I was very disappointed by our stay at Mohonk. This is NOT a place I will return to or recommend for anyone going 1.) in the winter or 2.) with children, despite the marketing to suggest it is a place for families. When booking the reservation, the agent assured me the Grove Lodge would be the best choice for my family with 3 young children. She did mention it was a little separated from the main building but did not stress that it was 1/4 mile up hill climb to get to any of the restaurants or activities (or lack there of). We had to bundle up in snow pants, etc everytime we left the house. THis is ridiculous with toddler age children. There was nothing for kids to do in the winter unless they are old enough to ice skate. Iceskating is outdoors, the rink is beautiful, but it is hard to do this very long in 6 degree weather. We had planned at least to go for some hikes down the trails but were not allowed to do so without wearing snowshoes. (which a 2 year old cannot do). The older children were told by the concierge that there would be snow tubing unless the snow melted overnight (which, trust me, it did not), but this for some reason was canceled and that was a huge disappointment as well. We spent a large portion of the trip sitting in the room (beautiful, yes, but not for the price). The all inclusive food was mediocre. I will not be returning or recommending this place.
