The Minnewaska Lodge is a relatively new lodge just outisde of New Paltz New York and near the Mohonk Preserve and the Minnewaska Park.
This place is a little overpriced - maybe even more than a little overpriced.
But it is a nice place - the rooms are clean, the food is good and it's right near some great hiking trails (and if you're into rock climbing, this is the right place for you).
There is also a small hiking trail on the grounds of the lodge.
