Beautiful property overseen by a lovely person, Wendy was hospitable in every sense of the word; would absolutely love to come back to this amazing retreat in the woods. Also worth mentioning is the amazing waterfall within walking distance of the property.

The property was charming but the rooms could use some work. TV was very fuzzy, shower head shot water everywhere,and the tub in the shower was very slow to drain. The breakfast which was included was cooked to order and very nice.

Great place to stay for a nice relaxing weekend in the mountains. Short distance from many attractions. Mountain Brauhaus right down the road for German food, drinks and live entertainment. Friendly staff that make you feel like you’re at home. Fun filled weekend.

Everything was spectacular. Breakfast was delicious in the beautifully decorated dining room. Wonderful, warm home feeling in the resort. Wendy and her husband Eddie were extremely welcoming and friendly. Meals at the Moutain Brau House were fabulous… authentic German food. Staff were friendly and extremely accommodating there too. Such a wonderful weekend there.

Room was a bit dated but clean and comfortable. Would have been nicer if there was a microwave and a fridge. Included sit-down breakfast was awesome! Dinner at Brauhaus was good too! Wendy (proprietor) was very nice and accommodating. We definitely enjoyed our stay there.

Wonderful Stay

We spent a long weekend, looking at the leaves in the Catskills. Our stay at the Crystal Brook Resort & Mountain Brauhaus was wonderful. While the accomodations were retro, it was a clean and comfortable room. The staff, family actually, were amazing, friendly and cheerful. The meals, breakfasts and dinner were hardy, and delicious. (The leaves were also right at peak, so that is a plus.)

A little taste of Germany!

This was a very beautiful property with a waterfall on the property and more waterfalls nearby. The room was really clean, with new carpet and wallpaper. Has a German theme, which is kind of cool. The German food at the Brauhaus Was good. The entertainment was fun and the owner Wendy was very hospitable. We are definitely going back next year to see the colorful leaves again. My wife loved it!

Fantastic staff, we loved it all except the size of the bathroom and the internet service. The bathroom had barely room for your knees and the shower barely fit my husband who is 230 lbs. Seriously, there was hardly room to turn around in it. And, then there is T-mobile which didn’t help trying when the wifi was useless. When we left we heard someone else telling the manager about the internet. I could hear the manager say that she took it seriously. It may have been that a router needed to be reset. The Brauhaus was hopping on Saturday night and we returned on Sunday night for dinner as well. We had a fun time!

Wendy and Ed were professional, sweet and accommodating. My family and I felt transported to a time before the internet, social media and other modern technology interrupted family gatherings. The trees and the wildflowers on/surrounding the property were the perfect antidote to the overdeveloped, congested Northern New Jersey town we live in. Ed's coffee cake and breakfasts were delicious. I can only dream of making the paper thin pastry dough in his coffee cake.

Family owned and operated for decades. Family friendly. A quaint resort. Pool was a good size. Small playground for kids, basketball and tennis court, horse shoe, volley ball net, hot tub. Plenty of tables and chairs, bench swings, “bar” area has puzzles and board games. Breakfast was delicious. Separate restaurant on site with reasonable prices and fantastic food. The room was clean and comfortable. There are 2 waterfalls that you can walk to, one on the property and another down the street. Highly recommend calling the hotel directly before booking especially if you need a ground floor room, no elevators available. Will stay again!!
