This resort spoiled our vacations. Toilet flooded literally in the whole bathroom. We called up the house cleaning and an employee came giving us the plunge to clear off the toilet and we had to clean the bathroom ourself as there was no house keeping staff. After that tiring experience we thought about having a cup of coffee and machine was not working. For a family of four they have kept just one very tiny tube of toiletries. Pathetic experience!!

Golfing here is only a 9 hole course but it is well maintained and great for young golfers. The staff here are incredible! So friendly and warm! The clean sandy beach is only a 2 minute walk down a private paved road and here you can watch the most amazing sunsets. The pool is clean and quiet. I only wish they still.had a hot tub as it is nice after golfing all day to relax those muscles or even just to get warm on those chilly fall nights. The rooms are a little dated and run down. And I guess where there are pets allowed, our room had the distinct smell of cat urine when you first walked in. But the beds were clean and super cozy and the air conditioner was working so the room was quite comfortable. The breakfast buffet was delicious however the $38 steak at Dave's Pub was really bad. My family also said their food was disappointing there especially when the prices were so high. I recommend eating in town if you can because for the price, you can get more choices and better food. But yes our family had a great time overall and would come back again.

The property was clean and Ok size. The television was too small, it can be upgraded to a bigger screen. The toilette can use a lid, it didn't have a lid. It was very inconvenient trying to change in that small bathroom when the toilette was missing a lid and there was not space counter to put anything. The area around the property wasn't very inviting. The section where we were staying was surrounded by sheds were the golf course equipment, tools, etc, were kept, not a very good scenery.

We had an amazing two nights at the Oakwood Resort! The staff were pleasant, courteous and helpful. The grounds were beautiful and so peaceful. We enjoyed the pool as well. It was so handy to walk to the private beach or drive 6 minutes to Grand Bend beach, We enjoyed walking the strip with all the interesting shops. Just a great little gem for a getaway!

This was our first time staying at Oakwood Resort as well as being in Grand Bend. Friendly staff, quiet space and very convenient for getting to the main beach area. We loved the path that provides access to a private beach. A nice way to end our day after having dinner on the night we stayed at Oakwood. We would definitely return to this location. A little of an older resort, but my family and I enjoyed the rustic feel. It served our needs perfectly.

A winter storm hit 30 min before we arrived and almost missed the driveway. The place was almost empty, probably due to being the off season. We found the front desk and there was no one around. Despite calling out, there was no desk bell, after 15 min I left to try to find someone. A resident in the parking lot said that was the front desk so I went back. Finally after another 5 min of waiting a girl came out of the backroom and when I complained about standing there waiting she seemed rather annoyed and said "I was on a call!" Restaurant was closed which given time if year was understandable but at least some signage to let people know so you don't have to wander around in a blizzard. Not a lot of buildings interconnected so you have to go outside. We had stayed here quite a few years ago and it was great but not so much this time.
