We met friends at this hotel, went to the Field of Dreams game, and had a nice lunch the next day. They were able to check us in a little early and we appreciated it very much

The hallway was carpeted and smelled like a wet dog. The dining options were limited and expensive. After just reading that this is a smoke-free property, I found two employees smoking within 10 feet of the building. I asked them where I could find a luggage cart and both indicated that luggage carts were only at the main entrance. I later found luggage carts at the very next entrance to the building, approximately 25 feet from where the two employees were standing. I asked for a view of the mountain and the check-in person said, do you mean a view of the lake? Well, the name of the place is Chestnut MOUNTAIN Resort, so I expected there to be a mountain.
