Our family stayed at TanTarA in July 2009. We hesitated after reading negative reviews - but decided to try it. We did the 3 night/$99 deal and upgraded to a suite for $189/night and stayed in the estates area. We typically stay at 4 star hotels and we are very picky - but this place was clean and roomy and... more

Charges like a top resort but service and amenities are average to poor. Traveled with extended family first week of August 2009. We were promised suites together at booking but ended up in three different buildings when we checked in. Three days later were were all grouped in the same building. The rooms were just ok. They came with two... more

Front desk staff was rude and discourteous. They put our group of twelve with three little ones as far away from the main resort as possible even though we were told at booking we'd be in the main building. Seperated our 5 rooms into two different buildings, so another inconvenience, when there were rooms open. Our room looked like it... more

I stayed at Tan-Tar-A for a professional convention. It was supposed to be a two night stay - I refused to stay the second night! To put this in perspective, I used to be a fan of Tan-Tar-A. I have been a guest several times over the years, though my last stay was a number of years ago. That appears... more

Stayed in one of the "villas", lakeview. I am originally from this part of Missouri and decades ago Tan Tar A was a higher-end resort. Today, it is just ok (and that is only if you do not care at all about the accommodations and only care about being at the lake). This place is wildly out of date and... more

We stayed at this resort the first part of July 2009, and LOVED it!! There is so much to do just at the resort there is really no need to leave. This was our first time to the area and didn't know what to expect. I did alot of research and read alot of reviews prior to booking with Tan-Tar-A.... more

When we first arrived to check in it looked so nice & decorated for the 4th; we had our 2 soldiers in uniform with us. They were giving out 4th of July beads (at the valet parking desk??) out front where we pulled in but we didn't get any, so much for the patriotic 4th of July welcome we expected... more

Stayed here for 3 nights in late June. When we checked in we were given a room with a view of the marina & lake ... the building of the main lobby. It was sooooo musky, with an A/C that was way in over its head. I felt wet for the entire day we were in there! We had a... more

At one time this was probably one the best resorts anywhere...but that time has past. It has so much potential, but it really needs to be updated. The rooms are large, but the bathrooms are very small. My bathroom faucets needed to be replaced. There are tons of outdoor activities at the resort and several restaurants, but all could be... more
