Long Pond Natural Area

Stayed here for two weeknights mid-ish August 2026. Service was really great. Very professional and courteous. The rooms were nice enough. Ours was pretty spacious with a balcony with not much of a view (guess that is what you get for only $400/night). Pretty pricey during summer time. That said, the setting and grounds are spectacular. As they stress, a very traditional NE summer resort. We did not eat there at all and didn't partake of much of the entertainment they had to offer, but my daughters loved the ambiance, the historical buildings, the sunsets, and scenery. While we didn't partake of much of the entertainment, we could see it all around us. Regret is not spending enough time here (we treated it more like a hotel than a resort).

The rooms are somewhat dated, but fully functional. The hotel has two dining establishments attached and sells desserts at the desk as well. The pools and hot tub were great. A peaceful retreat overall, just didn’t feel the room felt as “spa-like” as the resort sounds. Not much to do around here.

The pools were the star for my grandkids. The evenings were cool but the outdoor pool was heated keeping kids happy. I wish I knew there was free coffee before the last day! It wasn’t verbally told to us at check-in. We also found out on the last night of available spaces for social gatherings playing games etc. There should be a written notice of amenities available. Other Hotels give you a list of WiFi passwords and other options available to the guests. We didn’t know what was available. Too bad as it was otherwise a great vacation but it put a damper on it.
