Great location and beautiful grounds. The rooms were clean and had everything we needed. Matt, who checked us in was beyond friendly and went over everything we needed to know. The breakfast was better than I expected- nice variety with healthy options.

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.

The staff was very friendly and informative. When we ran into a small issue with our room, they compensated us with a reduced room rate, since it couldn't be fixed during our stay.
