We stayed in Room 10 which features a king size bed and a large soaking tub. The bed was comfortable, clean, and the bathroom was sizable. We always felt like there was a lot of space to unwind and relax when we were in our room. We were offered the Fall menu when we were there. On day 1 I had the apple crumble French toast (AMAZING) and I'm not even a big French toast guy. Your table has fresh orange juice, water, and coffee/tea when you come down and get seated. Loved this. On day 2 I had the traditional breakfast and enjoyed it thoroughly. The staff was friendly and accommodating - as expected from a well run B&B. We were on site for a small gathering of gamer friends and so I also tried some of their offerings in the small cafe. I tried Italian wedding soup for lunch and got several hot tea drinks. All excellent. They have a small "snack room" near the main entrance that has popcorn, and water, coffee maker, and other small amenities to make your stay more enjoyable. Overall, this was one of the most visitor-focused B&B we've had the pleasure of staying in. It sounds obvious to say that, but it his place really puts your money to work to make you enjoy your stay. Thank you!

The location is gorgeous, the wait staff was above and beyond, the coordinator Sharon Potter was one of the best I have seen in the business, and the venue offered an experience that a good many of my attendees have been talking about. The location itself located comfortably in the Pocono area is isolated enough to enjoy your own wedding, but still near to a lot of hubs for shopping and food. The gorgeous lake is a little bit away from the venue, but offers a beautiful view of the area. The venue itself is quaint and elegant. Overall, we could not have picked a better place to pick and were assisted by some of the best people to make our day perfect. I will always remember how well they treated us and I will always recommend this location.

Our compliments to the Chef! Luca and Amanda both came by our AirBnB to make a fantastic 4 (maybe…read more5?) course meal for my buddy's bachelor party. Keep in mind, many of us were already big fans of his from Master Chef so when we found out he was actually based in the area, we were ecstatic. Though we knew about Chef Luca prior to our arrival but he still blew us away. The food was obviously incredible, but I think what really set him apart was how he took time to speak with us and get to know us a bit. Swapping stories and learning about the cuisine was such a valuable experience. My grandma is 100% Italian and I told her about his Broccoli Rabe and she questioned me about it for about 20 minutes upon returning back home. Outside of the food and conversation, this event was a really nice way to get all of the bachelor party attendees around the table to share a meal. It definitely brought us together. We started with Crostini, then Broccoli Rabe, then Steak/short ribs, mashed potatoes, mushrooms, and had this incredible pudding for dessert. 100% would do this again. I also want to shout out Amanda who helped Luca with everything, she was awesome and so cool. Thank you Chef! We might have to fly you out to Austin for Drew's bachelor party next month!

I saw this old hotel did tours, so I wanted to check it out. There is street parking and a small…read morelot. We didn't buy tickets in advance, but it was unclear where to go to get tickets and meet the tour. On the parking lot level, they rent out rooms to third party businesses who will not help direct you. The street parking level (downstairs) has a bunch of small shops and the ticket area way in the back. This was all pretty unclear the day of. The hotel seems like a work in progress still, but it's nice it was saved. The Delaware Water Gap used to be a hip and happening place and most of those turn of the century hotels are gone now, so it's nice this was saved from demolition thanks to a second era as a music publishing company by Fred Waring (of blender fame) and a third era as a restoration project from a couple wanting to save its history. The tour goes through the old soda shoppe, outside for a little bit to see the general area, then into the event venue space/original lobby. It's too bad there are no restored hotel rooms to see or book at present. Our guide was very knowledgeable, and seeing the remnants of tourism a hundred years ago was cool. I hope as time goes on, more areas get restored to their more original look.

Then it was owned by Fred Waring Sr who was a vocal instructor and had a traveling jazz group called Warnings Pennsylvanians, and he also ran Shawnee Press at the castle and became one of the world's largest publishers and sellers of choral music. He had lots of famous people working with him including the writer of 'Conjunction Junction What's your Function'. The tour was just about and hour and definitely interesting! While you are there for the tour you can tour the shops, there is a nice assortment as well as an adorable Ice Cream shop. Definitely check the website before going, tours are only done on specific days. I felt the tour was a good value. There is limited off street parking, but on street parking it also available.

As the mother of the bride, I am extremely disappointed with our experience at this venue…read more Many of the issues involved the on-site manager, Trisha, who was responsible for overseeing the property and wedding operations. Throughout the weekend, there was a lack of professionalism, communication, and urgency in addressing problems. The guest accommodations had no hot water, plumbing issues, and a toilet that would not flush. When concerns were brought to Trisha's attention, we were met with comments like, "Ugh, this is my life," rather than solutions. The bridal suite was equally disappointing. The water smelled strongly of sulfur, making the tub unusable for the bride and groom on their wedding night. The air conditioning was not working, and although Trisha was informed the night before, it was still not fixed the next morning. At 7:00 a.m. on the wedding day, I texted her to let her know it still wasn't working and received no response. This was a 90+ degree June day, and fifteen women were trying to get ready in the bridal suite without air conditioning. On the morning of her wedding, my daughter was told that dogs were not allowed in the bridal suite, despite us being told during our initial tour that dogs were welcome. After the ceremony, Trisha told the bride and groom that the groomsmen's belongings had been locked away and needed to be collected, pulling them away from their guests. She also told them it was "the worst wedding she had ever hosted," which is something no couple should ever hear on their wedding day. There was also an incident in which Trisha physically grabbed our wedding coordinator's arm, dug her nails into her, and pulled her toward the parking lot. To make matters worse, I discovered an unauthorized $264.84 room charge on my credit card. Most disappointing of all was the complete lack of accountability afterward. We spoke directly with one of the owners during the wedding weekend and were promised a follow-up call the next day. Despite multiple calls and messages from both my husband and me, we never received a response. My family has been in the hospitality industry for many years. We understand that problems can happen. What matters is how they are handled. Unfortunately, based on our experience, we cannot recommend this venue.

If I could give zero stars, I would…read more What should have been one of the most exciting times of our lives turned into one of the most frustrating experiences we've ever had. After paying an $8,000 deposit, communication became inconsistent, responses were slow or nonexistent, and getting straightforward answers felt like pulling teeth. As paying customers making one of the biggest financial commitments of our lives, we expected professionalism, transparency, and at the very least basic customer service. Instead, we were left chasing updates, waiting for responses, and feeling completely ignored when important questions arose. The most disappointing part was how little flexibility or understanding was shown when issues came up. Rather than working with us to find solutions, we felt like we were treated as nothing more than a signed contract and a deposited check. A wedding venue should make couples feel excited, supported, and confident in their decision. Unfortunately, our experience did the exact opposite. The stress, frustration, and lack of communication ultimately overshadowed everything else. Before signing anything or handing over a large deposit, I strongly recommend that couples ask themselves one question: if a problem comes up, will this venue actually be there to help you? Based on our experience, the answer was a resounding no. This was one of the most disappointing customer service experiences we've ever had, and we deeply regret choosing this venue.
