We stayed for several nights at the Eagles Nest Cabin with our 2 dogs. The pictures do not match the occupancy furniture. It needs lots of repairs, specially the carpets. We found garbage under the sofa cushions. Some outside lights aren't working properly. Very dark at night. It looks creepy and out of time, like the 70s era. Too overpriced.

Went here for a long weekend and had a great time. Service from Matt the Inn keeper was incredible and friendly. He never hesitated to offer assistance or recommendations. Breakfast was delicious and lunch was a nice addition. We took our dog and she had a great time walking the property and going out on the rowboats. There are ticks and wildlife in the area so you have to be mindful. This is a place to go if you want to relax and enjoy a little bit of the outdoors. It's not a place to go if you're looking to party or for an unlimited amount of activities. We took advantage of the trail, the tennis court, the free board games, the fire pit and, most importantly, the lake. Great stay and would definitely like to go back.

I've visited this inn twice in the last two years now. Both times have been fantastic and remarkably consistent stays. Matt, the innkeeper/host extraordinaire, was super friendly and knowledgeable and set the vibe of the stay at a "just relax and do you" feel. Breakfast in the room was great but breakfast on the veranda cannot be beat. The area is lush and within a twenty minute drive are all kinds of places to eat and hiking trails. The inn's grounds themselves are great and it gets dark enough at night to see really see the stars. All you city folk should experience this at least once. My absolute favorite thing though was the in room Jacuzzi. For me it was the perfect thing for a relaxing getaway. Me and my partner will be returning guests for a long time.

Loved my stay at this bed and breakfast. Absolutely gorgeous woodsy setting. I was booking last minute and the host was extremely kind and accommodating. Hospitality was top tier. I'm excited to visit again, especially when the lake has thawed for swimming or boating (which along with other outdoor equipment the inn has available). There's also an excellent well marked walking trail along the lake and into the woods.

What an absolute treasure! Our dog, Wednesday, learned how to swim with confidence for the first time here! She’s tried before at other places, but this lake in particular is shallow enough that she dives in all by herself :) We’ve never seen her so happy before and she is in general the sweetest happiest dog there is, so this place blew us away simply by her reaction. The breakfast is sooo good! Depending on the room, it can get a bit expensive, but I’m going to be honest, saving up is so worth it! There’s so much provided to you and we felt right at home. Not to mention Matt is so good at responding! On call 24/7 and is extremely polite. We love it so much we’ll be back that we’re actually going back next month! We can’t wait to see our dogs reaction when we get there. She will definitely jump for joy as will we!

I was completely surprised when my sweet hubby told me this was what/where he planned our anniversary trip this year. (To be fair, we have 4 kids and haven't been away for an anniversary since we had #1! Way overdue!) The innkeeper Matt was an amazing human; kind, gentle, punny, caring. 😊 The room was beautiful & I loved the hot tub and double shower, along with a little fireplace! Romantic, and masseuse came to our room for our couple massage! The service was fantastic & the food was AMAZING!!! REALLY DELICIOUS! The area is also gorgeous and I'm already excited to plan another trip back since we did mostly R&R for this 1 day 2 night trip. ❤️

Nice but slightly worn. The grounds are pretty, but the local race course makes you feel like you need earplugs when taking a walk in the forest. The staff is friendly.

Been here a few times. Area is great, beautiful woods, lake, pool. Nice fire pit. Rooms are all unique and cozy, true cabin feel but with luxury features like whirlpools. Some of the furniture needs updating/cleaning but overall ok. Matt is a wonderful host. Very kind and helpful. Goes out of his way to make you feel comfortable. Love the breakfast as always! Pet friendly place so you will always find other dogs there. :)

This is definitely a nice relaxing place especially for a couples weekend. The staff is extremely friendly and accommodating. The building and grounds have a rich history. The rooms are antique looking but are nice. The biggest issue I had was the bed was extremely uncomfortable and the majority of local restaurants do not deliver to this location.

Lovely inn. Rustic yet beautiful place. If you need to get away from the hectic & fast pace this is the place for you. Watch the lake. Go row a boat. Swim at the pool. Take a nap at the hammock. Ride a bike. Walk on a trail. So much things to do. And plus breakfast in the morning is a bliss! Inn keeper Matt was so nice and attentive! Thank you for lovely weekend!

We love it here! We’ve been twice in four years and plan to go back over and over again. It’s become our place. Gorgeous rooms, beautiful views, secluded pool with a view of mountains and never crowded. Many times I had it to myself. Bicycles to ride around or ride to the lake….kayak, row boats, hammocks, hammock swings, more books than you can imagine to choose from. Chess, billiards… nuns, used to live on these grounds, the main house will take you back in time it’s meticulously kept up. The old barn has been made into brooms with vaulted ceilings, decks, Jacuzzi tubs for two with a view. Homemade breakfast every morning— sit in the dining room or outside or have it delivered to your room. It’s encouraged to mingle with guests. It’s not formal. If you just like to be around good people looking for seclusion and peace— you will love it here. Matt is an excellent host, no clue how he takes care of all of this and manages to talk to every guest, never makes you feel like you’re keeping him from something when we clearly are lol The grounds are impressive. Eric and his team do an excellent job. Thank you thank you thank you.

Our stay at the Inn at Lake Joseph was exceptional from start to finish. Upon arrival we were greeted by Matt the inn keeper who was welcoming and helped us get ourselves sorted out while offering advice on local eateries and things to do. The property itself is very peaceful with plenty of activities from hiking trails, bike riding, fire pit, and much more. We stayed in the Hemlock room which we immediately fell in love with. I look forward to my next stay at the Inn. On a side note, after checking out I received a call from Matt stating someone had found my sunglasses. Without hesitation Matt offered to mail me the glasses. Truly 5 star service all around, highly recommend. Also the breakfast is magnificent.

The Inn at Lake Joseph was the perfect spot for us to relax on our mini-moon. First, the service is excellent. Matt is so warm, friendly, and wants to make sure everything is going great. Next, the space is rustic, romantic, and charming. I love that it's tucked away, so peaceful and quiet. Our room (Cedar) was superb. We loved the warm fire place, spacious jacuzzi, our own deck, etc, etc. We loved starting each day on the lake (row boats and kayaks), where one morning we saw a bald eagle! They serve breakfast and picnic lunches. The breakfast can be served in their main lounge or at your room. We appreciated being able to eat in our room by the fire in the mornings. Lastly, we love the area that it's in. There are so many fun destinations to visit in the surrounding area. Overall, we highly recommend the Inn at Lake Joseph for anyone who wants a relaxing getaway. We will certainly be back for anniversaries!

We needed a vacation desperately but have a puppy that does not do well in boarding. So my solution was to find somewhere we could bring him. The Inn is very pretty and Matt, the innkeeper we met, was extremely nice and accommodating. I was actually pretty impressed with how dog-friendly the place is. Off leash is allowed in most areas, though I highly recommend just having a long lead in case your dog spots a deer (ours did and disappeared into the woods for a scary 4 minutes). Also this goes without saying but your dog must be good with other dogs and strangers because we met a lot of folks, all of whom struck up conversations with us which was a nice change from our norm. Our dog is very playful and made many doggy friends. I really love that breakfast and lunch are provided and there's an option to have breakfast delivered to your room in the mornings. I was impressed with the toiletries supplied - bath oils, makeup remover wipes, feminine hygiene disposal bags, cotton balls, I'm forgetting some things, but clearly someone was very thoughtful. The room (we reserved "dogwood") was fine, the balcony was very nice, the shower had two shower heads which I didn't know I needed, and it was overall quite cozy but a little dated. You must try the French toast (made with challah bread), and you must take advantage of the fire pit maintained at night, it's very nice to sit by the fire and listen to nature. For dinner we went to the tavern that's close by which I recommend if you like theater. overall a lovely vacation for those looking to get away from it all and be in nature.

From beginning to end, our experience at the inn was amazing. We were welcomed and given a tour upon arrival. Our room had a rustic vibe with a fully upgraded bathroom, a sun deck, and a separate balcony which was very nice. The grounds are beautiful and the pool area was super relaxing. We took a rowboat on the lake, which was not crowded at all and so peaceful. They have amazing breakfasts and the bagged lunches are perfect for being on the go during the day. The fire pit with marshmallows was a nice touch at the end of the night. Matt was so accommodating and had the fire pit lit upon request. Of course the best part was that they are dog friendly! Our pup had the time of his life! There is an amazing Italian restaurant nearby that also let us bring our puppy to dinner. Overall, it was every bit as peaceful and rejuvenating as I imagined. I want to thank everyone there for an amazing experience and I look forward to coming back!

If you are looking for peace, quiet and comfort, this is the place to be. Great breakfast and picnic bag lunch included. Beautiful property. Yes, older but quaint. All needs are taken care of. Every room has a whirlpool tub and fireplace. Would love to go back in summer if price is right.

Had a really great experience here with my family + my dog! The rooms are super cozy and warm, and the breakfast / lunches were a really great addition to the accommodation. We hiked the trail & went skiing nearby given the season, but it seems like it’d be a great place to go back to in the spring / fall as well! Thanks Matt & team!

A beautiful and peaceful Inn. The Staff was excellent. Helpful in many ways to make one's experience a delightful memory.

I dint get a curve to a spend the night here, i really appreciate the proprietor for allowing me to charge my tesla and take time to show me the property. I look forward to driving up north to stay here very soon

Stayed here for my 50th birthday and had the perfect weekend. The property is so quiet and beautiful with a private lake for boating. The room/jacuzzi were clean, Sleep Number bed was comfortable and I love that they repurposed the old horse barn doors as a head board. Matt is a very kind, thoughtful and attentive inn keeper and we loved the breakfast he brought to our deck everyday.

We stayed at the Inn for a long weekend, 3 nights in total just this month of September. On the plus sides, the location is fantastic, with beautiful hiking trails, wild life and Matt, the host was very kind and would happily provide guidance and asked several times if we were comfortable. Breakfast is generous and fairly tasty. Having tennis courts onsite was a big plus and it is possible to swim on the lake or at the swimming pool. The room was clean as compared to many other hotels I visited, which helps balance the fact that rooms and a the place is old and need a serious refurbishing! On the minus side, the pictures do not give a fair description of the place which looks more old than cozy in reality. The staff although very kind does not have experience with children making the place not ideal if traveling with a baby. We were put in a room upstairs despite mentioning that we have a one year old child a few days before arrival. The place does not have cribs or high chairs and do not serve dinner so we had to drive to the nearest town for dinner, all not convenient when traveling with a baby. Everyone is asleep at 9.30 pm when we arrived and we did not want to disturb even if I am sure the staff will respond to our needs. It is not a place where you can have a drink or a quiet evening in the common areas after dinner. All rooms have carpets, which is not ideal if you have allergies and/or a crawling baby as this is not a hygenic especially knowing that it is a pet friendly hotel. Rooms are not serviced during the stay, you have to ask for your bed and rooms to be tided up which the staff happily took care of when we asked. But the servicing was below par, the bed was barely made, the bathroom sink, toilet and shower not wiped or sanitized. The used mugs were not exchanged for clean ones, we had to wash our used coffee mugs ourselves to use them again. The bed linens are performance sheets which if you get hot while sleeping is not ideal. We may go back because of the location and the kindness of the staff but it will be a compromise on our comfort standards... Overall not great value for the money

My wife and I came to Inn at Lake Joseph from New Hampshire for our 29th anniversary. We loved it here. The accommodations were very comfortable and the hospitality was terrific. You have your choices for breakfast and a bagged lunch every day by filling out the menus the day before. We didn't take advantage of the lunch, but breakfast was amazing!!! We brought our dog with us and she loved it too. We were always treated by a visit from the deer each day. The are continuously roaming the property so you are likely to see them on one of your walks on the trails.

We didn't stay there but drove there from Callicoon to see what we missed. The inn is right by the lake but very remote. We had a nice walk around the trail. Certainly, fishing would be great. We saw a huge splash near the boat launching pad. Must be a bass chasing some fries.

Absolutely lovely property and the innkeepers and hosts are kind and personable. The rooms are warm and comfortable and what a find that they are pet friendly. We brought our dog and she was very happy. Nice trail around the lake, good for an early morning hike after breakfast. The bagged lunches are quite good as well.. Some good hiking in the area.

What an awesome experience we had at the Inn at Lake Joseph! I had a feeling from the first phone call I made to book our stay that we were going to be in good hands & I was right! Checking in with Matt was great, he told us everything we needed to know & was always available to answer any questions. Our accommodations were perfect, we travel quite a bit but how often can you stay somewhere with your dogs that is clean, comfortable, complete with a cozy fireplace & so many amenities provided for you! A full breakfast & a to-go lunch is included, & we had a great time hiking with our dogs, checking out the beautiful lake, then going back to our room & the dogs immediately plopped down in front of a roaring fire! It’s a peaceful place & we’d definitely like to check it out in the summer!

What a wonderful way to celebrate our 30th anniversary!!! Matt, you are truly a wonderful person and so genuine! Thank you for making our stay so relaxing! The lake is so majestic and the view is amazing! The breakfast was delicious and the picnic lunch is good too! The room met our expectations and the whirlpool bath is great as well and the sleep number bed was quite comfortable too. Will be back for sure! Definitely recommend!! This place has such a cool vintage vibe and so worth it!!

I needed a pet friendly room at the last minute for one night during a construction project. Matt was so accomodating and helped me right out. The room was so cozy and the sleep number bed can be adjusted to your desired support. The whirlpool tub was awesome and they had a really nice selection of scented oils to choose from to add to the water. We had our own balcony deck to use and a fireplace in the room with a timer. I never sleep well in hotels and I slept like I was at home. The room was very quiet and we did not hear any other activity in our room. The breakfast was quite good and they deliver it to the room, if requested. I didn't partake in the activities due to the circumstance of the stay, but the grounds are beautiful and I could imagine anyone enjoying hiking around with their pets on a stay here.

Stayed mid March for a birthday getaway for hubby, loved that we could bring the dog (Dogwood Room, had a neat layout). The lake activities weren't available yet but we enjoyed the property and the quiet, as well as the fireplace and tub. Service was excellent and the property clean. Included meals were great. By the end of the weekend we felt refreshed and plan to go back. Excellent place for couples. Thanks to the whole team for a great escape!
