3 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 May 2013 NEW

We spent a week at this resort and had great expectations, but it was disappointing. Although in a nice location, with many outdoor amenities (fishing, swimming, golf, horseback riding and more), they didn't seem to give much attention to guest satisfaction. We were never asked how we liked it, or provided a forum to make recommendations or comments, thus, this... More

Pool = The indoor pool during our stay had not been vacuumed in who knows how long. My husband and I were using a facemask and snorkel. As soon as some kids came and jumped in the water we were horrified at the amount of sediment that got stirred up. The indoor pool was comfortably warm at 87 degrees, and... More

friendly and quick check in, found rooms to be old and not updated for several years, old analog TV's in each room, no internet access in rooms, coffee pot took 45 minutes to make a pot of coffee. Water reaked of sulphur and chlorine smell, it stunk so bad you couldn,t hardly stand to take a shower. Several light bulbs... More

After reading the other reviews here, I wasn’t sure what we were in for, but it turned out to be okay. Yes, the condos are bit dated, but they were very clean. The resort offers many activities, which would be great in the summer months. Since we were here on this past thanksgiving, which was a pretty warm day by... More

Having recently stayed at the Silverleaf-Fox River Resort, I have to say our week was both 'Good and Bad'. Location is GOOD: Only an hour plus to most of the Chicagoland area and less than an hour to Ottawa where there are many good restaurants and some quaint shops. But is also BAD because you need to go to Ottawa... More

I used bonus time to spend two nights here recently. The unit was clean, beautiful, and located in a quiet, plesant location. I look forward to returning when I have an entire week to enjoy the facilities. The staff was very plesant; the guard at the entrance even offered to snap a photo of me at the entrance when he...

I really enjoyed my stay here! We stayed in a President suite (2 bed 2 bath) which had plenty of space for all four of us. Apartment was clean although could do with a lick of paint here and there. Yes the resort is an hour and a half away from Chicago but this should not reflect badly upon the... More

We chose to stay in this resort because it was centrally located for activities we were planning. Through RCI we traded for a two bedroom suite in the Presidents Lodge and the unit was very large and comfortable with two bedrooms and full baths. We drove in to Chicago (1 hour 15 minutes) and picked up our son and brought... More

We reserved two units through RCI and met my parents, two siblings, and their families for a summer getaway. We were put in one 2 BR 2 bath Presidents Lakeside unit and one 2BR 2 bath lodge unit. The Presidents unit was significantly more spacious and more updated. However, the Lodge unit, although smaller, was well appointed and had a... More
