Disliked: Amenities
Staff are lovely. Enthusiastic. Friendly. Grounds are nice. Quiet and peaceful with a short walking trail. We were there mid June and the staff raved about the swimming hole. The water was freezing. Not sure who would be brave enough to swim in the river. Rooms are dated although the staff say they updated but kept the original look. Large enough room but no where to put 2 suitcases except on the bed. No table in the room for dining or writing. Bathroom was updated though. All common areas, including the main lounge are musty. The biggest issue with this place is the dining room. The menu is very limited. 4 entree options that come with just the piece of meat. Sides are extra. The pasta option was unedible. The 2 veg options, snowpeas and asparagus were quite good. Meal was $140 No dessert. . Wine was ' $20 a glass. The mini bar sold a small bag of popcorn for $7 when the high end coffee shop nearby sold it for $3. The dining room does not open till 8 am. No place to get coffee beforehand. We even told staff we were early risers and wanted to be hiking before 8. Still no coffee provided. There is nothing close by. We had to drive 1/2 hour away to get coffee at 7 and then drive a half hour back to go hiking. We picked this spot for its proximity to the trails. But unless you either want to drive out of your way or wait till late to hike, we would not suggest this place. Better. To stay where you can get some breakfast earlier and drive to the trails.

Excellent for a short, relaxing getaway.

The staff was terrific -- friendly, down-to-earth, and helpful! The room was clean. The comfortable room and the soaking tub were the highlights of the trip, as was the sauna. A room with a view and soaking tub is highly recommended. The rooms and shared spaces are beautiful, warm, and smell very good. We took advantage of the pool table, free bowling, hiking trails, and the previously mentioned-amenities. The on-site restaurant called "The Dining Room" was not worth the money, as the meals we had were sparse, not all that good, lacked side dishes, lacked bread service. Aside from that, the lodge provided a relaxing weekend getaway. Oh, and the grounds were well-kept, and provided beautiful views!

The property is beautiful and really a great place to unwind. I did think the hostess was slightly off with us. She said she was going to give us a tour on check in but eventually found out she did not (she just walked us to our room) and she actually was not very forthcoming with giving a description of the property and what the property offers as part of the welcome. In fact as we were leaving we then accidentally found out about other amenities. The hostesses didn’t seem as knowledgeable about giving ideas of things to do around the area - contrary to what’s advertised on the website. We had dinner at the Dining Room - food was great except they served the fries that came with the burger cold - not expected for a place charging $35 for a burger. They did replace the fries when we asked. The rest of the food we ordered was good. The other drawback was the robes in the room. They are actually super cool looking but the fabric itches a lot. Other than that it really is a cool property and the rest of the staff were good.

I would give 6 stars if I could. I have never been treated by staff so kindly at a hotel. We were immediately welcomed with warm smiles, complementary drinks and sat by the fire to enjoy them. Room was clean and decor was fun and unique. The outdoor tub was my favorite. Before I left I already planned on coming back for the fall season to do some hiking around the area and look at the fall foliage. I recommended this place to all my friends. I have been upstate at least three times a year for the past decade, this experience was by far the most unique and enjoyable.
