My stay at Big Cypress Lodge was a mix of very nice service and some drawbacks. The friendly staff made me feel welcomed, especially with the nightly delivery of warm cookies, which was a good touch! However, I encountered some issues with cleanliness in my room that detracted from the experience. Overall, it was a unique and nice stay amidst the charm of the pyramid, but there’s room for improvement.

I loved my spacious Premier King room with a balcony overlooking the unique indoor store. The beds were extremely comfortable, and the tub was huge, perfect for relaxation. However, there were cleanliness issues that needed attention, which was disappointing.

The staff provided excellent customer service throughout my stay. From the valet to the front desk, everyone was friendly and accommodating. Jason, the bellman, was particularly helpful during check-in. Unfortunately, my experience at the Uncle Buck's dining area was quite the opposite, with unhelpful staff that made ordering a frustrating affair.

While the idea of having dining options within the hotel was appealing, Uncle Buck's service left much to be desired. The food quality was inconsistent, and I found the atmosphere darker than what was advertised, which really affected the overall dining experience.

The amenities offered were fantastic, with activities such as bowling and shopping right on-site. I also enjoyed the nightly cookie delivery and the rustic lodge atmosphere, though I did wish for more attentive service at the dining venues.

My stay at Big Cypress Lodge was quite the mixed bag. The location is truly unique and the rooms are nice, but I faced several frustrating issues during my visit. While the atmosphere was neat, dining options could definitely use improvement, and the customer service left something to be desired. Overall, it was nice, but not entirely in a good way.

I enjoyed my spacious ADA room, but there were no accessible power outlets near the bed for my medical equipment. It felt inconvenient, but the room itself was well-designed.

Service

I'd say the service was a hit or miss—some staff were helpful, while getting assistance from the front desk was frustrating. I often ended up on hold or unsure if I'd get a callback.

Location

The hotel has a captivating theme being in a pyramid and near Bass Pro, but the view from my room was underwhelming, mostly looking at the parking lot.

Dining at Wahlburger Wild was disappointing. I paid quite a bit for an overcooked burger with no sides, and I left feeling still hungry. The limited dining choices didn't help either.

Facilities

The amenities like the bowling alley and the free shuttle service were pretty cool, but I didn't find the food options up to par, which detracted from the overall experience.
