Osthoff Resort

Nice resort. 2 complaints— The signs everywhere saying “only take two towels!!!” are off putting and aggressive. There should be complimentary coffee in the lobby. You have to wait in a half hour line to get coffee at the bar in the lobby in the morning. It’s inefficient and aggravating. Have carafes of free coffee and milk in the morning. That should be expected at a resort like this. Our unit did not have an AC unit in the bedroom.

Elkhart Lake is a beautiful area to experience. The Osthoff Resort is an average plus resort located in a prime setting. Service is ok plus, rooms are ok plus, but be wary of their deceptive pricing and specials. We thought we were booking a room for a special get away for my wife and I that included a bottle of sparkling wing, chocolate covered strawberries and a $30 a day food and beverage allowance, Turns out, NOT, apparently i booked a different special online even though i was checking out on the same page of the offer. My fault, LOL! The money is not the issue, it's the deceptiveness of the advertising and the lack of the living up to the offer once i confronted them. I may go back there, but it's hard to get past deceptive advertising and lies. So if you are going to stay here, call and make the reservation and do not do it online because you will probably buy something you did not want. PS, rooms are starting to get dated, and the restaurants onsite are just ok plus. Out of 5 stars, I would rate our experience at 2.5 stars.

This is an overpriced average resort that really caters to families. The spa is overpriced and in need of repairs. There is no designated area for the "romantic getaway" they showed in pictures. The food scene is nothing like advertised. This is an average resort in a small town (nice) priced like a big city 5 star experience.

Beautiful property on a pristine lake. So much fun to hang out at the beach bar or use the grills to make dinner by the shore. Nice fully equipped kitchens in the suites or many good options in town and in nearby Sheboygan.

We enjoyed absolutely everything about this resort. Staff were amazing. Everything was so clean and well-maintained. We loved the pools and the lake-side beach and cafe. We love the watersports! We truly didn't want to leave!

We've stayed at the Osthoff at least 20 times, and we love it as well as the town of Elkhart Lake. The facility is beautiful, the staff is terrific, the walking distance to the charming downtown is extremely convenient. Although we didn't have time to use them on this visit, the Aspira Spa and the beach are wonderful as well. For both families and couples, you can't beat the Osthoff!
