Fantastic spot to explore! The pool is operational and the bar just opened its doors today. The check-in staff were friendly, and my room was spotless. The gym was also very well-maintained, allowing me to enjoy a great workout. I met some lovely folks during my stay, and the food at the restaurant was quite good. I've heard they're planning a poolside rave in mid-June, and I can't wait to be part of it!
We had a great time there. There weren't many people and I don't see why because the restaurant has great food and the fishing was awesome. We will be going there again for sure
My family and I arrived Friday just after 8pm after a 4 hour drive from San Jose. We were starving and the restaurant staff were kind enough to take our family. My wife, children and I have had an amazing memorial Day weekend full of good food and a great outdoor ambience. Just wanted to take the time to say Thank you and we will be back
Totally run down, great location. You can totally imagine the families coming from the city in the 50's and 60's. Most buildings are closed, and the nature is taking over, but it's really cool and interesting to explore. Not a good place for lake swimming but does have a nice pool. Plan ahead for food! Options are very limited, and there's no doordash.
The remodeling is still going on. My brother lives just down the street, so we drove through and they were painting the stairs. Can't wait to stay here when they open back up.
I didn’t stay in a room there. I stayed at Willow Point RV Campground about 25 minutes away but spent three days in a row at the Konocti Harbor Resort. I went for a wedding. It was a wonderful place. We had great service and the food was good. It’s just a cool place to go see.
Great location, rooms are cute and have a great view. The resort has so much potential and I have no doubt it will be back to the way it was someday. My key wasn’t working for my room so that was kinda inconvenient but things happen. The pool is really nice and they have a great DJ. Food is really good but you do have to wait awhile for service unfortunately! The staff is very nice and they try to be very accommodating! The place has some work to be done but it has charm and it will just get better with time. Overall it’s a sweet lil gem! Looking forward to seeing it blossom.
We took our first trip to Konocti Harbor Resort and Spa on Saturday night. What a blast from the past! My husband and I had never been there before, but wow! You can feel the nostalgia everywhere you look. What an amazing place. I remember hearing about the concerts and spa when I was growing up, and it was definitely the place to be. I’m so happy they’re working on bringing it back to life, and I hope they can restore it to something close to what it once was. I truly can’t wait to see what they do with the place. The lobby was clean, and the pool area was beautiful. I love that you can get drinks poolside. We enjoyed a wonderful dinner at Andy’s Tavern. I had the ribeye with garlic mashed potatoes, mixed vegetables, and a small basil, tomato, and mozzarella salad. My husband had a bacon cheeseburger with all the fixings and French fries. Everything was delicious! The restaurant was clean, and the service was excellent. They had a live band scheduled from 8 to 11 p.m. playing jazz, R&B, soul, and Motown. We couldn’t stay for the show, but we were there during their sound check and wished they had been playing while we were eating dinner. It sounded fantastic. We can’t wait to go back!
