Deer Mountain Inn

We were here for the first time this week, to celebrate our 15th anniversary. We came for dinner, although after being here will try to make it back to stay ASAP. Every person we interacted with was professional, friendly, and went above & beyond to make our anniversary special. Our server (who I'm so sorry, I wish I remembered who it was because they were so wonderful) made several menu recommendations, all of which were very good. In fact, everything was very good, and we agreed that while we've eaten at some special places before, this is now at the top of our list. They were very helpful in making suggestions and substitutions as I am gluten free, and neither of us could believe the bread was gluten free, it was that good. There was a couple planning their wedding a few tables over from us, having the best time, and I can see why - this would be a fantastic place to have your wedding. The atmosphere is so charming, the food is delicious, everyone who works here seems to be dedicated to providing a great experience, and honestly no detail seems to be not thought of. 10/10, will definitely be back. Thank you!!

My wife and I visited for our third time recently. DMI is exceptional; staff members are detail-oriented, highly-trained and focused professionals who have all parts of your stay figured out before you arrive. Kaitlyn handled all ins and outs of managing the entire campus, it seemed, with total professionalism. Rebecca and Bart were Manhattan or Nantucket-level servers who did not miss a beat; Bokeen and Miranda provided drinks and hot fires without breaking a sweat. All of them are kind, caring people who want you to relax and unwind. This place is a gem; you can hike, shop for antiques or watch a football game and relax all within a five-minute drive (yes, a literal five-minute drive). The food is outrageously good, so much so that I booked our fourth stay between our plates being cleared and the dessert coming out. They have an unrivaled eye for seemingly everything big and small; the decor is exactly how you see it in magazines and the feel matches that of a cozy, private cabin. They’re also adding additional, separate cabins that are sure to define luxury. Keep an eye on DMI, as it rightfully books up quickly.

Deer Mountain Inn is a beautiful place, one that feels luxurious and low-key at the same time. The staff are attentive and helpful. The rooms are beautiful. The restaurant is excellent. And the location is nice, with lots of nearby hikes, an arboretum, and nice towns to visit. I'm so glad we came here and I can't wait to return.
