We had two rooms and a cottage for a quick family vacation. The location and facilities are great. We had a terrific stay and wish we had time to stay longer. The only complaint is that the vent on top of the air conditioner in room M10 had mold on it. It seems that the rooms are aging and need an update soon. The only suggestion is to open the coffee shop earlier or have two people working. There was a long line each day and with one person, service was slow.

Pickleball courts were not finished but in operation. Walls around courts were under construction and could easily cause an accident on court or trying to access courts. Pool area needs maintenance and attention. Saw two accidents while at pool. Lake was unusable due to water bacteria. Very disappointing for our grandkids. Grounds were beautiful staff helpful and our meals and room were fine

We went for a rendezvous with friends and family and this was where we met in the middle. I've been to Skytop before, but it was ages ago and in the winter so it looked completely different. Everything was top notch with the minor exception that I had requested connecting rooms and upon check-in was told that we had rooms next to each other in a cottage. The cottage has four rooms, and fortunately no one occupied the other two while we were there so we had the place to ourselves, but the rooms in the front of the cottage do connect to the rooms in the back. The rooms in the front are double queens and in the back are kings. We would have preferred that combination but didn't see it when booking and were never asked or informed even though I called the hotel a couple of times ahead of our stay. The website is a bit difficult to understand when booking and the front desk isn't especially helpful. Other than that, the service was wonderful and our stay was glorious.

This was a wonderful babymoon for us! Great staff. Nice amenities. Beautiful grounds. I can't wait to come back when I'm not 9 months pregnant so I can take advantage of more of the activities.

This is an amazing place for the beginner skier or family who wants to participate in winter fun! Tubing, ice skating and skiing lessons as well as their own ski hill! Only downside is the lift on the hill is old and was broken day of arrival (Friday) and then again on Sunday.

This was a beautiful place to be away from the hustle and bustle of daily life. The hotel and the staff were amazing & the facility had things to do every hour of the day. I recommend Skytop to any family looking for a relaxing fun vacation.

Every thing lived up to our expectations, except for the food. The presentation of the food was first class, but the preparation of the food below what we expected. For younger people than we are, there was every game and activity that can be imagined. It certainly is a great place for a family retreat. The staff could not be friendlier or more helpful. Over all, we had a wonderful stay, and look forward to a repeat.
