This was my third stay at Minnewaska lodge. I always love it. The rooms are comfortable and quiet, the bath products are lovely smelling, and there is plenty of room in the dining/sitting area and outside by the firepit to relax and socialize or read . The staff are always friendly and go above and beyond. The private woodland setting is a wonderful base for visiting the area.

Friendly staff

The people running the place were fantastic. The room was clean but dated. The bed constantly creaked and the one time I needed to hang clothes up there was no rod to hang them on. The tv remote only worked in one spot because of how they installed the box. All and all I liked the place and it was close to where I needed to be.

We could not have been happier with our stay at Minnewaska Lodge. We traveled here from the west coast for a wedding and made the absolute right choice to stay a little off the beaten path- that being said Minnewaska was super conveniently located to small towns with good restaurants and the hiking trails. The view at the hotel itself cannot be beat. Bed and breakfast vibes with a touch of luxury! If you are staying in the area this is a must. Breakfast included with round the clock coffee and freshly baked cookies. Couldn’t recommend more.
