Webbs Resort

Mayville

My wife and I stayed at Webb's on a return trip from the Upper Peninsula in Michigan to our home in Maine.   We have spent some time in the Chautauqua area over the years and picked Webb's for a one-night stay.    We had played at its miniature golf course before and had shopped in the candy shop on previous trips.   

My wife was spending the day at nearby Lily Dale Assembly, so I drove to Mayville to check in.   There was nobody at the front desk, and I had to dial for help on a nearby phone.   The place was eerily quiet -- almost like a ghost town (no tumbleweed!).   I did enjoy spending my wait for the staff to arrive by looking at the photographs of celebrities who had stayed at the resort in previous years.

I had a first floor room that was clean and comfortable.  We slept well, and despite the   fact that Webb's is on a busy highway, were not bothered by any traffic noise.   The property was within walkable distance to the local park, ice cream stand, and several other eateries located on Chautauqua Lake.  We resumed our miniature golf competition with an evening round.   And the front lobby has several comfortable chairs, which made for a great place to sit and read a book.

What was sad, however, is that I had a sense that Webb's had seen better days.   The vending machines were essentially empty, and there were very few staff members on the property.   It was extremely quiet -- no complaints, mind you -- but I kept getting the impression that the place had seen better times.

I would stay at Webb's again, but it is a place that has probably had its most prosperous days behind it.  

Clean and Comfortable (but a Relic of the Past)

We’ve had good meals here in years past. This time was so. disappointing. The grilled cheese sandwich was burned black on one side. The beef on wick was served on a soaking wet bun. The watermelon slices were delicious, tho. The service was excellent and timely.

Skip this spot.

Disappointing, jacuzzi in room very slow fill, then did not work, dated a open window between bar
Th and bed area covered by a shower curtain, no working tv. Clean but hard bed. Needs updating, nice inside pool. No breakfast. Will stay next door next time. Cheep room get what you pay for.

Quick stay

While the resort has a nice location, it seems like it has seen better days and needs some updates all around. Similar to previous guests, there often isn't someone at the desk and you need to call for checkin or if anything is needed. There was not housekeeping during our stay or notes about it. It felt older throughout and weird to see empty vending machines. It does have a pool but we overheard a guest asking to find the desk because the bathroom area had issues/not cleaned. The beds were rather nice in our room, better than most places but the entire bathroom had issues with toilet running, sink and bathtub leaking and the tub/shower being rusty looking near the drain because of it so apparently has been for awhile. Overall, it was not worth the price paid and was a little weaker than places you'd normally find for half the price.

Weathered resort at this point

Stopped at the candy shop on a bus tour. Most people on the bus seemed to want the hand dipped ice cream. Had a small assortment of chocolates and a gift shop area. Did have cold drinks. Would be a place to stop at prior to or just after the Institute for a snack. Nice view of the lake from where we were. Could enjoy a cone and watch the boats etc.

Candy Shop only visited.

First time dining here, almost the last. I have never been greeted by a hostess as unfriendly as this hostess. We almost left. Someone should teach her how to be welcoming.  Luckily our server made up for the hostesses rude welcoming . My husband and I enjoyed the food for lunch, especially the clam chowder. Would eat here again 

Rude hostess, get food

Janel and Darel were nothing but gracious and accommodating. The hotel is old but clean and comfortable. Our private balcony had a nice view of the lake.  We enjoyed playing mini golf and the access to unlimited coffee from the keurig station off the lobby was appreciated!
Would definitely stay here again and would recommend it to anyone wanting a nice quiet place to stay near the lake!

Very Enjoyable Stay

The hotel has growen stale . 
We arrived to find no personnel  anywhere in the building, we had to use a curtesy phone hanging on the wall that was always busy.  We had to go to the candy store next door to talk to someone so we could check in.  
We  reserved a second floor room with balcony.  We had to climb an outdoor narrow staircase with extremely worn out rug and when we got to the seond floor the door into the hotel wa wide open, no key needed to get into the entire building.  
The room was clean with old furnishings except for the TV.  
The balcony screen door was off its runners on its base, and the balcony was not cleaned.  
They offered food at their restaurant at very high prices.  Many other local restaurants at reasonable prices.  
Last stayed there 20 years ago and what we encountered lead us to believe we might not stay there in the future.

Resent visit

We stayed here two nights in October 2020.  I am allergic to mold and had continual sneezing and runny nose all the time I was in my room.  It took me three tries on the second day to actual get management to come to the hotel so I could pay my bill!  The bathroom especially was very  outdated.  I was willing to try this "resort" because it was a family run place with a neat history.  However, it seemed to me that the current generation working here has little desire to keep the place up, let alone to be welcoming at all to their paying customers!

Beware if Allergic to Mold!

Room was ok..old and not updated for years. On a holiday weekend you would think someone would be at the front desk. Waited 10 minutes for check in. No one answering the phone.  The shower screeched a high pitch noise when running. We were there 3 nights. No service at all. No coffee refills, no clean towels bedds made, or trash emptied. No one at check out on a Sunday morning!! Had to call and was told to leave the keys on the desk. No receipt.  Called when I got home to have one emailed.  Poorly managed if managed at all. Will never stay there again even thought I visit the area frequently
