The place was amazing, very beautiful and views for days! The staff were very nice and informative…read more Now the not so good things: 1. It was very hot the day and you are forced immediately off the trolley to sit in a glassed in pouch that was 112 degrees for 20 minutes, which sets the tone of the experience in a negative way. You view the mansion hot and sweaty, which stinks (Pun intended). Even if it wasn't hot, people should have the option to skip the video. 2. The trolly is supposed to cycle every 15 minutes (trolly even said it on the way up). We waited over 30 minutes. 3. Some guests were chastised for things that could have been easily avoided by putting up signs. If you don't want people doing things which seem perfectly acceptable to do, put a sing up or put it at the end of your 20 minute video. I think the guests who were talked down too felt embarrased and it was unnecessary. 4. When you drive up to the attraction, there is parking, by the cafe. We parked, got out, and had to go up to some people working in the park to find that we had to continue driving up the mountain to get to the carriage house. Are signs that expensive? "Keep driving to see Castle In The Clouds" or "This way to see Castle in the Clouds".

Nice place with reasonable, if Spartan, living quarters. Very scenic with nice waterfront…read more Main problem is the food. It's the kind of food served at an inexpensive children's camp. And, of course, everything is overcooked. The menus don't look awful but the food is nothing to look forward to. Breakfast is OK as there is less for the kitchen to ruin. Once they served cold cuts for lunch and that was also OK. Problem is if you stay there you have to eat there as it is quite a distance to any other food. If they could fix the food, like serve food fit for adults, they would really have a great resort.

It was a family retreat I use to go to with my whole family for at least 28 years.... Then I got busy and had a family and one day I plopped my family in the car and took a day trip up there and showed them where I grew up as a child and had wonderful vacations there. If you look at there web site which I just did or go on there facebook page you will see beautiful pictures. I have gone 3 years in a row now to volunteer and help clean up and prepare for there many retreats that are hosted there. The food is awesome cooked daily ,,,breakfast , lunch and dinners !!! Young children,kids and adults would all have a great experience of trying some type of retreat there. You can even plan your own retreat by calling up there and talking to the person in charge of setting something up. It is not a place to go to be disrespectful, its a place to go for peace and fun. When you get there the beauty and scenario takes over and you are in awe of awesome the place really is. I never thought id see this on yelp but let me tell you I give it 5 stars because it deserves 5 stars !!! TRUST ME !!!! Look on there web site as I just did.. They have numerous options to choose from to have a great family vacation or other things ! Peter claypoole is the director of Geneva point center and along with his dedicated group of workers and volunteers they to a fantastic job.

The place was cheery and bright. Lots of people eating. We came for a wine tasting…read more Service was very slow with two folks behind the bar juggling about six or seven separate groups doing tastings. It took us over an hour to get through the wines and ciders. Slow but nice... enthusiastic even, but so slow. Our feet were hurting from standing. The wines were certainly interesting. No grapes were harmed in any way at this winery. All were made with various berries from the area. I will admit that they have developed some very good berry based wines that are superior to the typical blueberry or huckleberry wine I've tasted. Still it's difficult to mimic a good Pinot Noir without grapes, etc. I could make a better argument for trying their ciders. I enjoyed a few of them. I did not try any sweet wines, so there may be a gem or two amongst those. Interesting place. One try was enough for me.

Over the years, I know where I should attack yet executing is my problem. Today was one of those days. We started on 10- right out of the shoot- no warmup. I hit a very good tee shot but we couldn't find my ball. Same for the 13, 15 etc. drives straight down the middle but mountain golf being what it is- everything rolls downhill. After a while, I just gave up and laughed. Fortunately knowing the area somewhat, we went for cold beers to drown our sorrows. Nice staff but I need to realize- this course is much tougher than it's rated.

Been up at the lake for 20+ years now and golf and for some reason never took the initiative to…read moregolf here. Oh right, that new boat and private beach of ours makes me want to do well....nothing else. So I had 12 friends of mine up for a boys weekend away and to announce to the all that I was getting married again. What better way to celebrate than to golf right, it's what guys do. Well real men that is... This isn't true, golf isn't a tough sport, in fact if you are good at it, you are probably a spoiled little brat who didn't have to work hard. All bits aside, this place is gorgeous, it's 8 minutes from my house in Meredith and at the top of a hill. You pass the town recycling center, a cemetery and a bunch of beautiful homes to get to it. The fees are good, the people are kind and greens are in great shape. The course really is gorgeous, hills upon hills, greenery and some beautiful reservation type spots that have all the nature and wonder. Lot of granite and woods as well, I know this because this is where my balls usually end. I also checked out the function room for my upcoming wedding and the only thing that is preventing me from having it here is the room size, it only holds 200 and most likely 175 comfortably. That said, I will have twice that at my wedding and I am sad about this, because I absolutely loved the room. It's a barn type setting with an amazing stone fireplace in the center of it and beautiful wooded bar. It also isn't very busy for some reason, I golfed on a saturday morning at the end of June and got an 8 am tee time no problem whatsoever.

Aside from that one time when we went camping and the tent fell down in the rain, congratulations! You are number one on my list of worst places to stay...ever! The what-would-have-been-an-otherwise-glorious-weekend started when we almost got lost trying to find the dirt path that would lead us towards the lovely "chalet" that we were staying in....you know, it's to the left of the broken down truck and past the tiny painted wooden sign that says "chalets" (what, those aren't good enough landmarks for you??) As we entered the house which was decked out in some awesome 70's style furniture (and also looked like it hadn't been cleaned since the 70's), we scrambled to claim our beds, Real World style. Luckily all the rooms were pretty much exactly the same--you know, box fans, giant bugs and the best part... slightly moist sheets. Awesome. We sucked it up though and after a while I think the place grew on us. After all, there is definitely something comical about a family of ants living on the bathroom floor and a giant hole in the ceiling stuffed with toilet paper. Sure, drinking to cope helped, but who wouldn't think that mouse droppings on the kitchen table was funny?? It wasn't until the next morning when someone noticed the blood on the bathroom wall that we knew we were staying in a truly memorable place. (Seriously, I couldn't even make this shit up people.) All is not lost though, there is one redeeming factor of Kona: the shower. With the warm water (I know, right!?) and fantastic water pressure, it was the one thing made you feel as though you weren't staying, well, at the Kona Mansion Inn. Ahhhh.... relaxation....that is until your friend comes to knock on the bathroom door: "Umm... can you hurry up, the water is dripping through the ceiling into the kitchen..." And, we're back! So the moral of the story is, who needs to camp in the rain when you can stay at the Kona Mansion Inn and get the same effect? Right, camping in the rain it is.

I feel lucky to have found this place and will be back...NO DOUBT.
