    There is so much to do at the campground, mini golf, Gem mining, pools, water slides, several basketball courts and playgrounds. Let's not forget the arcade. The cabins are perfect for families. You are close to your neighbors, but we are all there for 1 reason our kids to have an awesome time. We took chalk with us and had all the neighbors and people driving by sign the street and the parade on a Tuesday was awesome. The food at the little snack kitchen was very good. Yes, this place can be expensive but the memories you create are for a lifetime.

    Todo bastante bien pero te exigen esperar asta las 3 de la tarde para darte la abitacion no te dejan entrar antes para disfrutar de la instalación los niños y al final estoy pagando el día entero y tengo que entrar a las 3 de la tarde y por la otra parte a las 11 de la mañana tengo que entregar la abitacion y salir de la instalación no puedo disfrutar todo el día es decir de 3 días que pague solo sifrute la instalación 24 horas solo 1 día

    Great family atmosphere. Fun times for everyone

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Shuttle service to Holiday World is very convenient.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    I loved the cabin, the location and the ambience. Hot water wasn’t enough for 6 people in a cabin that could sleep 10 but was sized for 6.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    The proximity to Holiday World The layout of the campground was difficult to navigate, especially at night

  • Engine customer May 2026

    The location. The golf cart. The shower didn't drain well. Had to stand in dirty water. Cockroaches.

  • Engine customer May 2026

    The entire atmosphere was on point. Relaxing, pumped up fun, for filling for ever age group that came. Just didn't have enough time to do everything available. Will try to return this weekend I didn't like that we didn't get a chance to experience all the amenities

  • Engine customer Sep 2025

    The Halloween celebrations were amazing!

  • Engine customer Sep 2025

    Lake Rudolph is a really good place to stay. Very nice cabins and well taken care of. Everyone at Rudolph is pretty much like family the people around you are really nice staying in cabins. Halloween weekends is a blast. We will be definitely coming back. It was our first time.

  • Engine customer Sep 2025

    Downsides are minimum 2-night stay and have to bring all linens & most kitchen stuffs but overall this place is a winner.

  • Engine customer Aug 2025

    Great place with amenities for families!

  • Engine customer Aug 2025

    The air conditioner was not conditioning and the cabin felt damp. When we arrived, there was trash and glass around the cabin that we had to clean up. The pool was a little dirty and someone got sick in front of the entrance of the bath house, and it was there overnight.

    The property was great! They had two really nice playgrounds for the kids. They also had a nice pool and kiddie pool. Loved that the pool had a large section that was only 3ft deep. My girls didnt even need floats. It was disappointing that the website didnt specify that the on site water park would be closed on friday and sunday. We went to holiday world on Saturday so we never got to play at the water park on site which we were really looking forward to, everything i read said itd be open daily during the summer season but apparently august, one of the hottest months of the year, doesnt count as the summer season. The busses were great and we loved being able to shuttle over to holiday world and shuttle back to our cabin. We got ice cream from the shop down by the pool and it was amazing! It was a HUGE cone and they had SO many flavors to choose from, the peanut butter banana was amazing! The cabins were nice to sleep in but thats about it, the wifi was awful, i couldnt use it to check email or anything because the connection was so poor. We couldnt watch TV at all in the living room due to the poor Wifi. We were able to watch tv in the bedroom that had a tv because it had cable. The only complaint i have is that the floors in the cabin was absolutely disgusting, no telling the last time it was mopped. My girls feet were jet black after walking around for less than 30 mins. I cleaned them thinking maybe they were dirty from outside, nope, jet black again after another 20.

    The resort has made numerous upgrades since our last stay in 2010. The staff was professional as well as friendly. The cabins were very clean and surprisingly spacious. The property grounds are maintained well and the amenities have expanded. The pool is a nice size (never felt crowded). The splash pad area is somewhat small, but a nice addition. There are water slides for different heights. We enjoyed decorating our rented golf cart for the golf cart parade as well as many activities in the activity center, my granddaughter enjoyed making a tie dye shirt! We will be returning to Lake Rudolph next summer, it was a wonderful experience!

    Nothing

  • Engine customer Aug 2025

    Bring your own blankets and towels for the cabins. We had a great time lots of things to do on site.

  • Engine customer Jul 2025
