This property will always hold my heart. The amount of space and freedom to explore the grounds with comfort is like no other. CHRIS and Dennis are the best servers and Butch gave an amazing boat tour! The place has opportunity for sure, however its still worth everything included. I Hope if they are sold, the concept will remain the same. Theres nothing LIKE it.

Staff was incredible can’t say that enough . The lake is beautiful! The place is unsanitary! Pools are dirty rusted , lounge chairs had mold . Our hot tub in the room had hair and a toe nail in it . Nothing and I mean nothing has been updated or probably maintained since the seventies ! There was water in the downstairs floor to the fitness center and activities, very unhappy

It's a 3-Star hotel so don't expect the room to be glamourous, but my wife and I had a great time. Place was probably incredible in the 90s/early 2000s but needs maintenance. Food was good, but restaurant is understaffed. We stayed in the Champagne room, despite all of that, I do recommend staying here. It has a nice charm to it, Note, if you're afraid, there are lots of deer on site. But they are not aggressive, they seem to know where the food is. Enjoy!

Shame to see old school honeymoon resorts fall out of favor with the now crowd. Falling revenue and climbing maintenance is strangling this once iconic resort. The staff appears to love what they do and do it exceptionally well. They do their best with what they have and made my stay an enjoyable one, adding a check to a bucket list item. Thanks to the staff for all of your hard work and dedication!

We stayed in the champagne tub room with the heart shaped pool. Loved it! Plenty of space and very romantic room. We stayed 2 nights and never left the property. We attended a comedy show and a magic show both entertaining. We took a boat ride, played in the arcade, played mini golf and bowled. We did trivia and won. The deer and other wildlife around were adorable. Breakfast was good but dinner was amazing. One of the best steaks I've ever had. We truly had a memorable time.

We wouldn’t recommend this resort to anyone who ask us about it. For one our room was filthy the mirrors on ceiling had blood splatters on them and in the pool room the mirrors were nasty like they weren’t cleaned. The champagne hot tub took a hour to two to fill up and paint was chipped off the bathtub annd water stains coming from faucet and where they left water sit near drain and hair that we had to clean up ourselves before we could even get in and enjoy it and the bottom of mirror around that tub had stuff coming out of it. The ac in the rooms worked but didn’t cool the room down at all. Where the room the bed to sleep in was at was miserably hot and it looked like the bed sheets weren’t washed they were just put back onto bed. The heart pool room was so hot we barely got to hang out in the pool afraid of heat exhaustion. And the way this place charged us and then turned around and charged our room was insane. It definitely isn’t worth it. The pictures on the website that they make it out to be are not at all what it really is. As big as this place was we swore it was gonna be so busy cause it looked so beautiful from the pictures but their may have been maybe less then 100 people during our stay this weekend. One entire row of places was competently empty and it looked as it was being torn apart and just left abandoned. And one hot tub and pool we was thinking getting into cause it was 24 hours was disgraceful

Check-in was 2 hours late. Rooms were not ready until 5:30 pm. Next morning we noticed there was water leaking from the AC unit. The maintenance guy came and had to replace the unit. We asked for another suite replacement and we had to wait 5 hours now. Front desk staff especially Melissa needs to correct her attitude. Instead of apologizing or comforting she did care less about it! It was only when the manager Lisa got involved things were getting resolved. The staff in Breakfast/ dining area are very good. Food quality was good. Especially Dennis was very good at his service and he definitely gets 5 stars from us.

Hey y'all, This was our second time to visit the area. We stayed somewhere else last time but decided this time to try Cove Haven Resort.
The positives: breakfast buffet had everything one could think of for breakfast and was tasty and the service was great. The ceiling above the round bed had twinkling lights which was cool to look at in the dark. It was fun to see the deer and other wildlife.
The negatives: room had a musty smell. The room had stairs down to the sleeping area. The red heart-shaped tub was cute but there was some water in it, leaving us to wonder if it was from cleaning it or something else. One of the TV remotes did not work. While the \"resort\" is technically on the lake, there was no view of the lake from our room or the area we were in. The check-in process and check-out were both underwhelming.
Funny story about breakfast-when we checked in, the desk personnel was insistent that we make a reservation for the following morning's breakfast. We walked into a huge dining area...and were the only ones there. I guess that helps them plan their food preparation but it seemed restrictive for those on vacation.
I think the word \"resort\" gave me high expectations but those were not met.

I looked forward to staying at Cove Haven Resort for years. My parents spent their honeymoon here, and I always dreamed of visiting to recreate some of their memories and photos. Based on the stunning pictures on the website, I expected a romantic and enjoyable getaway. Unfortunately, my experience was extremely disappointing.
The room was in very poor condition. The carpet smelled strongly of mold, the bed felt old and worn out, and the entire room looked like it had not been updated in decades. The bathtub appeared stained and dirty, and the overall condition of the room gave the impression that little to no renovation has been done for many years.
What was most frustrating was that the photos on the website do not accurately represent the current condition of the rooms. The images appear to be from when the resort first opened or from many years ago, which felt misleading. The resort has so much potential, and I truly believe it could attract many more guests if management invested in updating and renovating the accommodations.
To make matters worse, I found ants and spiders throughout the room, which made the stay even more uncomfortable. I also noticed that many guest concerns seem to receive generic AI-generated responses rather than genuine efforts to address the issues being raised.
I wanted to love this resort because of the family memories attached to it, but sadly, the reality did not match the expectations. I hope management takes reviews like this seriously.

Hot water wasn’t working on The 1st day but started working on the 2nd ..One Tv was blacking out on the first night? Both tvs was blacking out in the 2nd night. For the amount of money you pay to stay here things should be working to satisfy the customers. Also, the entire resort needs remodeling. My stay was from Fri 6/19-6/21/2026. We did enjoy the 8:00pm -10:00pm shows that occurred both nights.

We have come here before and everything was ok. The property needs to be updated badly. As a business owner myself I totally get overhead and from what I see you guys have A lot of people working for you which in turn means ALOT of overhead. The room we had was updated with new flooring. The pool was ice cold in our room so we only swam once , the heart shaped jacuzzi was nice but not very deep. The sauna would’ve been nice if the door stayed shut but it didn’t. I paid almost 1k for two days and honestly I feel as if I’m owed a partial refund. I hate reviewing businesses because I know how hard it is and perhaps this was just a bad stay and had we gotten another room it would’ve been better; I’m not too sure about the latter. Sad to say but it left ALOT to be desired.

The resort has seen better days and its age is starting to show. The room was very fun and spacious. The round bed, on wheels, kept rolling away from the headboard and all the pillows would fall off. The private pool and heart-shaped jacuzzi were a great feature. Dinner and breakfast were good, both leaned heavily on the large salad bar. On a side note, there were deer everywhere and you could buy feed at the store to hand feed them.
