walls can be thin, and lake views may be obstructed. Amenities create a lively scene, but some facilities are out of order, parking can be tight, and breakfast is basic while dining at Encore is generally well liked. Expect a lively stay with entertainment on site, but experiences differ by building and room type.

Property is not as pictured online. Our room was very dated. We had many issues, and most weren’t fixed with our stay. The floor in our room had came up, my child tripped on it. Maintenance was supposed to come and called twice and never showed up to fix it. Our sink wouldn’t drain properly either. There is nothing to hold the curtains back and so when the air is on, they just blow over it. I was told to use something to prop them up and hold them back, but no solution on their end. We also had a dirty mini fridge with stains and hair in it, along with dirty bed covers. Housekeeping did come clean/change this when we called, but still gross to walk in to. We were also charged a fee for the pool, gym equipment, and breakfast. The gym equipment is broke though and doesn’t even work. Overall very poor experience and won’t be staying here again. Just a warning again the photos are very deceiving online.

Overall very clean and indoor pool area was nice for the kids. The game room and gym both had out of service signs on everything so we did not get to use any of them. Breakfast is nothing fancy but enough to get your day started. We had booked 2 nights but couldnt arrive til next day due to tornado outbreak near my home....was told "you didn't call, so no refund". A phone call to the hotel wasn't on my mind at the time of the storms but oh well I guess.

Stay was good. Just okay room but it was clean. First night woke up as next door couple was smoking weed and talking outside our room at 4am. Not the resorts fault but it was very disturbing especially the stink. The bar Encore was nice. A little pricey but happy hour was very reasonable and the staff was great. Nice adult only pool with swimup bar was awesome. We would definitely stay there again.

The best view of the lake is from the 4th floor outside seating area by the elevators. There\'s a BIG marina on the lake shore below the "resort." It was off season, so only continental breakfast during the week. The pool is 2.5 feet to 3.5 feet, so great for kids, not great for swimming. Rooms were ok clean. They are upgrading the rooms, and you can tell. Staff was very friendly.

Our room was squeaky clean and well-maintained. The front desk staff was friendly and helpful. The coffee in the breakfast area was terrific! Will stay here again.

Photos provided online did not match rooms proper description. Gaps between main door and door frame let bugs and sunlight into the room. We asked for clean sheets and never received them so for two days we slept on the mattress pad. Had to request more towels that were stained. Shower had a huge crack on the wall and was letting water into the wall and it would drain an awful color once water was turned off.

Not sure how well the room had been cleaned prior to our visit. There was an empty beer can and potato chip package underneath the bench and it was very dusty. The bathtub did not look clean, dirt around the edges and the floor was sticky. The bed linens were clean tho and the bed comfortable. Great location and we enjoyed the Encore for dinner and drinks.

Our room had water damage above the shower and the carpet in the room had numerous old stains. The “lake view” is mostly obstructed by Encore and other buildings because we were on first floor, second floor may be better. Staff was super friendly and very quick at check in though. Check out was just as great, staff all smiles and laughs. Overall not bad stay, photos of lake view and bathrooms are a bit off from what actual is.

The pictures of the property don't really match the real thing. This hotel is almost like a campus. There are different buildings you are sent to. The building we were sent to had doors on the outside of the building like a motel. This should be advertised better because I did not book for a motel room, I booked a hotel room.

I highly recommend staying in the townhouse option if you can. I love the room there, the air conditioner is completely adjustable, I love the tall ceilings it just feels so much more open than the regular rooms. I stay here often for business and will say the regular rooms are good too, but the townhouse is definitely lux!

I hate to leave a poor review but there’s not much good I can say about our two night visit to this facility. Upon check in, I requested that the facility remove the card on file and replace it with another card. They failed to do that, therefore all charges were applied to a card that I only wanted to use to reserve the room. The staff member at check out simply commented that they failed to swap the cards in the system as I requested. Simple request that was mishandled. When we checked into our room, it was late in the evening. We noticed that the outside light was directly over our door. Upon entering our room, tons of bugs entered as well. Little did we know, they were simply joining the bugs that were already in the room. The bed and bathroom had bugs all over, along with dirt and “body hair”. My girlfriend found a portion of a weave under the desk next to the TV. When we presented these concerns shortly after checking in, we were given two new bed sheets and were told that the room would be cleaned the following morning. When we returned the following afternoon and being gone all morning, we found that the floor had been mopped but nothing else had been done. The weave was, and still is, where we found it. My Mom, Girlfriend, and her daughter slept on top of their clean clothes all weekend. The beds were dirty and disgusting. I would not recommend this facility to anyone, truthfully. All other amenities were completely overshadowed by the poorly cleaned rooms.

Would definitely recommend to everyone to stay there.

She let us check a different room with pillow top beds & made the room switch extremely easy!! Not only that but Stephanie was one of the few employees that was extremely friendly, always with a smile & a wave. Stephanie ROCKS!!

We found this hotel a good value. Front desk staff was very welcoming and helpful. Room was undated, comfortable and very clean. Ice machine was broken, but staff helped me find another one. Breakfast being offered was a surprise, but selection was poor (carbs only, no protein) and no regular coffee was available. My rec to property: either improve your breakfast or don't offer one. Why leave a bad final impression of your property?

The convenience of the bars and restaurant being easy walking distance from hotel with security patrolling. The adult pool was fantastic and there is a little boutique! The restaurant is beautiful and the food is delicious. The Sky Bar with live entertainment just completed our evenings. I was most impressed with the owners. They walk around and introduce themselves and ask if everything is ok. They even assist their staff in cleaning spills and clearing tables. Owners who take care of their staff in that manner definitely takes pride in their business!

We were expecting a much higher resort like experience. The restaurant the encore was horrible. The food was terrible. There was no real pool. The pool was a bar so you couldn’t actually swim. There was no dock to rent a boat at even though there was a giant dock there they didn’t have reciprocity with the dock. It was a horrible, horrible time and Expedia is the problem. We were trying to book another place and they switched us to this place instead I will never use Expedia again.

The shower pressure was poor-if you wanted full pressure you had to turn it all the way hot and if you wanted warm you had minimal pressure. The breakfast at Encore restaurant was overpriced and not very good but the staff were wonderful.
