We have stayed at this property many times and we love the comfort of home feeling that we get. The rooms and property are very clean and well kept. The pool is large and very clean. The staff is always so accommodating and friendly. We will continue to come here again and again for a quick Catskills getaway.

First off, There is Colonial Motel and Colonial House. I was in the house. Overall, a good stay. Quiet (down right peaceful) and clean. It is an older house but clean. The only draw back was the bed was too soft. Some people may like it, but to soft for me.

This is an old style family owned motel and for what it is, it is quite good. It is extremely clean and for the price it is definitely worth it. I would definitely stay here again if I had any reason to go back to that area.

I stayed in the main house, 2nd floor, Queen Deluxe Room included micro, refrig, keurig and had an a/c unit. Very quiet, quaint, old-world charm. It was close to my family that still lives in G.G. and was convenient for what I needed. Would recommend for anyone that needs to compress from the hustle and bustle of life.

Stepped back in time

I had a room in the main house, built in the 1860s and loved it. They tried to keep some of the old world charm in the room with a huge tall queen size bed with a big pile of pillows, original cast iron radiator and even the slightly squeaky wood floors under the carpet. If you love old houses like i do, you'll love the old timey atmosphere. With mini fridge, coffee maker and microwave in the room you also had your modern touches. It was clean and staff was very friendly and accommodating.
