Skaneateles Historic District Vacation Packages

Room was very clean. Check in desk not very welcoming. Wouldn't hurt to smile a bit. Gardens need attention outside. Mary in the dining room is your greatest asset. But at her age, how much longer will she be willing to work? Then you've got nobody there. She is always friendly and helpful on the floor, and quick to clean tables. Even brought something to my table that I had forgotten. She is so well appreciated I saw guests taking their photo with her. All other dining personnel leave much to be desired. Never a good morning or smile, Didn't even show any recognition I was there. One morning I had to eat outside in the cold breeze due to no tables available. BRING BACK the tables removed from the adjacent room. Some tables were empty, but had dirty dishes and spills. No one in sight to clean them. I waited. No one showed. Short of staff that they need to stay in the kitchen instead of being on the floor? One staff I asked a question, but got no verbal response. Just a hand motion. Not everyone speaks English enough to converse?? One staff came out and took hot food back into the kitchen to eat. The Menu has changed from before, and not to make things better. Hotel disregards our health feeding unhealthy high fat hot foods. Look for example at those Jimmy Dean wrapped sandwiches. Unbelievable fat content. Bananas put out were half rotten. Utensil cups not kept filled, nor napkins. Eating breakfast there was not a pleasant experience.

We had an amazing stay and can't wait to come back! The cabin was absolutely beautiful—spotlessly clean, cozy, and surrounded by peaceful forest views. Having lake access made our stay even more special, whether it was relaxing by the water or taking in the quiet scenery. One of the highlights was the spa. The sauna, cold plunge, and wellness spaces were the perfect way to unwind after spending time outdoors. Everything about the property encourages you to slow down, disconnect, and enjoy nature. If you're looking for a peaceful getaway with beautiful cabins, lake access, and wonderful spa amenities, Vanderkamp is the perfect destination. We left feeling refreshed, relaxed, and already planning our next visit!

The fee for a small pet is taxed at 15%. This is highly unusual. Typically there is simply the fee within the 20-25 dollar range. Sometimes the rate be for each night. I only stayed two nights. This hotel charges $75 fee plus 15% rate. This rate should be published on Expedia where I booked so I could have made an informed choice. The high fee gives the impression that the hotel is luxury when in fact the coffee maker did not work, the molding in the bathroom was in need of cleaning and repair/paint and other small details that make for a luxury room. The microwave in the common area/lobby barely works. As a traveler I was looking for cleanliness and functioning amenities. The high fee for the pet plus 15% rate did not match the quality of this hotel.

The staff was very professional made me feel comfortable.
