5 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 May 2013

My mom and I recently visited for Mother's Day weekend. As many people say, it was quite interesting to see the filming location of Dirty Dancing, but there was so much more to this beautiful place. Looking at pictures throughout the hotel, there is so much history to appreciate. There are beautiful cottages and and a hotel which was built... More

“Outstanding honeymoon destination.”

I surprised my wife by booking Mountain Lake Hotel for our honeymoon. Her favorite movie is Dirty Dancing so I thought this would be a real thrill for her and a great getaway for both of us. We were not disappointed. The staff welcomed us upon check-in where we were given the key to room 100, the parlor suite. The... More

“Worth visiting, but know some things in advance.....”

My husband and I decided to tack on 2 nights at the Mountain Lake Hotel after visiting our daughter at Virginia Tech for her Fall Break. She had mentioned a rather curvy road up to the hotel, but we had no idea that Rt. 700 (the one given by MapQuest and most direct)was that steep a climb and sort of... More

“Pleasant visit, pluses outweigh minuses”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 October 2012

I have never seen 'Dirty Dancing' and likely never will, but this long-established resort, where scenes in the movie were filmed, is only 25 miles from where I live, so I decided to pay a visit over the Columbus Day holiday. Having read the very mixed reviews, I had modest expectations. Happily, they were exceeded and the visit was a... More

We are very sorry for the inconvenience of your displacement.

This is a very unusual circumstance, and it was difficult for us to have... More

It was a trip back in time to 1966 for me as I booked us here for a week-end as we were attending the Virginia Tech football game in nearby Blacksburg. While the stone lodge and rustic cabins looked the same... the lake itself was almost bone dry as a result of the continued drought the last few years. The... More

“Overpriced, Outdated”

You know when somebody meets a celebrity and they say "I'm never going to wash my hand again!" That's kind of what's going on with MLHotel and Dirty Dancing. We stayed in the main hotel. The room was small, dusty and outdated. Walls are paper thin. Heater sounded like a Pinto with a hole in the exhaust. No TV. Cheap... More
