Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

Everything was amazing. We were impressed with all of it. The owners were so friendly and accommodating. It is clear they take pride in their place and want their customers to feel more like family. The property is tastefully done, clean and comfortable.

United StatesIt was the perfect location, just 20 minutes to the quaint town of Brookston, and 40 minutes to Purdue University, and had an added bonus of a gorgeous lake view! The 2-bedroom apartment where we stayed had everything we needed with plenty of space. Knowing that there is a convection oven, microwave, and refrigerator in the kitchen area, gave us the option of eating in. We appreciated the extra care in providing shampoo, conditioner, body wash, hair dryer, coffee, and even microwave popcorn! We especially enjoyed the outdoor seating with dock and fire pit to just relax and soak in the beautiful lake view. Lora and her husband, who manage and live on the property, greeted us when we got there and made sure we were settled and had everything we needed. They have done a beautiful job remodeling/updating the apartments and made us feel right at home. It was a terrific weekend trip!

United StatesPool was great. Room was clean and recently renovated. It's a short walk to Indiana Beach. I was glad to see the area seems to be going strong as this was a family vacation spot when I was a child. I was happy to introduce it to my grandkids. They loved every minute of it! It truly made my heart happy!

United StatesThis was our family's first time visiting, and we had a great time! Our cabin was either brand new or newly renovated, with clean comfy furniture and beautiful views of the lake. Our kids loved the pool, and we enjoyed having a fire pit to use at night. Because the resort has a convenience store and is a 2-minute walk from the amusement park, we never needed to pile into the car (and there was plenty of parking at the resort). Having a kitchenette in our cabin and a grill by the water saved us money on meals. We will definitely be back again!

United StatesI have no cons
The owners are absolutely beautiful people! They make sure that you are comfortable, they care, and they are kind. The purple suite we stayed in was perfect for a family of 5 or 6. Beautiful along with the balcony and views of Lake Shafer with a dock, paddleboat, firepit grills, places to sit and relax. Oh and the pool!! And their little convenient store for basic needs! Everything is nice and clean. My family will definitely be back! This is are happy lake place!!

United StatesThe owner herself is very very kind, however, the people she has on the property were the problem. Majority of the resort is still being renovated, so there’s construction happening. Upon working out a check in issue with the owner, I was met with a banging on my door and a random guy covered in paint and dust…eating a taco…asking me if I had checked in…He didn’t introduce himself, and I was alone with my children, so feeling very uncomfortable; I gave limited information. I’m assuming that was an employee who’s renovating but I have no idea why he thought that was acceptable. On top of that- a lot of the property reeked of weed. There was a patio outside of our room and multiple times throughout the stay, the smell was intense. By the pool, outside our room, inside the room when the air would turn on. I have no issues with what people do on their own time, but considering Indiana Beach is meant for children, and I had my asthmatic child with me- it was an issue. There were multiple issues with the AC unit, doors not shutting, handles being broken, and a CRAZY amount of bugs; especially in the bathroom. We stayed in the nicest option they had for a family of 5 and the stairs to get up and down were a lot, with a stroller, coolers, luggage…I absolutely could have missed the warning when booking, but at the end of a long day at the park; it’s a struggle to get everything down to the room unless you’re leaving things in the car instead. Again, the female owner couldn’t be nicer, but for the amount we paid, which was a lot for one night; there’s no reason we should have had the experience we did. Hopefully they make changes that would make us want to come back in the future.
Very close to the park, and I love that it was bought by a family who also loves Indiana Beach and wants to preserve the memories for future generations
