A beautiful and peaceful place to recharge
The Peaks of Otter is a peaceful place to spend quiet time and recharge. Plenty of hiking and outdoor options are easily assessable. The restaurant is quaint and service is good. Zack was our waiter and provided excellent service at Dinner. The Breakfast Buffet was OK, but it was apparent the waitress needed better support from the hostess and kitchen staff. She was replenishing the buffet herself when 3 cooks sat inside and would not take care of making sure the Buffet was stocked with fresh food. Truly a lack Of team work for breakfast. Because the waitress had to do It all, meant she could not provide better service. She did the best she could and with a smile on her face! Bravo to her. But lack of leadership and team work was noticed in making breakfast a better experience and supporting the waitress on the floor. She had energy and enthusiasm. Hostess barely lifted a finger to help. The overall stay was good.

Beware.
No fitted sheets on the bed. Dirty towel hanging in bathroom. Bugs in the bathroom when we got up. Couldn’t get out of there quick enough. Only stayed the 1 night of our 3 night stay.

The restaurant menu did not match up with the site and not as good as I would think, needs to be revamped. There is no refrigerator in the rooms and I’d highly recommend that.

The property is super outdated and smells of mold, it is like going to a summer camp and has concrete block interior walls and furniture that looks homemade and very cheaply built! Just overall an unpleasant experience for sleeping, the landscaping and outdoor property is beautiful but the moment you step into your room everything feels so different! Not worth the expensive price for a one night stay!

Always a peaceful quiet place to visit. Love sitting by the lake visiting with friends. The rooms need sprucing u as far as cleanliness. Bathroom tiles, floor boards and blinds needed a good cleaning. We had the breakfast buffet about an hour or so after it started. The eggs and potatoes needed replacing. The gravy was delicious but lukewarm. This is the second time we have had the buffet and both times it was like this. Yesterday was Father’s Day and they were super busy but the waitress was great and everyone’s dinner was good. Not much traffic for breakfast the next morning so maybe make smaller batches and refresh the buffet more often. All the staff throughout were nice and professional.
