Best Things About the Resort:
The best things about this resort are its tranquility at the foot of the Catskill Mountains and its amenities. We enjoyed the large indoor heated swimming pool, the biggest hot tub I've ever seen, sauna, steam room, spa and salon, fitness room, game room, store, restaurant, and bar.

The timeshare units (Village) are in separate two-story buildings from the main resort and require a vehicle to go back and forth. It was too cold to walk that distance in March. The units were older but very roomy and clean. There is broadband wireless access in each unit. Each of the two bedrooms in the unit had two queens, in addition to the foldout couch, so you can sleep a total of 10 people.
At the main resort, we never saw any other occupants. We took advantage of the pool (no one else around), sauna, spa, and restaurant (no one else around). We ordered a bottle of wine in the restaurant and they let us take it and the ice bucket back to our room, which was nice.
The resort is just 10 miles away from ski areas in the Catskills and Hunter Mountain, which we did not use because there was no snow there in early March.
