Not a BAD place, just a little outdated in some areas. It serves its purpose as a place to sleep. And the views on the beach are gorgeous! The restaurant has really good food! Im Always impressed when I eat there. More

My daughter and I went here as a quick get away. The hotel had just suffered major damage from a severe storm. The pool area had been destroyed due to the storm, but it did not hamper our good time. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The room was a bit dated but clean and welcoming. We ate in... More

I can't thank Illinois Beach Resort enough. I went and toured the site Fall 2010, looking for a place to hold our family reunion (50+ people coming from 7 states) the next summer. The resort is absolutely beautiful and relaxing - and their staff seemed knowledgeable and helpful. I decided this would work for us - quiet and relaxing location... More

I am at the resort for my daughter's Navy graduation and what a disappointment it has been. If it were not for us being gone from the hotel for so many hours during our stay I would have moved to another hotel. This place is a far cry from being a resort. I can see when it was newer (I... More

I've just returned from a whole weekend conference at this facility, and I think it's important to warn other travelers. There was mold in my bathroom. Although the towels had been washed, there were residual dirt and lipstick stains on them. The room smelled odd partly because the windows are sealed shut in all rooms on one side of the... More

If you hold an event there make sure they give you the specifics of their insects. Also, meet the contact person you booked the event with as that person was never introduced at the event. Terrible and poor service. What a shame because I can see that the only reason why people book events there is because of the place.... More

Dear Guest, I am very sorry for this disappointing experience. This is certainly not the usual Illinois Beach Resort standard. I would highly appreciate if you can get in touch with me directly in order for me to try and rectify this experience and perhaps change your perspective about The Illinois Beach Resort and Conference Center.

I needed a break and spent a few days at Illinois Beach Resort. Enjoyed a massage, lots of time on the beach, and the restaurant was great. Any staff members I interacted with were very helpful. I will definitely go back again. Perhaps next spring. . . The fall was wonderfully crisp and cool, resort was not full, so it... More

I stayed here for 3 days and 2 nights. It was the best! Great Food, Reasonably priced, and the accommodations were excellent. Staff was friendly and attentive. The resort is right by the beach. I could see Lake Michigan from my room. The pool was very relaxing. I highly recommend staying here. I can't wait to get back! More
