The…read moreproperty is managed by The Appalachian Condo Owners Association and each unit is owned by individuals / not a hotel.) My family stayed at The Appalachian for a quick visit over Father's Day weekend. Located at Mountain Creek, it's surrounded by activities like mountain biking, trails, slopes, and a water park. We were drawn to the area for the NJ Beer and Food Festival held at Crystal Springs Resort. Initially, we aimed for a room at CSR, but at over $620 per night, it was too costly. So, I searched on Expedia and found a studio condo listed at half the price. The listing was titled "Serenity Now" - Sunsets Mtn Creek Ski Resort Remodeled Fireplace WIFI. We ended up in Appa unit #361, hosted by Gerry, who was very communicative via email and responsive via text. We were pleased with the studio's condition. It featured a fully stocked kitchenette and a bathroom with limited toiletries. A parking pass for the underground garage was included, which was convenient. The only downside was that my allergies flared up during our stay. Initially, I suspected the AC filter, but upon inspecting further, I found pet hair on the blanket underneath the comforter, suggesting someone had violated the no-pets policy before our arrival. Despite this, it was an overall pleasant stay. Although my kids didn't use the pool on-site, it looked inviting. I would consider visiting again and booking Gerry's unit. Compared to some negative reviews, it appears Gerry maintains his unit better than other condo owners.

Not worth at ALL what I paid, I feel completely ripped off…read more Contacting the front desk is near impossible. In room phones are useless. Called multiple times to get shower gel and shampoo refilled and it took all day. Had to skip dinner at their restaurant because my hair was too oily from an earlier treatment and I couldn't wash it out. Sounds petty except when you realize you're paying six hundred a night! Lots of little inconveniences. Main floor before rooms smelled like chlorine from pool. Breakfast feels hectic. Have to check in with hostess to be seated. If you can find her. Most key staff are overwhelmed and apathetic. Normally I don't care about pealing paint on walls or ceiling but thought I'd mention that too. Loud noises came through from floor above. Very loud mini fridge. Didn't sleep so great first night. Overpriced everything!! I felt I paid twice as much for everything during my stay. I didn't think the spa was worth it. Had to walk downstairs to resolve an issue at the salon/spa and then wait back in line for twenty minutes at front desk to check out. No available luggage racks so had to lug all my $&@# from the room to my car in the freezing cold to cap off my stay. Though I can sympathize with the gargantuan duties the front desk has to handle nonstop, the minuscule discount they gave me was appalling. I was so livid, angry and drained after such a disappointing second day. From figuring out seating in an overly crowded breakfast buffet, then a massage that was nowhere near worth the price, to being locked out of my room before checkout just as I was transporting my bags. At this point I had had enough with being surrounded by sniffling, coughing, crying kids. I'm surprised I didn't break down in tears myself after they asked how I'd be paying. I almost wish I had two thousand dollars in pennies to dump on the floor in front of them! (Regards to Barbara, Rachel and the two waiters from breakfast who gave their all and a couple others.) There WERE staff that cared. But also staff like the housekeeping manager that can &*@$-off for lying to my face. It was not worth what I paid. To the owners, I'd like to ask, what tf? If someone has the guts from your team to contact me, feel free. I'll be polite. Maybe we can hash things out. Maybe it was a series of badly timed everything? I truly wanted to like this place. On a positive note, I did enjoy my balcony view.

A Truly Special Getaway - Any Season of the Year…read more Our stay at Crystal Springs Resort--both Grand Cascades Lodge and Minerals Hotel--was nothing short of extraordinary. The beauty of the property is breathtaking in every direction, no matter the season. Where else can you swim outdoors in a perfectly heated pool while snow is falling all around you? It's an unforgettable experience and one of the many things that makes this resort so special. Everything is immaculately clean, meticulously maintained, and thoughtfully designed for relaxation and comfort. The staff truly shines--warm, courteous, professional, and always willing to help. You feel genuinely welcomed from the moment you arrive. The food throughout the resort is absolutely delicious, with wonderful dining options to enjoy during your stay. While we do miss their fabulous breakfast buffet, we understand it's offered during the busier summer months--and it's certainly something to look forward to on a future visit. Whether you're planning a cozy winter escape or a vibrant summer getaway, don't think twice. Crystal Springs Resort delivers beauty, relaxation, exceptional service, and memorable experiences all year round.

We drove 6 hours and took time off work to attend a wedding to be left without power for 3+ hours... who knows when it will come back on, we're going to sleep. It may sound like hyperbole but I never had this problem in any hotel in Zimbabwe, Ghana, or other developing countries with spotty grids in all my years of traveling. There are generators keeping the Friday night wedding dance floors lit but all the rooms are dark. Keeping it two stars because the food and service is great! Now I'm hoping the power doesn't come until The morning so when inevitably all the lights and systems whirl to life my sleeping toddler doesn't wake with a fury that can't be put back down.

They were welcoming and we were greeted even though we didn't check in until 9:30ish. We opted to have our breakfast delivered to the room since we like to lounge around in the mornings. This was our FAVORITE part of the whole weekend! The first morning, we had scrambled eggs, sausage, and fresh fruit with blueberry pancakes. The second morning, we had stuffed french toast with bacon and fruit. Can I just say that I still crave both dishes, even after a month? They were the tastiest pancakes and stuffed french toast ever! Plus, we had a cute little view of the pond from our room. Long story short, I would highly recommend taking a weekend trip here. We booked the Appalachian Room and it had a fairly large jacuzzi as well, so that was a plus.

The owners are very nice, the grounds are peaceful, and the breakfasts are amazing. They actually have more than one breakfast option for you to choose. There is a nice winery and some pretty good restaurants within driving distance. The only down comment I'd like to make is that if you are a big person or are claustrophobic, do NOT book the Fox and Hound room. The bathroom is small, and the shower is very small, so you'd have to book a different room. But don't let that deter you from booking here. You'll like this place.

Overall, it was a convenient option and very close to Mountain Creek, which made our trip much easier. Judy at the front desk was super nice and welcoming. The staff overall was friendly and helpful throughout our stay. The breakfast was good, and my kids especially loved being able to make their own waffles and choose what they wanted that was definitely a highlight for them! I really appreciated that the room had a microwave and fridge, which made traveling with kids much easier. The beds, sheets, and towels all seemed clean and comfortable. The only downside was that I wish the room had been a bit cleaner. We found some dust bunnies near the desk, and the bathroom lighting was very dark, which made it a little concerning after noticing the dust. Overall, it was a convenient stay with kind staff and good amenities, especially for families visiting Mountain Creek.

This bed and breakfast was very close to where we needed to go. The room is spacious with a nice bathroom attached. Downstairs in the common area is very welcoming. When I came downstairs after a pretty miserable drive where it rained the entire time, we were starving and wondering what might still be open. The owner was chatting with people in the dining room and went through a map and menus of nearby places to try out. Breakfast the next morning is community style where you may be sitting across another guest at your table. Breakfast was delicious and included in house prepared pound cake. They asked if we wanted the meat or vegetarian quiche ahead of time and since we couldnt decide we got both and split both haha. We came up during winter when there was still snow on the ground, and when we showed up it was rainy and dark, but in the light of day next morning we could see that the grounds were beautiful. We could see a wedding being hosted here.
