I'm not a religious person at all, but "God is in the details" and Dena is a miracle worker who doesn't skip a beat!!! From the amazingly soft sheets, the electric fireplace, the beautiful robes, the reusable water bottles, any toiletry kit you might need, a stocked kitchen with flashlights/bug spray/aloe vera/honey sticks for coffee/to-go cups, the best smelling shampoo, streaming tvs (which aren't even available in Manhattan hotels most of the time), and too much more!! I was just STUNNED at what an amazing oasis this was. The employees, and of course, Dena, were beyond nice and friendly, as well as the other guests. I went for a solo birthday weekend and had to take a mug/robe home with me! Dena even did a very nice and special gesture when she found out it was my birthday. I even extended my trip to stay longer. The history is rich, the facilities are updated and yet still have the necessary old charm, and the breakfasts are great. I will be back 100 more times - especially for fall and winter heaven Added bonus: It is a kid-free zone THANK YOU

The staff is so friendly and provided us with recommendations. I walked in to find a personally written note welcoming us. The lodge was super quiet, and it had the best soap and lotion. Our room was perfect for a single or couple, since it is cozy. Picture, a studio. Yes, perfect. Like that. There were windows with sunlight pouring in, and beautiful planters and fresh flowers everywhere. I noticed when you walk in, there are boxes of water and tea available for us. I have to say that our stay was very relaxing and enjoyable. I believe we were the only couple there, yet still, it was so wonderful. It is also located within driving distance of a lot of great farm-to-table restaurants and also cideries. The downstairs brunch location is right next to a cafe so you can buy pastries and coffee. I highly recommend it.

Driving through this idyllic town, the GPS said we've arrived at our destination. Going up to the house, I see a busted up gravel driveway covered in leaves. I navigate to the front door and grabbed my overnight bag. Wet leaves or ice, I wouldn't be a happy guest. We're greeted by Neil and he gives us a small tour of the common space. The furnishings are very unique. I can see the owners antiquing in the area and finding these treasured pieces. As far as shared items, there is a Keurig coffee machine. It'll do in a pinch. At 7am I wanted coffee and the machine water was empty. I had to knock on the kitchen door and wait until someone answered to refill the machine. Breakfast was amazing! For me at least, when I'm on vacation I'll have French Toast and pancakes during my stay. My wife? She broke down the menu: a pitcher of orange juice, cake with sorbet, fruit plate with a boxed cookie on the side along with pancakes. My wife reminded me this is not an adult breakfast, it's all sugar! She asked for egg whites and Neil was flustered. They figured it out and served my wife. Neil grabbed me at the common area and said he explained breakfast during check in. I didn't know that we had to speak up right then, usually there's a sheet? The next day Darlene made some amazing pumpkin pancakes. My wife took 1/2 of one and we were only served two. So breakfast for me was good but I was aggravated both mornings. I was looking forward to kicking back and enjoying a bottle of wine, maybe smoke a cigar? Neil said there is no smoking on the premise. Ok, that's out. I asked for an ice bucket and was told he'll dig one up. It never came. It really didn't matter because the outside furniture on the deck, it wasn't inviting. The pillows looked wet and old. There is no other seating outside, no fire pit, nada. I brought my bottle to the next B&B... With any B&B, you should be offered quality shower products. First off, there was no soap bar? I don't like liquid soap, much less Dial. The shampoo, was a tiny bottle, something cheap. I had to buy a bar of soap and use a travel shampoo I had from another hotel. Our room was, interesting. More unique styled furniture. Lighting up the room was inadequate. There were small lamps but it wasn't enough. Neil said the thermostat for the entire house was right here. If we made the temperature warmer or colder, the entire house temperature will change. The same with the WiFi, the router was in our room?! That's a lot of pressure.. I didn't touch anything. After we checked out and I drove down busted driveway, I was glad to be leaving. 3 Yelp stars, my stay was average. I didn't feel pampered or relaxed.

Rev Jim was super flexible with Zoom/Skype video chat meetings because of this, and I even had the opportunity to visit him for an in-person meeting at his home when I was in town at the Beacon Hermitage. I must say this is a beautiful, stunning, and artsy property if you get the chance to visit! We worked with Rev Jim for a couple of years leading up to the wedding where he provided us a questionnaire for my husband and I to fill out separately with some personal questions about our relationship so he could learn more about us as a couple. I highly recommend taking this seriously as he was able to truly personalize and incorporate our love into the ceremony this way! Rev Jim also provided a document listing the different types of ceremonies to select what suits us best. We aren't the most religious, but wanted a little mention of god's blessing to appease our family, and he nailed that. He was also very accommodating with having a couple of family members conduct a reading, as well as allow time for my step-sister (who is a musical theatre professional) to sing at the beginning of our ceremony. We also decided for our unity ceremony to do the handfasting which truly "tied the knot"! During our reception, we received so many compliments from our guests on his ceremony, and even had some friends ask if they can use him for their wedding! He was so positively impactful and is someone to remember forever as such a big part of our special day! Check out his Instagram (@revjimrooney) to get a glimpse of what he does! You won't be disappointed!! Thank you for all the hard work and dedication!!!

I stayed here because I wanted to be away from the masses and crowds, and the Waterstone Inn fit the bill perfectly. The inn is literally across from the lake, so makes for a perfect summer or weekend getaway. The inn provides kayaks and canoes free of charge to go out on the lake. I communicated with Maureen before my stay and she was very quick to answer any questions. She was an absolute delight to converse with throughout my stay. She mentioned they weren't sure if they'd reopen after 2020, but they invested more money into the property and made some renovations to make the place more comfortable for guests, despite being an older property. All rooms/suites have a private bathroom and locks for privacy. I stayed in the spacious Bradford Suite on the 3rd floor, but all the rooms they offered seemed equally delightful to stay in when I took a peek. The place is so small and cozy that I didn't encounter any other guests except during breakfast hours (I think only one other room was occupied mid-week). Breakfast is included and is delicious...the food is freshly made to order. There are plenty of places to sit for breakfast whether it be a couch in the lounge, the window-side tables with lake views, or the front porch. The nautical and lake themes throughout the property were very well thought out and tasteful to give you a "getting away" type of feel. The porch area is welcoming and the perfect place where you can enjoy spectacular views of the action on the lake. The property has a parking lot on property directly adjacent to the inn which always felt safe and secure. The town of Greenwood Lake on the NJ/NY border is very cute, and was the filming location of a lesser known recent movie starring Morgan Freeman called the Magic of Belle Isle. All staff I encountered were amazingly welcoming, so I wouldn't hesitate to run as small businesses like these deserve to be supported.

The homemade breakfasts were so savory and yummy and let me not forget to mention the unlimited coffee, tea and lemonade that was provided throughout the entire stay. The location is close to many restaurants, shops, and the beach. We had fun kayaking out on the lake. Kayaks and canoes are available on the premises at no additional cost. This was our first time staying in Greenwood Lake and we simply loved it. Our stay at the Waterstone Inn added to our amazing weekend getaway full of everlasting memories. A big shout out and thank you to Dennis, Maureen, Tara, and Christine for your exceptional hospitality and making us feel at home and we look forward to a return visit! Thank you!

I got up and proceeded to the gate to wait for my clients in my car . In my view this was very unprofessional since if there was any impediment I could have been approached in a very different and courteous way ,which I completely understand since I'm a mature person, but that's not what happened . I would not go back and I would not refer this farm because of my first and only experience .
