Landoll's Mohican Castle

This was our first trip in a long time and we were really looking forward to it, but we left disappointed. Check-in was simple, the staff was friendly, and at first glance the grounds looked beautiful. But once we got to our room (the Hardesty Suite, right off the lobby), it was a letdown. The second we opened the door we were hit with an overwhelming damp, musty smell like mildew. We tried to brush it off since it’s an older building, but it definitely aggravated our allergies and made for a rough night. The room looked clean on the surface but felt tired and outdated. The end tables had heavy water damage, the furniture was worn, and overall it just didn’t feel like a “luxury” stay. The bed was fine and appeared clean, but when we went to shower that night we saw mold in the shower. That ended it for us, no relaxing shower after a long day of travel and walking the grounds. Even outside the room, upkeep was disappointing. Beer cans, water bottles, wedding brochures, and bubbles were scattered throughout the area where ceremonies take place. The wedding had occurred the day before according to the brochure we found on the ground. As a couple considering this as a venue to renew our vows, it was immediately off-putting and ruined the ambiance, the rash was still there the day we left, making it 3 days. Traffic cones blocked broken bricks, and the door to the observation tower remained locked our entire stay, so we couldn’t even enjoy that feature. The pool was okay but outdated. Inside the grotto a chunk of the wall was missing, and empty cups and trash were left behind that nobody bothered to check. For the price, this was nowhere near worth it. Between the smell, mold, outdated furnishings, locked amenities, and lack of upkeep, this was not the luxury getaway we hoped for. We won’t be back.

We had a wonderful stay for our 20th

Would recommend it to family and friends
