Our daughter is a student at SUNY Cortland. We always try to stay at Hope Lake Lodge since it's a beautiful resort with great amenities and fitness center just minutes away from Cortland. Staff is always professional and friendly! We love staying here and can't wait to book again!
This is a timeshare property near ski slopes. Restaurant was very good. Had we known, we would have brought a few groceries with us, as the room has a kitchenette.
We have stayed at this property multiple times. It is generally quiet, priced well, has a very good restaurant and bar area. It has a very nice outdoor area with a fireplace and ample seating. An overall excellent stay.
We loved this place! We were a group of 8 people- 2 families. 5 adults two kids and one infant. The water park was small but so fun. No lines at all for the slides. The arcade was fun for the kids and we loved our room- the River Rock Suite. The first night we had dinner at the restaurant and had great service and the food was good. Service was great overall. We will definitely return!
