We stayed at the Grove Lodge on mohonk mountain with family for Christmas and it was beautiful. Every room had an amazing bathroom, tall ceilings and a wonderful fire place. The main area is spacious and lovely. The staff were attentive. The breakfast/ lunch buffet was delicious. I only have two issues with the stay ... None of us could get hot water, it was luke warm to warm at best. I took a bath in the soaking tub and had the hot water all the way up with no cold on at all and it was barely hot enough to enjoy. Also the showers water pressure was abysmal. This was a problem for all of us at the Grove Lodge. Also the evening dinner service was okay the first night but Christmas dinner was a a terrible experience, they didn't have a big enough table to accommodate us even though we had a reservation then took thirty minute to figure out how to combine tables and instead of adding the long six tops together we got a giant square monster that you had to shout to talk to anyone. The drinks came out promptly but the food just never came we got there at 7 and we're finally served the dinner portion by nine something. One of the family's in our party had young kids she had to leave before she even ate her food to get something in them and get them to bed before 10pm. It was almost 11 before the night was over. We should have just stayed in and order room.service which OMG there fries are the best. Other than the dinner and the water the place was beautiful, full of tons of family activities and well accommodating.
