“Oakwood Resort impresses more on the outside, where Lake Wawasee views truly shine. While the historic building shows its age in places, the lakeside setting and variety of activities make it appealing, especially for families. I think its location offers a balance of nature and convenience, near enough to larger cities for day trips but secluded enough for relaxation.”
