For those looking to enjoy Mohonk Mountain House for the day (not overnight guest) day reservations (includes lunch) are required. Ate at The Granary (outdoor BBQ) which was about $65/pp, which included tip/admin fee. The buffet indoors is more. This includes access to the grounds. Hiking was spectacular. Very scenic, views are incredible. Lots of nature. Food was great. Tea time and cookies at 4pm is a great way to end the day. If you are hiking bring necessary items (e.g. water.) Lots of different trails to hike, a favorite is "the lemon squeeze" which consists of hiking and climbing rocks, as well as, going through small areas and hard to get areas to reach Sky Top. Conditions need to be perfect to do that. You can still reach Sky Top with other trails, though. Parking is very close to hotel. If you're looking just to hike and don't want to eat or access the hotel, they charge a fee of about $30/pp and you'll have to park at the bottom and hike up the mountain (about 2 miles) to begin.
