Walls paper thin, difficult time sleeping with listening to neighboring rooms and people in the hallways. Breakfast very low quality. No food service available for us, had to go to town. Which turned out nice, as... More

This spa does what it claims, WEIGHT LOSS fantastic food that is low calorie but you are not hungary. The exercise class are... More

Absolutely disgusting misleading deal. I bought a coupon for this by being led to believe this was for the real Hunter Mountain hotel and spa. I've been to the real hotel at hunter mountain and wanted to come back. Upon arriving, turned out that the only thing this place shares with Hunter Mountain is that it is indeed about 10... More

Its always difficult reading a bad review. We accommadated close to 1000 guests 2012/2013 season, and most were very happy. We are a weight loss retreat during the year and rent to skiers in the winter season. It is unfortunate that out of all the 100's of guests we have had, the negative reviews came from a handful of unhappy... More

Booked this deal on Groupon with lift tickets. My boyfriend and I were going up for the night just to ski for the day and leave in the morning. What a dump. This place is in need of a serious makeover. The room was disgusting, filthy and certainly outdated. The staff was as discourteous as possible upon arrival. After seeing... More

We stayed for three nights. While our room and other facilities are dated, we did not focus on that. Instead, we made friends with other two ladies staying here and customized the program and the food. We asked Chef Chris to cook what we liked and the instructors to take us on two hour walks. We feel very rested and... More
