This Inn was amazing. We booked the Giraffe room for the weekend, and it was a great escape. Our room was super clean, a large jacuzzi tub, and very private. There was also a sauna room, gourmet kitchen, pantry with another stove, refrigerator, dish washer, fully stock with plates, and utensils. Additionally, there is a coffee bar and mini fridge stocked with bottled water. There is also a large common area with several leather sofa, and plenty of games. Another great feature is there is a bar area with a wine fridge. Shawn was amazing, he was very attentive and accommodating, he was right out front to greet us on arrival and gave a tour of the Inn. The decor was very nostalgic with decor from the original Catskill Game Farm. It was a great stay and looking forward to returning again.
