The old barn dates back to the 1700s and is the perfect setting for a rustic country wedding. We stayed through Harvest Hosts, but they also rent cabins, a farmhouse, RV spots, and a glamping barn. The property also has a wood-fired sauna, cold plunge, and a creekside swimming hole--such a relaxing and memorable stay!

Back when my fiance and I were searching for our perfect venue to host our wedding, we already knew…read morewe wanted a barn themed wedding. We went to visit a few locations, and searched many more online for days on weeks. It was when we stumbled upon this venue that we knew our search was over. Owls Hoot Barn checked off every box we wanted in a wedding venue. There were even factors we had not necessarily considered in a venue that OHB was and to deliver without fail. The grounds of venue - gorgeous, the owner and her entire family/team - most amazing people you can find, decor and supplies - everything we wanted and needed, overall experience - exactly what you would expect when you think of a small piece of paradise/heaven! And this also includes the fact that our beloved pups were allowed to be on the grounds and partake in our special day! The owner of the venue, who was also our wedding coordinator, went above and beyond to help us arrange everything we needed to make it wedding perfect. Even going as far to come back on site for our rehearsal dinner during her own wedding anniversary! How many people would be willing to do that? Her passion for ensuring every couple out there sees their vision fulfilled is truly one that is undeniable and unique. We could not have pulled this off, let alone reduce our wedding planning stress significantly, without her help. My now wife, our current (and future pups) and myself now have found a place we don't just refer to as a hidden gem, but a small place we can call another home. For any future couples out there, whether you are considered local or coming from another state of the U.S. entirely, you will fall in love with OHB. My wife probably would think I shouldn't leave too long of a review as some people might think "that one is too long to read" but I can't help express how much we truly were blessed with this place...so much that even to this day we joke about doing it all over again just to relive our wedding weekend back in October 2025. For any current/future couples out there searching for a wedding venue in Hudson Valley, NY...this place should absolutely be #1 on your list!

I feel guilty about this review but it wasn't great…read more Negatives: The walls here are thin, if someone is above you, you will hear their every step as a stomp. Sleep quality was shot. As well, the beds/ pillows are not comfortable at all. Felt like I slept on a pull out couch. Breakfast/ coffee were worse than most other hotels I've been to. If it snows, the entrance to and from is rough to travel on. I've stayed in roughly 20 hotels in the last year and this was easily my least favorable experience .

This place is conveniently right off I-90. What I truly enjoy is they have a gas station next door with a drive through Dunkin' Donuts with lots of goodies (Get there early for the donuts). The reception area is actually pretty impressive - high ceiling, gas fireplace, multiple sitting areas, with stairs leading up to where they offer very comprehensive breakfast each day. Plenty of sitting room with large tables. The person in charge of the area is extremely nice and very efficient. They went through a major renovation and the place looks great! The rooms are clean, with plenty of work area and good WiFi, which is great when you have a lot of work to do. It's your typical hotel experience.

We really hit pay dirt when it came to the inns of Vermont this past vacation. Each inn we had…read morechosen throughout Vermont was VERY tastefully appointed, and while our rooms were all quite differently decorated, they were each beautiful, not to mention, CLEAN, no matter where we stayed!! However, here at Four Chimneys Inn, we loved it so much, we asked if we could stay another night, and they said YES ! Our first night was spent in a red and yellow decorated room, which was very spacious and comfortable. The bed and pillows were super comfy ! It was room #11 and on the first floor. Our second night was spent next door in #10, and those colors were creams, blues and muted gray. For some reason, my camera picked up mostly the gray and left very little color to view, which is weird, because there was a lot of blue, which I actually preferred to the red and yellow room. The room was perhaps a bit smaller, but it was still VERY spacious and more than enough room for the 2 of us. Again, the bed and pillows were super comfy. I think I liked this second room more, if nothing else, than because of the colors. Blues, grays and creams just spoke to me more than reds and yellows. I felt more at home, I guess. Both rooms had fireplaces, but in disgusting 90+ degree heat/humidity, no thank you. On the first night of our stay, the inn's restaurant was closed, but when we unexpectedly extended our stay by one night, that also opened the possibility of dining in-house, which thrilled our tired bodies like you wouldn't believe. We didn't feel like doing anymore driving, so we stayed put and ended up having an elegant dinner at Four Chimneys Inn. Breakfast the next morning was included with the price of each night's stay, but we only availed ourselves to breakfast after our second night's stay. (See separate review for the restaurant.) The inn staff was incredibly kind and friendly, not to mention, helpful. If ever we get to return to Bennington, Vermont, there is NO DOUBT that we'd find our way back to staying at the Four Chimneys Inn. Everything about this place is inviting, friendly, comfortable, quaint and charming.

This is not a food destination. The Castle has a limited menu, not offering cocktails or apps. We ordered a basic bottle of red, Apothic. Ciabatta bread was served, but there was no sign of bread plates. My husband ordered the salmon, and I ordered the braised short rib. Both were mid, not much flavor, and the table didn't even offer salt and pepper. When I requested it, it was graciously provided. Each meal came with an historical salad, circa Alexander the Great. When our meals came, they were warm, served with unimaginative vegetables. They did offer a purple carrot, a unicorn in Amsterdam. In a spectacular location like this, they could do a killing if their food was as unique and as inspired as their ambience. The service was solid. Everyone we encountered did their best to meet our needs. They were obviously kind people. At $140 for two with gratuity, this was steep for what we got.

Brunch was nice too - a concise yet interesting, inclusive menu of unconventional dishes. Hotel is right at the end of Warren street with ample parking making it convenient to walk, dine, shop & return in no time. The lobby is open till midnight which is also better compared to other small town lodges that typically close at 9-10. While RTL maybe listed as a 2-star hotel, it's still an expensive option. However, it doesn't compromise on your experience & I'd recommend a stay here when in Hudson.

Loved the decor all around and that many things had been thought out for the guests. We were on a road trip and just stumbled upon it, but wish we could have stayed more than 1 night.

Definitely recommend this place.

Best mountain for families! Best ski school (all three kids…read morelearned/are learning on it) my two oldest are exceptional skiers and very safe. The mountain is not too small and not too large so perfect for families with kids. Affordable to actually stay on the mountain which is a must with little ones. Christiansens is a solid restaurant with good food and great beer with the perfect ski mountain atmosphere. The snowmaking team (Team Snowmagedon) knows what they are doing. While other mountains north or nearby are struggling, Jiminy has the good snow. They do well to combat the elements or rain or warmer weather. We always have a great time!!

A decent skiing mountain, but definitely on the pricey side. We went with the 3-to-close ticket,…read morewhich was $67--significantly higher than the $30 range we've experienced at other resorts. No discount for Wyndham owners Unfortunately, many trails were closed the night we went, leaving limited skiing options. To be fair, this was likely due to the conditions at the time. The mountain itself is decent , and it's incredibly convenient if you're staying at the Wyndham. Being a ski-in/ski-out resort with access to ski lockers is a big perk, making it a solid choice for Wyndham guests. However, for the cost and limited trail availability, it might not be the best value if you're coming from elsewhere. One thing to note: even if you buy your tickets online , you still have to go to the ticket counter to pick up your RFID badge. This felt inconvenient, especially since we were staying at the Wyndham and wanted to ski on directly from the resort. Overall, it's worth it for convenience, but there's room for improvement.

I recently stayed a few nights at The Morgan State House Inn and had a mostly pleasant stay…read more I thought I was staying in their main house, but they actually had my room a couple doors down in some studios that are apparently also part of the inn. Not a big deal, but I don't know that this is something you'll really know until check-in. The building a few doors down where I stayed also appeared to be historic though a bit less grand on the main level than the main house. The lobby of the building was festively decorated for the holiday. With the bright windows, a sofa, Christmas music playing, and a tree twinkling, one afternoon I couldn't resist getting a little work done in the lobby. My room was cozy with a small kitchenette, bed, arm chairs, and desk. The arm chairs are cute but not very comfortable. The desk was perfectly positioned overlooking the windows, which made for a great spot to work. The bed was pretty uncomfortable and probably needs to be replaced (it was sinking on both sides with a high spot in the middle). For my solo traveling girlies: +The inn is not staffed all night +Doors have old fashioned keys, deadbolts, and chains +The surrounding neighborhood seems nice and safe enough +Parking is slightly off site and requires walking around the block or through the back of the property. If you don't need to bring a car, I'd opt for uber +I think there may be some permanent residents in the additional property (a couple doors down from the main house) All and all, it's a beautiful, historic property, which is one of my favorite sorts to stay in. I wouldn't likely stay there again solo, but would absolutely stay with my partner!

I feel bad giving this place a less than perfect score as the staff were nice and helpful, but it…read morefell short in some important areas. The main one being that I was unable to enjoy the tub as much as I would have liked. The first night the jets didn't work, and someone was nice enough to come by the next day and fix it. Later that night I was looking forward to finally using the tub as intended (and even cancelled a spa day for it) but the other guests had already used all of the hot water by then. I left without getting much of any enjoyment from the tub, which is the main reason I booked the room in the first place. The other issue was the parking situation, which, to be fair, I should have anticipated before booking, considering its location. The parking spot doesn't come with the room, so you must pay extra to access it, and finding it in the dark after dinner is not easy when you have to follow a paper map and there is a line of cars behind you. Walking back to the inn alone in the dark was also pretty unsettling. Overall, this experience was the opposite of relaxing. I will say that the property is very pretty, though, and seemed to be clean.

I stayed here only one night but it's the perfect place to stay at near downtown Troy. Highly recommend the Venezuelan spot right nearby "Oh Corn!" and Jacob Alejandro for some delicious coffee. The room was very clean, cozy and cold. The perfect way you want it! The blackout curtains kept all the light out and during the day it had some amazing natural light coming in. The lobby area is perfectly equipped with lots of TVs, booths, seating areas for business meetings or just getting some work done and hanging out. Overall, great place to stay at if you're in the area. There's so much to do in Troy and so many fun local businesses to visit!

Nice clean modern hotel, but noisy…read more We stayed a night at Courtyard by Marriott of Troy for 1 night in Feb 2025 while visiting RPI. The hotel is super clean and looks and feels like recently built. Mattress was comfortable, the curtains provided full darkness, the climate unit worked smoothly, and the bathroom was excellent and clean. Location is very convenient, close to highway exit. That would be a perfect stay, but unfortunately there was a serious problem with noise coming from the highway and Hudson bridge next to the hotel. Buses, trucks, motorcycles, crazy road racers, etc. - we heard all of them, especially as the morning was approaching. The noise was heard even with earplugs, though this way it was tolerable. Hotel in such location must have sound proof windows. We've been to many hotels next to highways but never had a problem with noise. Had to read other people's reviews. We can recommend this hotel for those for whom heavy road noise is not an issue.
