Emerson Resort & Spa

The resort is very clean and quiet. The spa was small but very nice!

Our stay was perfect! The staff is friendly, the facilities are wonderful. The rooms are so spacious and clean, the mattresses are so comfortable and the linens are luxurious. We can’t wait to go back.

Great staff, friendly and accommodating. Spa has a great steam room, also enjoyed the outdoor co-ed hot tub overlooking the stream. King suite was spacious with a jetted tub.

We got a deep tissue couples massage and it did not disappoint. Previous spas we’ve been to offered a deep tissue but the pressure was not nearly deep enough. You can tell these therapists at Emerson were trained and knew what spots to hit in the body. We left feeling impressed and beyond relaxed!

Had a great time during our one night stay. Went for nature walk you are supposed to sign in for this event, but we walked into the lobby and asked to join and they added us without even saying anything.we enjoyed s’mores at the outdoor fireplace. Room was cleaned and well kept. Beds, pillows, linens comfortable. It was quite sterling it. Next morning snow had been cleaned all around even between cars. They give attention to details. Staff is friendly and helpful, even landscaping people were waiving hi. We had a short stay, would recommend it and I would stay again to take advantage of the spa and other amenities.

This is a beautiful spot for a weekend getaway. My fiance wanted somewhere with an outdoor hot tub, fire pit, bar, and nature. This place checked every box and all of the staff were super nice. I had a massage by Alex (amazing) and my fiancé had a deep tissue by Katie. He's 6'6" and muscular and Katie the masseuse was a tiny little thing but she did an AMAZING job with him. He sounded like he was fighting for his life (in a good way LOL). Seriously, I was impressed. The room we stayed in was absolutely gorgeous. The only downside was the jetted tub in our room only seemed to work when it wanted to. I would turn on the jets and the motor made the noise as if it was on, but the jets didn't turn on, even though i followed the directions. After about 30 minutes of soaking, some of them turned on for a little bit before turning off completely. The property itself was well-maintained. We enjoyed walking the grounds and breathing the clean mountain air. It was everything we wanted for our winter weekend away. I would love to come back and experience this place in the summer!

amazing resort

Great place , friendly and clean ,

Our 4th time staying at the Emerson -- and definitely not our last! My wife and I stayed here just over a decade ago and fell in love with the place -- and each other (we'd only been dating a month, and this was our first getaway together). We have always had a great experience not only in the spacious and well-appointed hotel (or lodge) room but also in the spa, where we've enjoyed many massages and hot tub soaks. The surrounding region is wonderful, too, and we were able to hike the new rail trail (walkway) not too far from the Emerson. We also love visiting Phoenicia, including the fantastic Phoenicia Diner, and we spent a day in Woodstock, too. We also spent many meals at the Catamount, the Emerson's restaurant, and it was especially fun seeing all of the staff in the Christmas jammies and ugly sweaters. Everyone bent over backward to ensure that our stay was as magical as ever.

Great service and location
