Shawnee Inn and Golf Resort

The resort was beautiful but we had a slight inconvenience while checking out. We had booked our room through ******* but the resort did not get the reservation. Due to this reason,during check in we were given a different room for one day and the staff asked us if we could move to a different room for the next two days. We agreed but we were not informed about an additional cost for the room shift. So when we were checking out this was news to us and it would have been better if the staff had informed us beforehand about the extra charge.

It was built in 1911 and the property is really cool, but they have done a poor job at updating and keeping up with regular maintenance. The Delaware lodge is gross. Room renos were done in 2022, but the building was in bad shape with roof leaks and water damage on ceilings and walls. We moved to the Main Inn. There the hallways smelled, the drop ceilings were dingy and had water damage, the carpets were tattered, and they painted over wallpaper that is peeling. Once in the room, it had a renovated bath, flooring, paint, and new headboards. A coffee maker, big TV, and small fridge were provided. The beds were new and comfortable. On first impression the room looked nice, but after sitting in it for a while we noted the poor quality workmamship in the painting. There was paint on the picture frames, curtains, windows and moldings. Our air conditioning went out after midnight on our last night, making for a miserable sleep. Walls throughout the Inn were beat up and chipping everywhere and there was paint all over the restaurant floor where it was obvious no drop clothes were used. We tried to enjoy a fire outside and staff refused to give more wood just before 10:00. The Italian food was amazing, front desk staff was accommodating, and hotel staff great. Golf got rained out and rain checks were given. There is potential for this resort to be amazing and I know it was in its heyday, but they need to hire a new painter and pay better attention to small details.

It was our first visit and it was fabulous! The staff is friendly and the food was amazing. Loved seeing all of the pictures and decor. Highly recommend going to the Shawnee Inn.
