Garnet Hill Lodge was perfect for our ski and snowboard getaway. The lodge staff was extremely friendly, kind and helpful. They made us feel right at home. Check in and check out were super easy. They have their own Nordic Ski trails which were awesome and the complimentary breakfast and sandwich bar for lunch were perfect for a day on the slopes. 10/10 would stay again.

My only complaint would be the breakfast buffet which is nowhere near as good as it used to bed. Excellent cold cuts were provided at breakfast since there is not lunch dining option. The renovated rooms are very nice.

Just lovely

Lovely property. Stayed in one of the “cabins.” It was a beautiful setting and comfy room. HOT Breakfast is included. The restaurant was great. They have a hangout area for the kids. The main lodge was like aspen ski vibes. Went cross country skiing and hiking. Great spot!

We loved staying in the tea house cottage with our infant. Lots of room, beautiful space, quiet. We stayed in early September and enjoyed the beach and some light hiking. We've also stayed here in the winter for skiing/snowshoeing. A great resort!

Enjoyed a couple of days staying at Garnet Hill lodge. The Tea Room was large, clean, and excellent for a family stay. Very convenient to Gore mountain for downhill skiing and offers cross country skiing onsite. Friendly guests and staff made it enjoyable and the view of the lake from the dining room is spectacular. Looking for to another visit soon!

Such a beautiful old rustic lodge , everyone of the staff was patient , kind and very accommodating. We were not able to ski due to the snow conditions but that gives me another reason to visit again .

We stayed in January 2025. We loved the friendly, kind staff and the quaintness of the lodge. Sitting by the fire nightly reading and chatting with other guests was a highlight. The breakfast was fantastic! We also appreciated the bag lunch that we created before going out snowshoeing. We loved our room at the Tea House which was on the snowshoe trail. The room was great; could have used several more coat hooks for our towels and snow attire. We rented snowshoes on property at the Outdoor center. The staff was super helpful and nice! Snowshoed up the mountain, it was a spectacular view!! Would love to revisit in the summer!

Old school hotel, kind of like an Adirondack camp. Bed was very comfortable and surroundings very quiet. Decor very rustic and camp like. The staff was very nice and friendly. Have a tv and billiard room to watch tv and movies with puzzles and board games. Very undeveloped surroundings so plan to hang out at the hotel in the evenings.

Our stay was awesome. It is a very beautiful, peaceful location. Love that it is so remote and quiet, Wi-Fi was spotty and there were not tv’s in the rooms which I thought was awesome! Lots of hiking and mountain biking trails. Dinner was great, was hoping for more of a local craft beer selection but the happy hour was nice. Will definitely go back and stay longer than 2 nights. All the staff we dealt with were great and super friendly. A definite must see.
