Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort
The hotel was very nice a bit out of date and a little expensive, but it was on an island, the staff was great and let my family who was camping use the pool. Since it was the only choice on Kelly’s Island I would stay agian.
The room was very spacious and slept up to six in real beds. We loved that there was a separate upstairs with two beds, large closet and sitting area. The location was super convenient to both town and the West Bay Inn for sunsets.
I love everything about this place, the view, accessibility to near by restaurants, rooms were huge, and the most important and awesome thing was the best sunset views I have ever saw is just 30 meters away from my room
We loved our stay. Our hotel room was PERFECT in every way. The water was across the street and we enjoyed sitting in the adirondack chairs watching the waves. I would definitely recommend Kelleys Island Venture Resort to friends and family.
We enjoyed our resort room so much that we booked an extra night‼️Our room was very large and comfortable and our view was perfect. Management was extra nice and accommodating from check in to check out. We look forward to staying here again.
The hotel is right on the lake with pool and lake views from every room. It’s clean, has friendly staff, & everything you need. Great location. My kids loved it. Will be back!
Beautiful property with a pool. Our room was a suite with a sofa bed in the separate room. Microwave and fridge in room. Just cleaned prior to arrival.
We stayed in April for the eclipse, so it was preseason. I would love to come visit during the summer when the island will be in full swing. The accommodations are a bit dated but clean, and in a great location with a biew of the lake.
Absolutely doesn ’t not worth what I paid for ( $400 for night) I don’t know even why it is calling Resort because it’s like cheap motel small stinky dirty dusty room just waste of money
What a great value offseason. Lovely room, convenient to the ferry etc. Not a lot of staff onsite given the season but it was all good!

We loved the room with three queens and the view was fabulous!! We are definitely re-booking before end of summer. They even accommodated storing our electric bikes!!! So nice staff!
The “only” annoying thing was a loud noise from pool filter nonstop….was hard to tolerate with the beautiful setting 🙁
