Beautiful property that looks like it is right out of the movie . They were a little short staffed so dining service was a little slow but every staff member was so kind and attentive. Lots of great trails surrounding the property. Don’t forget your bug spay!!!! The pool and hot tub were nice .

This place is very special, whether you're a fan of Dirty Dancing or not. Its location is just beautiful, so peaceful and totally immersed in its surroundings. There are so many lovely trails where the only sound is birdsong. No planes overhead, trains or traffic. That's a rare thing in the US!! The Dirty Dancing info and scenes are realy well done, we loved it all!
Stunning views on one of the trails out the back of the lodge.

The mountain to get up to the resort is very steep and tight turns our car smoked when we reached the top!! As a resort I thought food would be free but it was horribly expensive for mediocre quality food. Paid 700 dollars to stay in a room with no ac no microwave or refrigerator or tv, what little WiFi we had was bad signal this place was overpriced and overrated I will not come back nor recommend this money pit!!!

A must for Dirty Dancing fans

If you are a fan of the movie, you have to go here! So many movie locations. We stayed in the Chestnut Lodge which was spacious and nicely decorated. We had dinner at the Tavern, which was fine but with very stressed “servers”/bartenders who dropped many f-bombs while they seemed quite overwhelmed. Service there not great so maybe the other dining option would be better. Other than that, absolutely loved it here. Total bucket list hotel.

When they say rustic, please understand this involves a hike uphill to your room from the bottom parking lot, no elevators, and no TV in the rooms. We were told AT CHECK OUT the main lodge is the largest on property but the only one with no TVs. All this would have been ok if advertised as such. I could have reserved something more accommodating. Just don’t see the appeal. Room was just ok, best thing was the decor in the bathroom was cute. The drive up there is nice, was the best part to us.

Disappointing

The room I initally booked was a "multi unit", definitely did not get the right room. Also asked for a mountain view as written on the website, didn't get that either. Although I enjoy wooded areas, it was not what I paid for per the site; you couldn't see anything past the trees. Cleanliness wise, there was a chip and empty alcohol bottle underneath my bed so I guess it wasn't cleaned that well. And while I understand a lot of this hotel is historic and they try and minimize changes, some things do need to be fixed and/or replaced. All of the windows were opened when we arrived and being on a mountain, it of course gets very cold at night. We had a hell of a time closing them as multiple were broke or the wood was warped in some way. The highlight of the stay was Evelyn at the Kellerman's gift shop, she had so much extra knoweldge on the Dirty Dancing history tied to the hotel and was extremely friendly!

Pro: It is very secluded and quiet, the staff are nice, it is extremely peaceful up in the mountains. Con: The main appeal seems to be nostalgia for fans of the film "Dirty Dancing". There is no air conditioning in the lodge, and there is really only one place to eat. The hotel room had no fridge, and everything was extremely dated. The room was tiny, just barely enough room to fit the bed, desk, and dresser. The lake is all but dried up as well, greatly reducing the views on order. I am not generally negative in reviews, but anyone wanting to stay here needs to know what to expect.
