Excellent start.... After spending some amazing time at the Memorial Tower, with its magnificent views off the River Valley; we returned to the Inn (which we had checked out earlier) and engaged in their afternoon high-tea. The Inn has a comfortable wood-centric interior, which is a surprisingly pleasant complement to the formality of a full service tea. Our server, Shari, was friendly and attentive; lending to the enjoyment of the experience. The sweet and savories accompanying the tea were nicely conceived and quite tasty. All and all, this became a very satisfying afternoon; and along with the earlier spectacular time at the Memorial Tower, made for an excellent start to our 10 day exploration of the Hudson River Valley. The Inn has a nice gift shop, with a decent variety of area related items from which to choose. Any staff members we encountered throughout the facility, were welcoming, informative and accommodating. Even though it was late April, there was a fair amount of activity at the Inn; and as we were leaving in the late afternoon, some event was creating a steady stream of incoming traffic to the parking area. If we are again in the area, a visit back to the Inn will definitely be on our agenda.

Disappointing _ I was very excited to go to the bear mountain and they put us in one of the cottages. We'll to my surprise this room was horrid. They had the tiniest bathroom, a spider was in the tub. The bathroom was so small, you have to turn left and right in a tiny circle to access the toilet, sink, tub, and close the door. The door did not open fully because it was blocked by the tiny sink. The shower curtain had red droplets on it that may have been blood. The room had an Emergency Exit in our room that was to be used for all occupants of the cottage in case of an emergency with eight rooms. The green light on the emergency sign kept me up all night.

Come for the scenery not the room We stayed in one of the stone cottages. As you would expect given the nature of Overlook Lodge, the room was not up to modern standards. It was tiny and did not have a desk. The bathroom was very small with no place for toiletries. The walls were thin and you could hear people come and go outside. But the scenery and setting are gorgeous. So if you are willing to put up with the inconvenience and not have to spend any extra time in the room it is worth it. The 1915 Restaurant in the main hotel, a very pleasant half mile walk from the stone cottages, was excellent.

Nice stay after Few Years We decided to give dog friendly Overlook Lodge another chance and to my happy surprise the shared fireplace living area has been renovated and is clean! We had a nice dinner in the restaurant on Sunday night. Also beautiful walk around Lake and playing with our pups on the great lawn. We will now return. PS - All the trails are closed due to storm in 2023, 2024 and they are doing trail maintence.

Isolated and Creepy We stayed at the Overlook Lodge which was more than a mile from the main building/reservations/staff - up a very long, remote, isolated, rough road. There was no staff on-site and we were guessing we would be the only guest in the whole place (although there were two other cars by morning). It creeped me out. I stopped at the reservation desk to tell them and they said they have staff there on the weekends...but what good would that do for me on a Monday night? I wish their practice to tell guest who book weeknights like me, since I would have stayed somewhere else instead. Also, the bar was closing early because it was the same day they served tea in the afternoon. Oh, well. I bet it is a better place to say in season.
