Bavarian Manor

  The inn is old but that's what give it its charm.  The staff is friendly and grounds are well kept.  There is a nice lake in the back.  The restaurant serves authentic German food, and most of the diners are of an older generation.  The air conditioners need updating in the rooms as they are too weak to cool the rooms on hot days.

  Our company has a warehouse quite nearby, so we decided to give the Bavarian Manor a try while in town on business.  We're so glad we did!  The owners are so nice and welcoming. The building is absolutely charming, with small but cosy rooms, homey accents and some with lake views. We stayed in the Turret Room, which is larger than most, and has a little table and chairs in the turret itself. So cool!  
  
  We loved looking at the historic photos around the place, as well as some framed correspondence from long ago from former guests. We also really liked the collection of devil's fiddles in the dining room.
  
  Breakfast was delicious, and prepared to order. We didn't have a chance to try dinner there, as the dining room wasn't open during the days we stayed there. This location in the Catskills is a great jumping-off point for some lovely hikes in the mountains and to the nearby waterfall. I would imagine there's some decent skiing around in winter.

  Incredible authentic German food. Prices are not very expensive and the atmosphere is very pleasing. I had a wonderful time at the manor. I feel like I have been missing out on this place, as I live only 2 miles from it! I tell everyone of my great experience!

  If you're in the Catskills, this Bed and Breakfast would definitely come recommended. I'm recommending it as such--a place to stay the night and grab breakfast.  A very large converted 19th century Victorian mansion with a lovely lake view, the rooms are small but very cozy, well furbished with a certain "homey" feel--lots of lace, pillows, cute blankets. Extremely clean. Clearly, this is a family establishment, with the owner very warmly welcoming you and making sure you are doing okay. Outside, relax in a number of rocking chairs, read, breathe in the clear air and pet their "house" kitten and dog. At nighttime, you can light the outdoor bonfire and toast marsh mellows. Oh, and you won't freeze at night because you control the heating in the room.
  The dining room is likewise beautifully decorated, with an old-timer serving as the waitress, you feel like extended family.
  The downsides: my room came with a coffee pot, but no electric outlet nearby. No garbage was in the room. 2. As a vegetarian, the menu is difficult to get by with, as it is a German establishment, everything is either sausage or flavored with bacon. The coffee is ghastly. 3. I think for what you get, it is overpriced. There is hardly anything "to do" around, so these were really more "resort" prices.

  A great old charming place with pretty good food.  My favorite is the weiner schnitzel. My father likes the saurbraten and usually gets that. Small bar area, large dining area, great hosts.
