Tranquil Spa Experience

I recently indulged in the His & Hers Spa package at Oglebay, and it was the most relaxing experience I've had in a long time. The 50-minute treatment was pure bliss, setting the perfect tone for our anniversary getaway. I felt rejuvenated and ready to enjoy the rest of our stay. It's a must-try for anyone looking to escape for a bit!

Delicious Prime Rib Dinner

I had the pleasure of dining at the Prime Rib Dinner during our stay, and it exceeded all my expectations. The variety of choices was impressive, and the view while dining made the experience even more special. It's the perfect way to finish a day filled with activities and relaxation, and I can't recommend it enough!

Family Fun at the Zoo

We brought our two-year-old to experience the Festival of Lights and were thrilled to discover the fun kids' zone at the zoo. The lights, train, and themed activities were a total hit! Watching my child’s face light up with joy made our stay even more nice. I highly recommend bringing the family for a fantastic time!

Cozy Lakeside Room

During our stay, we were treated to a spacious Lakeside room that offered stunning views and a beautifully appointed space. The gas fireplace added a cozy touch, and the large bathroom with a soaking tub was just what I needed after a long day of exploration. I can't wait to return to this lovely setting!

I had a fantastic time at Wilson Lodge at Oglebay Resort for a wedding. The accommodations were clean and the staff were incredibly helpful. I felt comfortable with the COVID-19 precautions in place, which made me feel safe. The only downside was we didn't get to use any amenities other than the beautiful grounds, but I would definitely return.

Our stay at Oglebay was absolutely delightful! The resort offers a stunning mix of activities for families, making it a perfect getaway. We enjoyed the beautiful indoor pool and the serene environment surrounding the resort. However, our visit was mostly for a family reunion, so we didn't get to explore all the amenities as much as we would have liked. The only downside was that the cottage we stayed in had a couple of minor missing items that could have improved the experience.

I had a fantastic weekend at the resort, particularly enjoying the stunning Christmas decorations and magical atmosphere. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, perfect for a family getaway. The dining options varied, with the breakfast being less impressive than the dinner experience. However, the beautiful pool area and relaxing amenities made it all worthwhile. I will definitely return for more family traditions, but staying in an updated room is a must.

6.0/10

We were really looking forward to this stay, especially for family activities, but unfortunately, it didn't meet our expectations. The location is beautiful and there are plenty of entertaining options on-site, but the accommodations need serious attention, especially for cleanliness and comfort. Dining options were decent, yet pricey and the service during check-in was frustrating. It has potential, but currently, it may not be worth the price tag.

We had a wonderful time at the resort, especially with the spacious Premium Cottage that accommodated our large family gathering beautifully. There were fun activities available, and the staff was incredibly accommodating. However, we had a disappointing experience with the cleanliness of our room upon arrival and faced long wait times during our New Year’s Eve stay.
