Always a pleasure
I'm giving my review this title because the Inn was built by Stan Musial of the St. Louis Cardinals back in the day. I've gone through a lot of the reviews here, and I'm going to say that I feel that the Inn, it's owners and the staff have gotten a lot of bad reviews because of the actions of other guests. I'm not going to mention those reviews here. Although, I will say that some of them are more than a few years old.
While the Inn has been around Osage Beach for a while, the current staff and owner are doing more than their best when it comes to providing for the guest's comfort and value for the dollars that they spend at the Inn. The staff has always been friendly to me, the front desk has never kept me waiting for more than thirty seconds, unless it's check out time and they are swamped. I can understand that. Frankly, I love going to the Inn. I enjoy being around the staff and the people that I'm there to work with as part of the reason that I'm there.
Yes, some of the rooms were sub par. Staff and Maintenance have been working to bring the Inn up to current standards. The pool may be a few floors down from the bottom floor. But from what I can see, it's optimally placed, what given the face that the Inn is providing a backdrop on an artificial lake. But the Inn was built at a time when people were more active than the nominal couch potato is today. But the staff realizes that, and they accommodate people with needs getting down to and back up from the pool.
In contrast to the other reviews given about the Inn I feel that the owners and staff have done an excellent job with maintaining the Inn. This resort was built by Stan Musial and the current staff have done a quality job at making it even better than it was.
