After reading the reviews I was Leary. Unfortunately they were right no hot water. Even after letting the water run 20 minutes like they told us to. Didn’t matter much cause our cabin #70 only had a trickle coming out of the shower anyways. We ended up moving to the Days in. What a nice hotel.

I can’t believe Expedia does business with this place…. Appearances can be deceiving . The lobby check-in area looks five star soon as you leave that and they send you out because the rooms are in different locations around the property. Wow I hope I don’t offend anybody but I don’t think a crackhead would stay there. I should’ve listen to the reviews.

The staff was friendly and hospitable, but the resort was very clearly understaffed. There were one or two employees who seemed to run the show with multiple responsibilities. The wait times for food from the bistro kitchen were terribly long, and the food came out lukewarm. The servers were busy and un-attentive...we had to ask for everything, right down to the ice water. The facilities were outdated and in terrible condition. The heating in my cabin stopped working twice, as the breaker/circuit kept shorting. My friends also had issues with heating and plumbing in their rooms. Perhaps in the peak of summer this place has a better staff to take care of things, but overall we were underwhelmed and decided to just make the best of our stay. Next time we'll likely do our research and head somewhere else for a getaway.

The pictures do not represent the reality of the property. It says it's a 'resort' but our room was a motel/cabin room that had no windows in the front. There was an event that weekend for Crossdressers/Transgender folk, which we found out about when we arrived. I have no problem with people doing their thing but it's not our thing so it was awkward to be there. We left and I have had no success connecting with Travelocity to get a refund.

We were not expecting much for the price, but… At least hot water (they rigged the shower so it doesn’t give you hot water just lukewarm) and NO HEAT (AC only). Staff was nice and apologetic but extremely slow for dinner/breakfast. We missed the club, so we only stayed for the night. Your stay is literally just a small ROOM and bathroom with paper thin walls. We stayed at the Cherry Room Lodge, which looked like a two-family house converted to a bunch of rooms. You will hear everyone going in and out. It was such a disappointment as there is a community out there who would book this kind of resort, but the poor service and lack of basic amenities really dissuades us from coming back again. Do not expect: a fridge, microwave , hairdryer, warm blankets - not anything really.

We were very disappointed with the condition of the property. We had a king room which looked nothing like the rooms shown on their site. The room was poorly lit…one lamp in the entire room with a 15 watt bulb. Unable to read in the room and depressing to be in. Air conditioning did not work at night. Bathrooms appeared to be recently renovated but a 1/2 assed job. Tile work seemed unfinished. Hole in the door and peeling rusty pain on door frame. Safety latch on the door to the room was broken making us feel very unsafe. Staff had very limited proficiency of the English language. No pool towels. Our room was supposed to have a refrigerator per the description on the website. Ours did not have one. Minimal food. Night club was depressing. 10 people in the whole club. Pool chaises dirty and broken. Really a shame. The place has such potential but it’s clear that the people who are running the place don’t know what they are doing and don’t care to do the simplest things to make their guests feel welcome. I would not recommend the Rainbow Mountain Resort.

The manager was verbally abusive, and told me "YOU HAVE TO LEAVE", right after I put down ZERO as tip, for poor service. He yelled/screamed at me, in the public pool area. If he wanted me to leave all he had to do was ask to speak to me, like a gentleman, and I would have left. I actually filed a police report with PA State Police.

Rainbow Mountain Resort is NO LONGER a “resort.” The quality has deteriorated significantly over the past few years. And other than weekend meals; you are ON YOUR OWN M-F. No food service AT ALL; & due to location, VERY DIFFICULT to get a delivery. Best to skip this “Resort”.

Hotel is a little " Off." Cable TV in my room kept going OUT every 5 MIN! Lids for coffee in lobby DON'T fit! Tea bags but NO hot water! Friends were given a HARD time when they ordered Take-Out Delivery- were told they should be eating in their restaurant which is OVERPRICED! Prob why it's usually EMPTY!! At least the litter is getting picked up now! Last time I was there it would sit around for days!

My friends and I booked this trip in an attempt to replace previous experiences at the Raven in New Hope PA which has since been bulldozed. Our experience here is one we'll never repeat. The room was a tiny shack with no shower curtain, no trash cans, not enough towels for each guest, no hooks for towels, and extremely shabby (**with ZERO chic). The food was unpalatable. The hot tub looked like a petri dish. The drinks were mediocre. The worst part? It was WILDLY overpriced. Perhaps this would have been a funny, weird weekend away, except that it cost us the same as a NYC hotel room with zero perks. Deeply disappointed. Will never go back.
