Fun upbeat environment but lacking cleanliness.
Pros:

Fantastic location, close to parkway and don’t have to be concerned with drive to and from hotel.
Outside area at lodge is maintained and kept in good working condition.
Positive and upbeat environment!

Cons:

Throughout the years of coming to this location you can tell it has gradually gone down hill. When checking in we had to be switched to a different room due to numerous bugs in the floor of the room. The staff was extremely nice when brought to their attention but you could easily tell the room had not been spot checked prior to assignment.
The rooms had continuously been dirty (dirt on floors, shower glass dirty, etc.) which is disappointing because it has always been enjoyable to visit Camp Margaritaville. Hoping management can get a better handle and improvements can be made.

Our stay was short but very comfortable. Look forward to visiting again.
Pros:

Room size was great! The small bunk beds were as cute as can be and we will be bringing our grandkids next trip. Loved the shower controls on opposite sides of shower

Cons:

the elevator key was a pain (but not a deal breaker)
My wife hated the bed pillows (again not a deal breaker)

Pros:

Loved the location and the atmosphere/amenities were great.

Cons:

Our room was 107. The room was directly above the arcade which made it very loud up until 10pm. The volume on those games need to be turned down if anything.

Made the sleeping less enjoyable while on vacation.
