Customer Reviews
We have a international motorcycle rally every two years with our group of Suzuki Cavalcade owners during the middle of September 2016. This was my first time in the Land Between the Lakes area and it was a good are to ride bikes. When I first arrived at Ken Bar Lodge I was wondering if we picked the right place since it didn't look like a place we normally stay. It looked like an older place that needs a little TLC. Check in was you had to call or find the manager on a Sunday afternoon but after a few minutes somebody pointed Tracy out to me. She checked me in and explained everything. The room had a comfortable bed and room overall was needing some care but it was a good place to sleep and take a shower since I don't spend much time in the room. AC worked very good and had a TV and
We had a week long motorcycle rally at KenBar, and the experience was AWESOME. ||||The Suzuki Cavalcade owner's group has held many rallies throughout the country over the years, with members from all over the US and Canada coming. We've stayed at some really nice places too. ||The entire staff at Ken Bar was by far the best yet - only place we've gotten on first name basis with them!!||||Yes, the building itself has some rough edges, but they are working to revitalize it. It's huge, so this is understandably a slow process, especially for an American owner trying to do it honestly. ||||Rooms are clean, as are the meeting rooms and restaurant/ bar. Food is very good & reasonably priced. Quickly responsive to special requests and needs. ||Spacious level parking lot. Camping & cabins n
The employees and managers that I dealt with during my stay couldn't have been more hospitable! My room was clean, smelled fresh, clean linens and towels, everything was just clean! Even the folks that have extended arrangements were courteous. There is a new restaurant, bar, and dance floor! We enjoyed the Karaoke the first night (some impressive locals) and the live music on the second night! I highly recommend this place for an enjoyable stay close to the lake!
Actually I have lived here before and am currently staying here short term staff is top tier they have helped myself and some other people with fixed income be sheltered for minimum fee and I don't have any issues with my overall experience for the money you can't go wrong it is older and does have its share of shortcomings but all in all not to bad it's quiet here by 10 pm save for the weekend as the bar is open Thursday through Saturday maybe Sunday not sure about. I'd say overall 6.5/7 out of 10.
This place gets 2 stars because the American owners are trying to make it nice. I was on a cross country motorcycle trip with friends and stayed here one night. The good points are that if you are a boater it is close to the lake, pets are welcome, and the price is low. There are flowers growing and bird feeders hanging about, but the fact is that this old place is on its last legs. Don't stay if you are the least bit fussy about details. It provides a low priced sleep and not much more.
