We had a lovely stay at the Osthoff, enjoying its beautiful grounds and several dining options, although I have to mention that our brunch experience could use improvement due to limited hours. The staff interactions were pleasant overall, but we did experience some service inconsistencies during our visit that could be worked on. The rooms, while comfortable, felt a bit dated in style. However, the resort had a great atmosphere for relaxation and family time.

My stay at the Osthoff was a mixed bag. On one hand, the resort has lovely facilities and a great variety of dining options, which I really appreciated. On the downside, I faced significant issues with my room not meeting my expectations despite my advance booking, and I noticed some major cleanliness concerns around the property. Great service from certain staff members helped a bit, but overall it didn’t quite live up to its reputation.

I was really disappointed that my room didn't have the lakefront view I specifically requested. Instead, I ended up with a view of the parking lot. The room itself was clean, but the air conditioning struggled to keep the temperature comfortable, which made for a less than restful night.

The location is nice, being close to the lake, but the resort’s outdoor area felt crowded and unkempt, especially at the beach where it was hard to find a clean spot to relax.

The dining options were decent, with a variety of choices available, but I found the extra charges for kids' activities a bit excessive for a resort at this price point.

I had a wonderful stay at the Osthoff Resort for a short getaway. The room was lovely and clean, with fantastic amenities, and I appreciated the scenic view. The beautiful grounds, including the gardens and beaches, made my stay that much more enjoyable. However, the noise from the live music at the beach bar disrupted the peace and quiet I was looking for. Overall, it was a relaxing trip, but I wish the noise situation was different.

I had a lovely time at the Osthoff Resort in Elkhart Lake. It's a great spot for a family getaway with a laid-back vibe and plenty of activities for kids. The pools and private beach access were fantastic for family fun, although the dining didn’t meet my expectations for dinner. Overall, I’d say the amenities provide good value, but there are areas that could use improvement, like the cleanliness of the hallways and the food quality.

The Osthoff Resort has stunning grounds and a beautiful lake view, perfect for a relaxing getaway. My family loved the watersport rentals and outdoor ambiance, especially the evening fire and s'mores. However, my recent stay had issues with noise from live music that made it hard to enjoy my room. The lack of housekeeping during our visit added to the disappointment despite some enjoyable meals and spa services.
