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

I happened to plan my ski trip a week ahead for a long weekend but most recommended hotels were sold out. Finally go this one and booked for 2 nights. Reviews were not good but I had no option left. But this place surprised me. Right in front of Hunter mountain. 8 miles (10 mins) from Windham mountain. Room was... More

This place was a huge disappointment. Their establishment is nothing like they picture on their website. To start, the office was dirty and smelled horrible. We got in the room, and the carpets were absolutely filthy, there were stains on the futon mattress, and the springs were not in good condition. The window in the bedroom would not shut all... More

We arrived around 4:40 and my wife & daughter went in to the "office", exiting with quite a disgusted look on their faces. I went inside with my two canes and saw (and smelled) the thin, dirty carpet, a large room with no windows, and a dimly lit, cluttered desk at the far end. No one was there and we... More
