There was no cleaning service , the curtains were so thin the lights outside made it like daylight all night in our room. My husband sat on the hard wood chair and it broke. Walking in our room was like walking into a prison cell. We joked we had lock down every night . No notice that the water park facilities were closed down when we booked. We chose this place cause my grandson had something to do there all to find out everything was closed down. Would of been nice to know this before booking. All an all I give it 3 stars cause the restaurant was great with a great view

When I made the reservation through Hotels.com I requested a handicap accessible room. I did not get that. Why ask if you have special request if you are not going to give the special requests.

Don’t stay here, not worth the price. Below average rooms that don’t stay cold we woke up sweating, no complimentary breakfast, water park was closed(we only chose to stay here for the water park for our 2 year old), no lake/beach access and sketchy board walks, there is a tiny outdoor 4.5 foot pool that has no shade. Next year we will be staying at triggs bay right next door across the bridge. It looked sketchy online but it’s where we’ve spent most of our time due to literally everything being shut down at Bridges bay “RESORT”. Triggs has a beach entry, water toy rentals, little toys and plenty of shade and seating set out on the beach and everyone was really nice there. I’m not sure about the inside of Triggs but I’d take that over Bridges any day.

Nice waterpark. Rooms need updating.
Rooms were clean and staff was friendly. The beds were terribly uncomfortable. Old and squeaky. I was disappointed in the small selection of food and drinks in the water park and the set up to check-in to the water park caused long delays. The food at the waterfront and bracco was good. Could use more staff to serve food and drinks.
