Admiral's Cove Resort

Girls weekend-The restaurant’s food was PHENOMENAL! The fun choices, price and quality were SO good🙌🏼. We stayed for the live band & had a blast!!

Admirals Cove is a great little spot. Super close to Lake Mac. Staff is wonderful to work work with. Camping spots are clean as well as the rooms. I will definitely be back.

Right on the beach! I wanted a place that was right on the beach so we could walk out with the kids and spend the day there. If that's what you are looking for, this is great place! The restaurant is sub-par in terms of good food though. No breakfast was served on the weekends but they offered brunch. The brunch started at 10am which delayed our day waiting for them to open. Eggs were super dry and the sausage was "pre-fab" meaning it was the kind you don't really have to cook. The bacon I couldn't eat. Hubby got biscuits and gravy. SOS is better but it was convenient. Because of the poor breakfast experience, we didn't eat dinner there so I can't really review the other food.

The room was okay. The dishes were dirty in the cabinets so that was a disappointment. Did have a mixing bowl so I had to use a small bowl to mix up our pancake mix. No whisk. Yes, I expected basic kitchen items. The pans are old Teflon pans and were rusted in some parts. It is required to wash the dishes prior to departure and we had a sponge and soap to do so but only one cloth for drying/wiping. With the office closed on Sunday morning, this was a surprise and we did the best we could.

The cabins are old and need some work but it was relatively clean. The worst part of the stay was we couldn't sleep because the cabin attached had people in it that let their toddler scream. I suspect they put their toddler in the room and closed the door. They never tended to the child to shush them so as not to disturb other patrons. Either that, or they were abusing the child because the kid would just scream for 30+ minutes several times throughout the night and early morning. Don't expect to sleep late. The curtains on the windows are basically see-through so the early sun shines through. After a long night with a screaming baby, this was an insult to injury.

There was no water pressure in the bathroom sink. It dribbled out. The toilet ran most of the time. The shower handles are so old it was difficult to adjust the temperature.

The people were nice and welcoming so I give it 3 stars. It wasn't an awful stay and no, I don't need 5-star but the pictures online don't adequately share what you get. I am thankful they had working A/C since the temp was over 100 degrees although on the lake like this, it never felt that hot. I am shocked this is a wedding venue but to each their own. I do appreciate the roof over our head and that they could accommodate our large family in one cabin. The fact that they were on the beach made it worth it.
