HOTEL OVERVIEW

Mohonk Mountain House stands at the heart of a magnificent 26,000-acre natural area in the Shawangunk Mountains, which is comprised of the resort property, private preserves, and a state park preserve. Tucked away near the top of the Shawangunk Ridge is Lake Mohonk, a half-mile long, 60-foot deep, freshwater lake where a sprawling Victorian castle stands guard. This is one of the last great 19th-century mountain resorts.

RECREATION
Overnight guests enjoy tennis, golf, lake swimming, boating and fishing, the comprehensive fitness center, indoor heated pool, and The Spa at Mohonk Mountain House, horseback riding, carriage rides, approximately 85 miles of hiking, walking and running trails, platform tennis, a putting green, and game rooms. In the winter, weather permitting, there is 35 miles of groomed cross-country ski trails, and snowshoeing. The Victorian Pavilion provides ice-skating from November through March. With the exception of horseback riding, carriage rides, weekend golf, and Spa services, recreation is complimentary to overnight guests.
