There are so many glowing words I could use to describe the three days my friends and I spent at this absolutely fabulous hotel, but a slice of Heaven I believe says it all. On January 10th, I hosted 30 women for my first Wise and Wonderful Women’s weekend retreat. All the attendees are hard-core triple type A New Yorkers who are not easily pleased, including myself. Every one of us left feeling recharged, pumped up, and so impressed by the rooms, grounds, facilities, and food. The staff (led by Michael) took care of our every need from a warmer temp for the indoor pool to tailoring a healthy menu. They helped us place gift bags in the room prior to the guest’s arrival and even a crackling wood fire waiting for us at breakfast and a roaring gas fire in the room where we held most of our programming. I spent the night up there in advance this summer by myself, and it was awesome. I had a fabulous time and met some wonderful people who were also there solo. What a gem! It’s only an hour and 50 minutes from New York City and I can’t recommend it more highly. We’ve already booked a weekend in January again! Thank you all :)

This was a perfect getaway. We spent one night and 2 days and were completely able to enjoy all the resort has to offer. Rooms were perfectly appointed and comfortable. Food was delicious , and the staff accommodated our dietary needs. We hit a snow storm and that only enhanced the cozy environment. Yoga-hiking -art clases and more. The spa and amenities were great.

As someone who has worked here, I HIGHLY advise people to request new sheets/linens and tea cups upon arrival. They do not always have duvet covers for the next guests so they will use the same one from previous guests PER housekeeping MANAGER Ronnie. She also trains us to clean the tea cups with water and a rag……. It’s vile, especially coming from a place posing to be a health and wellness retreat yet NOT taking your actual health and wellness into consideration! DO BETTER HEMLOCK

Very disappointing. Miniscule portions at dinner, room never cleaned, and a weird vibe overall - not unfriendly, exactly, but it's as if you're being tolerated. One young man on staff, however, was utterly delightful. His name is Zach. He should be running the place, really. The rescue goats are magnificent, and the very best part of an otherwise forgettable visit.

Hard to believe that anyone would come back to this place based on the cost, the value and the service. First, the rooms are musty, they smell, and they are poorly appointed. I have stayed at terrific resorts that charge a similar price and offer great service and accommodations and this is not one of them. When we got there, the hot tub was out of service, one of the pieces of gym equipment was out of service and the fireplace didn’t work. The food is fine, but the menu is very limited. Restaurant service was good. I recommend wildflower farm, which is 10 times nicer, in the area and it has much better accommodations, better service and food.
