Mohonk Mountain House Review

The rambling Victorian-era hotel—a jumble of towers, chimneys, porches, and turrets—sits at the edge of a mountaintop lake. The resort's 2,200 acres encompass private woodland and elaborate gardens and overflow with options for recreation, including 85 mi of hiking trails. Antiques fill the guest rooms, which are luxurious and spacious. Choice accommodations in the towers have original Victorian woodwork, wood-burning fireplaces, and balconies. Your room rate includes three meals daily, plus afternoon tea and cookies. Breakfast and lunch are buffet-style; dinner is a formal affair (men may want to wear jackets). Four self-catering cottages, which sleep four to six people, are also available and include full kitchens.

2010 Fodor's 100 Hotel Award Winner

Located in the scenic Hudson Valley, this Victorian castle is an idyllic resort for a family getaway. In summer, guests hike on the property's 85 miles of trails, explore the Victorian garden maze, and swim in the lake and pool. In winter they cross-country ski, ice skate, and snow tube. And if Mom and Dad are looking for couples time in the spa or at a restaurant, kids stay entertained at the complimentary, supervised kids' club.
