Dogwood Acres Resort

Dogwood Acres Resort is a go-to spot for those seeking a serene getaway. Guests often talk about how well-maintained the cabins are and how welcoming the staff is. It’s a favorite for anyone looking to relax by the lake.

We stayed here for the first time over Memorial Day weekend. The owners are wonderful. They went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed and you can tell they truly want their guests to have a good time. These are not fancy new condos. They are vintage lakeside cabins that are very clean and well taken care of and you can tell the owners are working their butts off to make improvements, but I will take clean, comfortable and affordable over shiny and expensive any day. The crappie fishing off the fishing dock was excellent. The owners are super friendly and flexible. My family loved the indoor pool, hot tub and small game room. The swimming area was nice but it was a busy boating weekend so we chose to swim off one of the swim platforms towards the back of the cove where the water was nice and calm. They are just a few minute drive to Franky & Louie's (our favorite lakeside beach bar & grill) and so close by water that you can listen to the live music from a distance at night from your cabin. I have stayed at little resorts all over the lake and rarely write reviews. I only do so when something really stands out about a place and the owners definitely make this a stand-out place.

I can't say enough about this place! The hospitality is outstanding here! We rented a boat here for the second year and we also brought our own boat along due to the pontoon only allowing 10. Shortly after taking off onto the water our boat had issues. We thought our day was ruined and the group on the pontoon would have to go without us, but they allowed us to ride along with our group and told us to enjoy the day! We need more people like this. The prices are also unbeatable!

I have nothing but positive things to say about this resort! 1) They are pet friendly which is amazing because we love to bring our 74lb furry child with us when we travel! 2) They have a variety of different cabin styles. For us, we just need one bed and a place to fish which cabin #12 was perfect for us! 3) The family that owns this resort is so incredibly friendly and was very accommodating as we arrived after they closed and was still able to show us how to get to our cottage! If you're looking for a quiet getaway would highly recommend!

One of the best vacations we've had has been at this Resort. Affordability, cleanliness, amenities, friendliness. I could go on but you get the idea. That's kind of place to go for stress relief and finding your soul. Lee and Jen took care of a lot of things that needed to be taken care of like brand new flooring for the boat, fishing, and swimming docks were replaced. The road from the street down to this Resort has brand new asphalt, and cement Road is brand new for launching boats. One of my favorite things that they replaced was the ladder to go in and out of the water from the swimming dock. The old ladder was so terrible to try to climb up on to the dock that I probably would have been able to get out of the water. We're leaving today and feeling refreshed and stress-free.
