Hyatt Place Uncasville - Casino Area

10/10 Excellent

"Fast and easy check in, room was clean, and breakfast included a yogurt and fruit bar."

North Fork Resort

10/10 Excellent

"We loved our stay at the North Fork Resort. We would definitely recommend. Family & pet friendly to the max! Any hiccups we had with our stay were resolved without hesitation or annoyance by the staff. They were incredibly accommodating. The pool area was spacious and clean but the pool itself was a little chilly. It's a nice property to walk around with your family and/or pets. They have at least two doggy poop bag stations (that I noticed) located around the property in case you run out. They've seem to think of almost everything you could need. The only thing I could think of that would make the space better was a large garbage can outside of all the cabins. I noticed some had them but ours didn't. An overall wonderful experience!"
