Mohonk Mountain House

I went to Mohonk as a kid and loved it, so fast forward 50+ years later, I wanted to go back. Still incredibly beautiful, magnificent trails, fun activities, nice spa but... The rooms are Ok, I couldn't see in the full length mirror on the inside of the closet door because the door didn't open all the way, the night table was in the way. The bathroom was OK but no place to put your stuff. Pedestal sinks are only good in pictures. There were so many kids under 10 it ruined the whole experience. They were running in the halls (on wood floors) yelling, etc. The parents were worse. The dining room was a zoo. The food for breakfast and lunch was a 5 out of 10. Dinner was better maybe 7 out of 10 but not worth the $$ paid for the experience. We had signed up for the Chefs table but it was canceled (not enough sign ups) and so we had to eat in the main dining room which was so noisy and unruly it was just plain unpleasant. The next night we ate at Founders which is smaller but still tables full of kids. Anyway, glad I went back but it'll be the last time. For 1500 per night you can have a much nicer experience in many places. Kudos to some of the staff, the guy doing the archery and tomahawk throwing was so great, some of the front desk staff, the bellman, and more were outstanding.

Beautiful location. Food is delicious. Amazing hikes along the resort. Staff somewhat frazzled and is expensive for what it is.

We had We had a tough year in 2025 and wanted to escape during the holidays, but preferred not to fly. Driving to Mohonk Mountain House was the perfect choice: Since it's all-inclusive, we only needed our room key to enjoy the indoor pool, snow tubing, ice skating, and more. The food is outstanding. Lots of options, thanks to well-labeled food, at the buffets. The service is exceptional. It's very expensive, but worth every cent. We truly loved our time there.

A convenient 3 1/2 hour ride from home to be transported to a secluded get away from it all weekend recharge. Check in was a breeze and our room was ready upon arrival around 1:00pm. We had a Victorian room overlooking the mountains, wonderful views from our 4th floor balcony with rocking chairs. You are in the front of the hotel so be aware of the fact that you will see cars arriving and maybe more noise than if you were overlooking the lake. Our room had a fireplace which would be perfect on a crisp fall or winter evening, the bed was extremely comfortable including the pillows. Bathroom on the small side but adequate. The chair in the room was not very comfortable, very hard when sat on but then again why sit inside when you can sit outside and enjoy the views. This is a do as much as you want or as little as you want place. The amount of activities to choose from is amazing, you could go from morning till night. There were yoga, exercise, tai chi, etc. classes offered daily, totally enjoyed them along with the instructors who were excellent. Tomahawk throwing was a blast! Our 25 mile bike ride was a lot of fun but we were exhausted by the end, even on electric bikes (FYI you still have to pedal), the hiking was great especially stopping at each of the wooden huts along the way ( not sure how many there are but it seemed like there was always one around each corner, each one unique in their own way so very cool!!!!), the 9 hole golf course was stunning (a great course but very hilly!!), and of course rowboating and canoeing on the lake was relaxing and fun once we got the hang of rowing LOL!!! There were still many more activites that we didn't have time to do like archery, paddle boarding, kayaking, horseback riding and the talks/tours of the house, kitchen and barn. We'll just have to come back to finish up. Nightime was low key usually one show a night starting at 9:00pm and lasting an hour which was perfect because you will be exhausted from a full day of activities. The food was included, 3 meals a day. Pretty good nothing over the top fancy but served its purpose. We personally thought Founders Restaurant tastier than the main dining room. The Granary BBQ cookout area was just ok, think that could use some improvement, ran out of some food and not really organized. We noticed alot of multigenerational families that come here year after year, grandparents, children, grandchildren. Wish we had known this when our kids were little a perfect place for families to enjoy time together! Mohonk Mountain House is a top in our book!!!! Had a most enjoyable stay.

What a disappointment! We just paid $400 for a “ 5 Star brunch” that was literally a step up from golden corral. The meat was some strange brick shaped hot roast type of thing full of fat. They hadsome chicken that it obviously been baked on a quickie sheet and some inedible seafood as the hot entrées. Beverages are not included no tablecloths, no upscale service, noisy, crowded dining room. No one ever came around with coffee. Do not be sucked in! The view is nice but not $400 nice and the food is horrific.
