The property is almost 100 years old with lots of history. It has been recently renovated and done well. It is right on the lake with lots of outdoor sitting and a pier. The staff are all very friendly and you can tell they enjoy working there. The restaurant was nice with delicious food. The reason for not giving 5 stars all across is because the renovation was done to restore to the original so the rooms are small and the bed was not overly comfortable. Though they did have robes which is one my favorite things. It was definitely nice to stay for one night and experience the property.

This is a unique property with a lot of character and history. Rooms were spacious and we had an upgrade because we were the only people there. The A/C and heat units being the ones that vent out the window were very loud. No elevator so dragging luggage up the stairs was a little tough. Overall, very nice place to stay. It is just older but has a lot of charm. The staff was super nice! Brought water to our rooms, made coffee in the morning and helped with our luggage when we departed.

Through no fault of the property, we didn't have enough space in our room (they indicated that the room fit 4 people comfortably, and it did in theory but our 2 boys were too large to share the queen size fold out). Instead of saying there was nothing they could do, they remedied the problem by assuring we had enough space. The beds were comfortable, and we enjoyed the on-site restaurant (the burger was one of the best I've ever had). I would say this is not an ideal hotel for larger families since they indicated that the maximum numbers of beds in each room is 1 a fold out couch, and while each room in theory comes with breakfast, it is based on a comp of $37.99 per room against anything you order at breakfast time. We ordered 1 breakfast platter (eggs, sausage, hashbrowns, toast) an order of french toast for the 4 of us to share, and it wasn't enough food and if we were to have ordered 4 entrees for the table it would have been well over $37.99. The food was delicious though, so no complaints on taste! However, my spouse & I both agreed that we would stay here again if it was just the 2 of us. Very quiet, and has a bit of a romantic vibe.

we love the lake and the quaint inn. The restaurant staff are very young and sweet but new at waiting tables for example coffee comes without cream or sugar unless you ask. The food is pricey but the view is great the main course did not come with a salad for example fancy mac n cheese but nothing else. The lake is pristine but the ladder into the water was wonky and needed the first step repaired. the room is cute. It’s very relaxing there. The breakfast was great.

Wonderful blast from the past resort on the lake. Right next to the old time Catskill resort featured in The Marvelous Mrs Maisel. Peaceful and quiet time.

Historic gem with breathtaking views
A historic gem, recently reopened, that still preserves much of the flavor, aesthetic, and whimsical delight of the 1928 original. We loved the arts and crafts furniture, woodwork, and architectural details. The staff were kind and considerate. It was hot when we visited and the small portable air conditioners were straining to keep up. The staff went out of their way to make us comfortable and refreshed despite this. We also loved the interesting people, both locals and passerbys like us, who we met at the charming bar. Dinner was delicious—do not pass on the fried burrata in tomato sauce if you happen in when it is on the specials. The chef is gifted. We are looking forward to our next visit.

We arrived as a family and the staff at the Inn made sure that we were well cared for. Delaney and Valorie made sure that we had wonderful meals and that our water glasses was never empty. Both my boys needed some time to study and the staff was able to show them a quiet room where they could work! We had an awesome stay at the Inn! ❤️
