The November season at the Skillet.
Al M.

This is Indiana...unvarnished and unpretentious...offering honest, hearty, down-home food just steps off the interstate. Stopped in at the Skillet for a quick lunch while traveling on business in the Hoosier state. Once seated, my co-worker and I were welcomed by the manager with a genuinely warm Indiana greeting and smile. Very nice touch! Other restaurants would be well served to take a page out of the Iron Skillet's book. Nice people here in the Heartland. My co-worker and I decided to jump for the bountifully stocked salad bar and lunch buffet as soon as we saw the roasted chicken and real mashed potatoes. Serving ourselves on pewter skillets doubling as plates, we loaded up for what promised to be a lunch that delivered big on both food and service...well in excess of Yelp's paltry 2.5 composite rating when we walked through the door (based on just 3 Reviews). It is satisfying knowing that as I post this 4-star review, the Skillet's overall Yelp rating will climb to a solid 3 stars. To me, the Skillet was nothing less than a 4-star experience all day long.

Salad bar and buffet is pitiful, food was dry and stale. Order of the menu and stay away from the buffet.

The historic rioms are adorable but the beds are small and not meant for 2 adults well. I loved…read morebeing able to open the windows old school style and hear the birds and feel the morning breeze. The pool was great but the one hot tub was always packed with kids and has a six person limit so tough to enjoy with such a large resort. The docks are managed by the DNR so first come first serve, but if staying at the inn, you can park your watercraft's overnight. The buffet on Saturday was really bad and the service okay but it was a buffet. They ran out of food with over an hour left and didn't refill part of it. You can't order from the menu on Saturday either, only their buffet and it was $18.99 and overpriced for what you got. You also have to pay just to get to the in through the park which was another $15 for out of state visitors.

We have been to this Inn many times over the years and decided to celebrate our 25th wedding…read moreanniversary for one night in a Patio Suite. We arrived early, but we were told that the room was not ready. This was a Tuesday and the Inn seemed to be mostly empty. We tried again at 4:00, which is the stated check-in time. Still not ready. We watched as several people came and checked in with no issues ahead of us. Finally, we were able to check in at 4:30. We had pre-ordered a bottle of white wine for our room to celebrate, however, by the time we got into the room, all the ice had melted and the wine was warm. The rooms are so old with dirty carpeting and dusty furniture. The bedroom TV is streaming only and the Wi-fi is not good at all, so it was useless. We used to have a lot of fun in the arcade, however, it has been completely changed and is an absolute joke. Half of the machines were unplugged or not working and they no longer take quarters. We walked around some of the park and found the trails to be completely overgrown in a lot of areas. We went to the dining room around 7:00pm. They were completely understaffed to the point that someone who usually works in the kitchen turned out to be the only server, busser and host....she was doing everything by herself. When we ordered a 2 glasses of wine with dinner, we were told there wasn't anyone old enough to pour alcohol! Are you kidding!?! I would like to say one positive thing. The server, I believe her name was Gabby, was the only employee in the entire Inn that was pleasant and did as good of a job as she possibly could have. Our history and relationship with the Potawatomi Inn may have come to an end....sadly.
