Copake Lake

I stayed in a townhouse, an upgrade from the room I booked. It was quiet and private, which I enjoyed, and more room than I needed. If my family's schedule had been different, I could have invited them over for a cookout (they live nearby). The townhouse was rather dated and I am afraid a bit dreary, with a lot of browns and beiges. But well-outfitted and convenient.

Easy check in, but a bit different since there is no staff to help check in. Had to find things on your own, but that was not difficult. Outside furniture could use and upgrade as our friends almost fell through the chair. But is was wonderful being able to sit outside, have appetizers, and play a game or just relax. All other guests we ran into were nice. I would return.

Beautiful property. Was a little surprised to arrive at 5pm and my room wasn't ready. Expedia "extras" (a bottle of wine) didn't happen. A very clumsy billing error at the bar with no apology. Would have expected better service given how lovely the property was and how well rated it was.
