The Mayflower Inn & Spa

My husband and I came here with our four year old son and had a great experience. It was such a nice change of pace from the city. The staff were all lovely. We dined in the restaurant, spent time on the grounds, swam and played tennis. My son loved the kids pasta dish, and we all enjoyed our meals. We appreciated the emphasis on local ingredients and making things in house. The winter swim hours for children are minimal, but my son and I are up early, so it worked out okay for us. Would definitely go back.

Our dinner was meh, I think this place is just as overhyped as the Inn which can fetch up to $2500 a night. The menu was not inspiring despite their best efforts to use locally sourced items. Paying $25 for some grilled lettuce is just crazy to me. Drinks will fetch you just about that as well. Even the kids grilled cheese at $18 is insane. We had a table of 10, 3 which ate off the kid menu, and the bill still was $1,000. Now if the food had wowed me it would have been a differnt story, but not so much in this case. Our table tried several items, only ones not pictured were the steak and kids burger, but nobody was impressed despite the high expectations in advance. The sourdough and homemade butter was good though, although the butter was pretty salty.

Visited this location since Gilmore Girl's was inspired by it. It was highly decorative with fall decorations. A group of us girls were walking around and a gentleman came outside and took our group picture and asked where we were coming from. I cannot tell if he came out just to check on what we were doing or if he was genuinely being kind. I am going to give him the benefit of the doubt and be grateful we got a group picture!

We had dinner there last night and while the service was terrific , the meal was not .. the Denver steak was as tough as leather we also had the crab, rice and bean dish which was quite fishy as though the crab wasn't even cooked. For those prices, we had expected more! We had stayed there before and eaten in the garden room as well, but won't be back after last night!

We drove all the way from Greenwich C.T. to try the brunch at the Garden Room at this inn. I can't say enough about how disappointing the entire experience was from the beginning. First of all the room is small noisy and very unattractive, it more like a cheap hotel with dated furniture and wallpaper, just dreadful.. The real issues started with a very rude and inexperienced watress. They made us wait over 10 minutes before someone came over to ask if we would like a drink. We ordered and asked for some of their sourdough bread which never arrived. We placed our order for brunch and asked that they bring the oatmeal first and the remaining order to follow. They brought everything at the same time and we had to send back the order until we ate to iced cold oatmeal. When they brought out our salad and hamburger, the salad was drenched in dressing and was soggy and not eatable. The hamburger was raw as if they just put raw meat on a bun even though I asked for medium. No one came around to check if everything was ok and we couldn't find someone to get us another drink and tell them about the issues with the food. When they finally came all they said was I will speak to the chef, can you imagine giving customers that kinda of reply, they totally didn't care about the food being so bad. I am not sure who rates these restaurants with good ratings but take it from me this place is not even up to the standards of a good Greek diner, it is just awful in every way and shows how getting 5 star ratings is truly fabricated. Don't waste a single dime on coming here as you will regret wasting your money and time. STAY-FAR AWAY FROM THIS DUMP.

We stopped in at the end of our Gilmore Girls Day in New Milford and Washington Depot. The staff at the door welcomed us in and showed us around. We stopped in at the bar and met Jordan, the amazing bartender. She was so friendly and took a genuine interest in getting to know us. I enjoyed the Mayflower Spritz cocktail that she suggested based on my preferences. I would love to come back and spend a few nights here.

Service was very good however my entree left a lot to be desired. It was the GRANDE 'GARDEN + SEA' AIOLI and it was anything but grande. It was two overcooked shrimp over different lettuces and baby vegetables and a very bland aioli. Really, two shrimp?

Have been here a number of times and it is very good, but not as good as it should be for the prices. The dining room is beautiful. We had a wonderful lunch and then walked around the gardens. I have also had dinner in the bar area - it is cozy and dark, better for winter evenings. The spa, called The Well was a highlight for me. It is really special and has everything you could ask for in a full service spa - fitness classes, pool, spa treatments, tons of amenities and a full spa dining menu. I have made a full day out of the spa and it was one of the best I have experienced.

Magical place to relax and get a massage. My deep tissue was with Rachel. It was the best and im comparing with some very high end places

I would give more stars if I could! Absolutely stunning wedding for my daughter. Not one thing left not though of. Just beautiful property with thoughtful touches and the most wonderful staff imaginable! Thank you times a million!
