This hotel is not upscale by any means but if your heading to Hunter Mountain for a weekend of skiing, you won't find a better location. The rooms are on the older side but are large and clean. The breakfast was simple but did the trick. I would stay again because of the fantastic price and even better location. More

I had looked for a few places that were not to pricey but still convenient to everything I needed. I was worried about past reviews but I decided to tough it up and let me tell you I'm glad that I had. It looked as though from past reviews that it has had recent updates since. The customer service was... More

Every year I attend the Mountain Jam festival at Hunter Mountain, NY. I could not believe my good fortune when I found Forester Lodge. It’s a hidden treasure, right at the foot of the mountain! I couldn't be happier with the room rates, the location, my room and the staff. The hotel very close to Hunter Mountain, so it was... More

Since it's a reort area they overcharge for terribly maintained rooms. Go to Cairo or East Durham, and you'll make out better cashwise and otherwise: food casual dining and taverns. More

I booked 2 rooms for one stay with 3 other friends. I expected it to be a low budget place but was out of options because the other hotels were booked. The location to Hunter is wonderful but once you turn down the street for the hotel and see it in the distance, I just wanted to turn right back.... More
