Mohonk Mountain House is a one-of-a-kind refuge situated in the Hudson Valley (90 miles north of New York City). When I lived in New York City, I enjoyed several stays here. It is a year round adventure, but fall, when all the trees turn orange is just glorious.

Mohonk Mountain House

Whatever you love to do, I bet you will find it at Mohunk Mountain House. It has so much to offer – views, hiking trails, mountain biking, swimming, kayaking, incredible dining, a spa, and much much more. There are quaint wooden gazebos located in various spots along the hiking trail which makes for romantic stops along the way. 

Founded by the Smiley Family in 1869, this Victorian castle resort is surrounded by 40,000 acres of pristine forest. This National Historic Landmark resort is a destination, no need for pre-trip planning…everything you you desire is on the property.

The main dining room offers breathtaking views of the property, and the food is superb. CLICK HERE to read an article in the New York Times.
