Staff was friendly and super helpful, everything was clean, worked well and we will most definitely come back for another trip - this time we will bring our kids as well. Met some really nice folks staying there - everyone was a return customer "this is our 4th time, we come here every year." I even was able to take a 10K run around the property, making use of the trails and some of the elevation - really great if you're training for a trail run. Loved our stay, already looking at our calendar to see when we can go back. Great idea, lovely property, thanks so much for a great time!

I was floored with the venue. Thank you to Christine, Meghan, Josh, Martin and the entire WFF staff who made the event a complete success. Absolutely loved this place and it's worth all the pennies, nickels, dimes, quarters, and bills you have! The Great Porch is a stunning communal area with giant fire, drinks, and views. The individual cabins are exceptionally appointed with great ambiance and direct access to the outdoors. All the food is top notch and delicious. So many options for events! I cannot say how amazing this place was. I am so glad it's in our area and I can go back!

"A wonderful spontaneous weekend getaway"…read more My husband and I (a coupe in their 30s) having been wanting to visit Abbott's Glen Clothing-Optional Inn and Campground for quite sometime so the morning after a long planned house party at our first house we decided to treat ourselves to some much deserved rest and relaxation in VT. Amy was very kind about finding us a place to state at the inn and very upfront about it being next to the recreation area and across the road from reception. The service was outstanding all around from the cozy country room to clean showers and bathroom and amazing homemade meals. The gourmet pizzas had been amazing that we had while dining outside on the patio with other inn guest and breakfast in the morning had something for everyone. We love the person feel you get while there, you just do not feel like guest #1243 passing by the front desk. They offer cold drinks on the honor system and ice. There is so much to do and it's exactly as advertised if not better. The one thing I would enjoy is a list of suggestions for food/dining in a 30 Min. radius for those who do not know the area well during the times meals are not available. We can't wait to visit again :-) BTW Make sure to visit the river beach it's so relaxing. Every accommodation at Abbotts Glen is so unique, make sure to view all the details/photos on the Glen's website and feel free to ask questions.

Spillian is a lovely venue, but what really sold us were the people. The owners, Mark and Leigh,…read moreare retired theater people and they are there to put on a show. And you are the director! They really encourage you to make it your day, and it's a truly customizable experience. There is no fixed menu, or seating arrangement, or timeline. They work with you throughout the planning process to make everything your own. Mark and Leigh were incredible every step, not only were they able to comfortably answer all of our questions but everything went smoothly on the day. And Chris in the kitchen is something else, hands down one of the best chefs I have had the pleasure of chatting with, and if he offered, I'd be at his table every night for dinner. Another saving grace is that the venue itself doubles as an airbnb for you and your loved ones. You rent the house for the weekend, and it has 8 bedrooms to divide amongst your bridal party. It really helped me to let loose on my day knowing that my bed was right upstairs and that the Spillian staff would handle the cleanup. They also hosted our rehearsal dinner and morning after brunch, and it lessened the load to not have to plan two separate events with different vendors. Now let's talk about the day itself! I didn't have to lift a finger. My husband and I brought along decorations and signage, and expected to have to do some organizing ourselves. But the Spillian staff were there Friday night when we were unpacking asking what everything was and where we wanted it, and it was packed back up for us by Sunday morning. On Saturday, they went to work putting everything together for us. It was beautifully orchestrated by Spillian's coordinator, Sam. We can't thank her enough for making sure that our rainy day wedding went so smoothly, we barely even noticed that we had to shift our plans within 30 minutes! Originally, the whole affair was meant to be hosted outside, but persistent rain (it is the Catskills after all) had us moving the reception indoors. They had the whole event setup outside and moved it all inside in record time. By the time photos were done everything was set for dinner. They even offer a late night bonfire if that's your thing, and thankfully we were still able to light it in the rain. Overall 35/10 Have your wedding here, stop questioning it.

The waitresses are very kind and dressed in traditional German dresses and the live music is a great touch. To start, I ordered a Long Island Iced Tea that had a bit too much punch to it. The alcohol ratio was quite off and was very hard to drink. I asked for a soda to try and dumb it down, but was only able to get about half way through it. Though this was my fault for not ordering a beer at a German restaurant, I still would have liked the drink to be a bit tastier and is unfortunately the only thing keeping this review from being a shinning 5-stars. For my meal I ordered the sauerbraten which did NOT disappoint! The beef was very tender and the vinegar mixed with the gravy was the perfect level of sour and hearty. The red hot red cabbage was hot and flavorful and the potato pancakes were perfectly cooked. The side of applesauce put on top of the potato pancakes added the right amount of sweetness. A friend got the special rouladen which I got a taste of and was very delicious. The pickles inside were flavorful and the meat was perfectly cooked and seasoned. The menu is a bit pricey, but the portions are deceptively filling. I definitely expected to be hungry after but I finished my plate absolutely stuffed! Overall, this was a great experience and would recommend anyone looking for a taste of Germany to give this a try.

I have stayed at Emerson for many years and it was always pleasure. But this Thursday through…read moreSaturday was a dismal, disappointing experience. On Thursday, we were checked into Room 404. The room was filled with bugs and next to the trash cans. We called the front desk and spoke with Jordan. She was not sympathetic and reluctant to let us change rooms even though there was an empty room down the hall. After a long, stressful interaction with her, we changed to Room 409. On Saturday night, the fire alarm went off. There was nobody at the front desk to guide us. Eventually, it was so deafening, that we left and drove home in the middle of the night. I paid $1,024 for this horrible vacation experience in which we got no rest and relaxation. We will not be returning to Emerson.

Pine Lake is a strange one to me. A resort in then Catskills is not the kind of place that would…read morebe desirable growing up, and I grew up not far from here. My wife is from LI and grew up coming, so here I am. The nostaglia factor is huge here, and I don't have it. So to be fair all around, I'm noting what I have experienced and grading them on the food. Place is upstate ghetto, and I mean that in a good way. There is plenty to do, however most of it is comparable to a park. There is a swimming pool, pool slide, lake, boats, playground structures, pool, basketball, video games, shuffleboard and more. Lots of outdoor activities. The great thing is being with other families with young kids, and being able to drink with the other parents while the kids go off. They also do stuff like a hayride--no hay included, just a dude speeding in a pickup truck on the country roads--a DJ night and a visit to a farm. They make the most of the area which is good. Accommodations are simple, however they have upgraded some of the rooms which has made it a lot better than it was. The food is better than it has any business being. All meals are 100% homemade, themed with 1 offering each, all you can eat, include dessert, and it is worth noting what is served on what day. The best by far is the roast beef, which is accompanied by german potatoes fried in bacon fat. They are superb, especially with some gravy and the rare roast beef. Thanksgiving is another good one, as are the homemade cold cuts. It doesn't always make sense, however have never had a 'bad' meal here. Even the baked ziti isn't bad. Always ask for the lemonade. Weirdest damn thing is they never have fries (not even at the lunch counter). Shakes at the lunch counter are superb though, as is the over buttered popcorn. I've grown to like coming here, and my son loves it. That's enough for me. Wish there was a brewery nearby or something instead of the stupid golf course, but such is life.
