Reviews and Ratings
The Whiteface Lodge exceeded my expectations, offering spacious and clean rooms with all the necessary amenities including a small kitchen and a washing machine. The recreational activities like air hockey, pool, bumper pool, and board games made the stay even more enjoyable. I loved the comfortable stay and the delightful touch of chocolate chip cookies. However, the location was a bit surprising with a good 20-minute drive to Whiteface mountain for skiing.
What a gem! The hotel offers huge suites with gas fireplaces, perfect for families with kids for both shared and private spaces. A luxurious stay with stunning rooms that are probably the best accommodation I've ever experienced, ideal for cozy gatherings.
