This was a wonderful get-away find that I wish I could keep to myself. This Lodge has everything you could want; cozy clean updated rooms with a great view of the lake from your balcony, friendly engaging staff, delicious food so you don't have to leave for meals and close proximity to great hiking, private beach with kayaks and a activity center where you could rent different items based on the season. We loved it. Thank you so much!

Garnet Hill provided a very relaxing environment close to nature. The Tea House room was awesome, with separate spaces for sleeping and hanging out, plus a private sauna. How unique! Staff was great. Food yummyand generously portioned. They even made a special meal for us for our anniversary night. Don't expect a mainstream experience and you'll be impressed.

Garnet Hill Lodge was perfect for our ski and snowboard getaway. The lodge staff was extremely friendly, kind and helpful. They made us feel right at home. Check in and check out were super easy. They have their own Nordic Ski trails which were awesome and the complimentary breakfast and sandwich bar for lunch were perfect for a day on the slopes. 10/10 would stay again.

My only complaint would be the breakfast buffet which is nowhere near as good as it used to bed. Excellent cold cuts were provided at breakfast since there is not lunch dining option. The renovated rooms are very nice.

We stayed in January 2025. We loved the friendly, kind staff and the quaintness of the lodge. Sitting by the fire nightly reading and chatting with other guests was a highlight. The breakfast was fantastic! We also appreciated the bag lunch that we created before going out snowshoeing. We loved our room at the Tea House which was on the snowshoe trail. The room was great; could have used several more coat hooks for our towels and snow attire. We rented snowshoes on property at the Outdoor center. The staff was super helpful and nice! Snowshoed up the mountain, it was a spectacular view!! Would love to revisit in the summer!

Lovely property. Stayed in one of the “cabins.” It was a beautiful setting and comfy room. HOT Breakfast is included. The restaurant was great. They have a hangout area for the kids. The main lodge was like aspen ski vibes. Went cross country skiing and hiking. Great spot!
