We came across Minnewaska lodge five years ago, when someone in town mentioned that they stayed there. We were immediately entranced with the open space, the location to the gunks, and the delightful customer service, and lowkey but lovely decor. What we really love is a place that offers tranquility, beauty, and the friendliest most intimate atmosphere and staff -... More

We looked around several different areas of NY state for a vacation, and eventually settled on the Minnewaska Lodge in Gardiner.

Booked a room at Minnewaska Lodge for a last minute getaway. Its hard to believe that this gem is only about 2 hours away from us. Its location is perfect for anyone looking to take in the great outdoors as many state parks are very close by. If you want to trek into New Paltz its only about a 10... More

We enjoyed staying at the Minnewaska Lodge. We had a cliff view room with a deck, which I would recommend highly. The room was comfortable and clean with hairdryer, iron and ironing board and TV. We also enjoyed sitting in the great room in the evening. The great room is where breakfast is served from 8-10AM every day. The continental... More

We loved to stay here, the atmosphere is relaxed yet very nice. I enjoy the room quality, the staff are super helpful and the outdoors are so peaceful. So many close by locations to discover. Farms, restaurants, parks and much more to see. I reccomend to anyone who like a relaxed spot like this.
