Beautiful room. Close to cedar point. Everyone was friendly. Room needed a good sweep but all in all it was great and we will be back!

My dad and I have stayed at this place twice now, and I’d say it’s definitely worth it.

Had the Nashville Hot wings that were not very good . Extremely sweet for a hot wing. Also watery diarrhea the next day. Had pizzia in the evening also but i think it was the wings.

We’ve stayed at the stables twice now and both times, 2 different room types, the rooms were clean and comfortable, and I’m picky! The furnishings were nice. The deluxe suite was our most favorite room, it’s so large and the couch looked brand new. We’ll be back.

Check in was very confusing- as there is a tiny booth that is not attended in a very crowded/cluttered restaurant. We walked through this maze of a restaurant for a few minutes before someone told us where to look for the check in booth. The restaurant was very dirty and when they took us to the hotel area- it was even dirtier… stained carpeting in the halls, water stains on the ceiling- water damage to pictures on the wall. It took them 30 minutes to get us into our room with an emergency key, because their machine broke. They kept telling us that had never happened before, but there were other reviews saying this happened. We couldn’t get our actual keys until 9pm. The room seemed ok, but because of everything being so dirty outside of it- it felt gross too. There was complimentary wine and beer and chocolate- which was nice. The hotel is not attended by staff after 10pm and they do not answer their phone before that, because it’s technically part of the restaurant - which is super busy and chaotic…. so you’re pretty SOL if you have any issues. When the restaurant closes, you have to access the hotel through a back door that is supposed to require a key, but was broken and unlocked- another thing we saw written in a few reviews from last year- so obviously they’re just not keeping up with maintaining this place. Will not be returning!

Service, the room everything

Keys did not work on the door initially and had to go get a different key card, carpet has stains throughout, found a VIP wristband under the edge of the bed from a previous person, found ants in the middle of the floor, mouse droppings around the toilet and dead bugs behind it, couch has stains and the couch back was broken, literally every sheetrock tape seam and corner is bubbling up (not just a few but EVERY SINGLE ONE), sheetrock repair to the wall was falling out and cracking, window sills had dead bugs and dust/dirt accruing and obviously have not been cleaned in a long time. At night there is no one there to assist you, the only way to get in touch with anyone is the service phone at the back door entrance that rings through to the adjacent Holiday Inn front desk, which we were told is owned by the same person/group. After hours the only entrance/exit is through a dark sketchy back parking lot door that has a key card access however is not locked and anyone can enter at any time. Attempted to reach someone and was told they would call us back in the morning, 2 days later and we keep getting redirected to voicemail. 8 pictures is not enough to show how poorly the room was cleaned and kept.

It wasn’t what I expected coming through the doors. The rooms are awesome. The food was really good as well as service. The hotel was very clean. A great place for the whole family it comes with a bowling sale inside the hotel.

Was pleasantly surprised by how big the sports bar area was that the hotel is attached to. The room was really cute and loved the fireplace and the nice shutter blinds. The bathroom was not renovated but it was “fine”. We had the king suite room so we had a little couch (very uncomfortable -don’t try to sleep on it) but the bed was super comfy and great pillows. They gave us free wine and beer in the room!! And free bowling but we didn’t have time to check that out. Very cheap Uber less than $15 to cedar point. Very convenient. I will definitely stay here again if I come back to cedar point.

Amazing 👏 place for couples. This place was awesome very relaxing and romantic vibes in the room. They offer many options to choose from right there in the building. I was expecting one thing and was blown away ny the experience. Highly recommended for couples.

Super gorgeous rooms, complimentary alcohol and really nice horse themed decor. The only thing I will say is that the check in experience is confusing and not very good. We could not find where to check in and realized we had to go to the bar… to go check into our hotel rooms. If they had a normal check in desk it would be 10/10 but we had to ask an employee where to check in and then walk through a bar to get checked in.

Free bowling and free beer and wine upon arrival. Rooms are kind of dark but cozy. Unique and convenient stay for the area.

The room was nice, recently remodeled and clean. There’s no elevator though, and check in reminds me of a Hotel Impossible episode. You check into the hotel in their bar which in the light of day made me not want to walk around much. No one was even available to assist us before check in. It’d be a great spot if you’ve got some kids that need constant activities like bowling or off track betting lol. There’s also an event center so that gets rented and loud- we had a group on there till 2:30am and was very loud coming out of the party.

Great location at the entrance to Cedar Point, parking & entrance behind the Holiday Inn Express. Check in at Thirsty Pony but you can get there from the entrance in the back. There was lots that was really good about this place but definitely some fine tuning could make this place a real gem. Room was clean & comfortable. There’s complimentary, wine, craft beer, water & chocolate. There was no corkscrew or bottle opener though 😕 & we got back from CP late so no drinks for me that night. Also bowling passes included. Same owner as Holiday Inn Express so you can call them if you need anything; I just didn’t want to wait. Also coffee pot & microwave. Decor is rustic & super cute. Shower gel, shampoo, conditioner, body lotion, soap, mouthwash all provided but lotion was empty (stationary refillable containers). Barn door on the bathroom doesn’t completely close so there’s not full privacy. That wasn’t a problem for us but could be in certain situations. You can also really hear hallway noise but there’s not a lot of rooms so it’s not too bad or continuous. There was a guest book for people to leave their experience which I thought a really a nice touch, but no pen so couldn’t leave our experience. Generally felt safe but parking lot is kind of out of the way and there was no one around when we got back to the hotel after park close at 11 pm. The door between the main area & rooms has key access but was never locked. Checkout at 12 so that was nice. Overall a good experience.

Had a great stay, a little confusing if coming in late. Also wasn’t a fan of barn door bathroom door 😂
However we had an absolute great time there and the fireplace was awesome. I know I’m not giving a 5 star rating but I would absolutely stay here again.

The room was very nice, spacious, and comfortable. Staff was very friendly.
It had a very cozy feel with a bunch of small cute personal touches and free local alcohol. The room was very clean with one of exception listed below.
The rest of the complex was very fun and we even got free unlimited bowling with the room, this was a big benefit. There is ax throwing, horse betting, a full restaurant and bar, and lazer tag on the grounds.
Complaints: Under the couch had obviously not been cleaned in quite some time, took almost 2 hours to get a single coffee pod for our room, no curtains so bright lights from outside shined around the blinds all night, and staff began knocking to clean the room hours before checkout.
This was a very nice stay. I would definitely love to come back and try it again, but I really hope they get some curtains up ASAP!

Really enjoyed my interaction with the bar tender/inn host but other than that I don’t have anything I liked about the stay. The beds are super small and hard. 2 out of 3 bathroom lights were out, other people’s hair still on the bathroom floor. The wine glasses were not only dusty but had lipstick left on them from where they Weren’t actually cleaned properly the first time. Bed sheets and covers had blood stains on them, I called the desk to have my room cleaned and new sheets put on (took every cover off my self and put in a pile on floor with our dirty wet towels, just to make sure new ones were to be put on) I even laid the wine glasses down assuming they would replace them. They didn’t, same lipstick dusty wine glasses sat back up. Floors nor counter tops were cleaned. Could never seem to speak to a manager as to he never showed up at 8am like he was suppose to….. would not recommend and would not stay there again.

The room itself was great and very modern, but the bathroom could really use some work. It was old and dated. It was very clean, just like the room, but just old and off putting. I love the extras that they provide, like the bottle of wine and craft beers. The staff are very helpful and kind.

Cute boutique inn connected to restaurant and bowling..our family had a blast when we werent at cedar point.

Hotel room was clean and we liked the stable/rustic vibe that they were going for. The fold out “couch” which was really a futon was extremely uncomfortable, even for the kids. The vinyl flooring was coming unglued from the floor and the room smelled like we were staying over a tire factory. It did the trick and was close to Cedar Point. The check-in process was a little bit of a hassle. We had to leave the park and get the room key before 10pm which meant leaving the park early. Seems like a door code system would be a better solution for guests. I’d give this place a 7 out of 10!

We had a wonderful stay!! Check in was very smooth & simple. Room was very clean & tidy, and they even gave us complimentary beer, wine, and chocolate in the room. Beds were comfy & bathroom was stocked with everything we needed. The restaurant and food truck downstairs were perfect for dinner, and the bowling alley was a great addition to our stay as well! Highly recommend staying here. We will be back for sure!
