If this place got upgraded and modernized and cleaned, it would garner more stars but for now, it's def outdated. It's too bad cause the location is amazing. Right on Lake Morey, the scenery is stunning and they have a huge well kept golf course. The place is in a great setting with the hills and mountains surrounding the resort. They have kayak rentals and a deck with a great view. The resort itself is a bit dirty and outdated. The price would be perfect if the place was updated but it def needs some work, mostly on the inside. The staff was helpful and cheery. The food was good and the amenities

Stunning location and lots to do. Lake Morey is a treasure where you can kayak, SUP or canoe, there are tennis courts and a golf course at extra cost. Staff is friendly and nearby Fairlee has great dining options. WiFi is good throughout to resort.
The resort can easily achieve 5 star level if rooms were less dated, and bathrooms were more resort-grade and less a dark one-piece plastic affair. Resort restaurants could also do better. Make sure to verify your room has a fridge; that is critical in the summer heat.
Still a fantastic choice for a vacation getaway. We will return.

Scenic views from patio to view lake. Kayaks and canoes to borrow. Rooms were clean. No maid service due to covid. Food in dining room average to a bit below for dinner. Buffet breakfast was typical with instant scrambled eggs, bacon, pancakes, cereal, fruit, yogart and juice. Wait staff was pleasant. Front desk was personable.

Lovely lake with a family of loons, very relaxing atmosphere, beautiful lakeside room with great view. Very family friendly, with a theater downstairs, a ping pong table, a pool, games etc. And, as guests travelling without kids, we have not been disturbed by noise or rowdy kids at all. The resort is well designed. It is an old fashion family resort, fun for all. Loved the concert series. Lots of fun. A comfortable place to be with amenities. Pleasantly VT. Food at the resort is a little marked up in price. Rice bowl with tofu $20. Add shrimp + $10, but the convenience is worth it and it is a resort

We stayed for five days for Memorial Day week! It was the most perfect summer trip. We had the place to ourselves I think there may have been 1-2 other cars! Everyone in the front was amazing, Heather, the younger lady who helped put a movie in for my little kids, and there may have been another person who worked evenings.
We had a lake terrace room (601) with a view! It was such a great deal and the room was so spacious, incredible. Perfectly located next to our car and just steps away from the lake.
The pool and gym were very clean and access wasn't an issue. No masks were required for

Nice resort with friendly staff! Rooms are nice and spacious with great views. The Avery Suite is simply AMAZING!! Great menu and food for both lunch and dinners. Love the fact that it's mostly local food. The 4 mile skate trail in the winter is the best and by far my favorite place to skate. Always a great time at Lake Morey

My bf, mom, and I stayed here for five nights since due to covid we didn't want to leave the state. The hotel is very quirky and beautiful...the decor is very similar to the hotel from the movie The Shining. A lot of the hall ways have dips and turns which I didn't mind it definitely gave it character. The rooms weren't too bad either definitely on the smaller side but not terrible. I would have liked there to have been a fan in the bathroom but nothing too bad. We did have some issues with the ac in our room. My bf and I like to sleep with it on but we had troubles getting it to

Spent two days at the resort. The location is beautiful. Really quiet area, the lake is so clear, and the sounds of Loons is amazing. The staff could not have been nicer. Comfortable beds, nice rooms, and excellent water pressure in our shower. I really enjoyed the food, and they have a good beer selection.

My boyfriend and I stayed at lake Morey resort this past weekend which happened to be indigenous peoples day weekend. Prices were a little high but that is to be expected as it is a long weekend as well as prime leaf peeping season. Overall our room was clean however my boyfriend had noticed a couple of dead spiders on the ceiling. This wasn't a dealbreaker for me because we were in the woods... the sheets were clean the bathroom was clean and over all it was a clean room but the building itself is outdated. I had called and asked about a mini fridge and a microwave ahead of time. The front

I would have given 5 stars if I were only rating the outside/grounds and staff. Staff so nice, accommodating and quick. The outside grounds was beyond beautiful.
Menu was very limited. Pub good but dining room beyond my wallet.
Crazy carpet designs, VERY uneven floors, flickering and humming lights and smells of mold and sometime bathroom smell. Shower was roomy and warm water. Beds were comfy.
Went to movies in-house theatre- was nice and a cool addition
Exercise room very outdated and not kept clean. Nothing in area to wipe machines off after individuals use.
Pool warm and hot tub warm. Hot

Hello spent 3 day weekend with 45 members of my family
The staff was awesome the food was fantastic the staff lake side
Attended to all the kids needs made sure all had life jackets
And made sure the lakes conditions were safe for all that ventured out
With complementary water craft . The golf course was in pretty good condition considering how much rain fell in the previous weeks .
The course runs kinda slow in the morning due to the older players
Go out after noon and never a wait to tee off .All in all nice quiet place with rather large rooms and very clean will be back this summer Thank

If you want a cheap weekend golf excursion for the guys, not a bad place. Food was average, staff not overly friendly and place very dated. Golf course seemed like they shoved 18 holes in a 9 hole spot. Advice, while golf is part of the package, $38 per day to rent a cart!
Best part about the place is the memories you make. I would recommend you pay a little more and go to a true resort. Just my opinion.

I've been going to Lake Morey Resort for golf excursions yearly for the past 15 years. It's not fancy or exclusive but is homey and about the friendliest place you can go. From the check-in staff to the wait staff to the pro shop staff, all are professional, courteous and Vermont friendly. The course was in great shape (they just hosted the VT Open) and challenging but mixed with some easy holes. Once you park your car there's no reason to get back in it until you are ready to go home. Already booked for 2019!

I stayed here about a week ago for a friend's wedding. I have to say that the scenery was unbelievably beautiful. The resort it's self was charming, and the staff was very friendly. Our room had an amazing view, and the beds were comfortable.
However the decor was extremely dated. The hotel from the Shinning was more contemporary. My boyfriend is 6'4", and his head grazed our ceiling. The hallways were very uneven, making it very difficult to walk in heels, and difficult to navigate at times. One of our friends room was supposed to be a gazebo view, but really it was a view

I got married here last year, and now I am finally getting around to writing a review. I wanted to share how the resort helped make our special day wonderful and magical. My husband and I live on the west coast, but are originally from New England. We decided to have our wedding back east so most of our family could attend. So, from planning my wedding from a distance communication was very important to us. The sales manager, Erin, and the wedding coordinator, Melissa, and the bartender were all prompt, clear, professional, patient, and positive in their communication. With the time difference

Avoid this golf course. Took five fours to play. If there is a ranger, he/she is missing in action. Tee boxes uneven and in bad shape. Greens in good shape, but slow. Cut to satisfy the resort guests. Staff very friendly. No one walks; saw just one other walker through 18 holes. All very disappointing.

Nice place to relax and forget about outside world. Very clean and comfortable, not modern but with its own charm. People are amazing lot, friendly, helpful and very easy to talk to...
Our room is very comfy and clean - (newly renovated) but I would change the mattress to somethings more comfy and modern...
*Please don't forget to tip the cleaning services - they are doing an amazing job...
Beauty around the resort is breathtaking - please walk around the lake ( 5.3 miles )or take a boat tour on the lake
Try the spa experience - massages are a plus ...
Make sure to eat outside of the resort

I can only give you the perspective of a Dartmouth student who comes here for formals. Lake Morey is a pretty popular place for Greek houses to have their spring formals at since the lake itself is really just so, so beautiful and great for photos. In general, food at the event has been on the meh side--I've had the chicken and the steak both of which were pretty mediocre but the chicken is the lesser of the two evils. They've got ample space for a respectably sized dance floor. It's a lovely place to hold an event at.
Honestly, the star rating here is really just for how beautiful

I hesitate to write this review, because I don't want everyone to flock to Lake Morey Resort and crowd my favorite spot! We have been to Lake Morey Resort every Jan/Feb for the past few years for the ice skating on lake, cross country skiing, snow shoeing, good eats, indoor pool/hot tub that overlooks the lake, activities, and hot coco. The skates, skis, and snowshoe rental is included if you are staying at the resort, so it really is quite an amazing deal.
As a gluten free diner, I love how attentive the staff is and accommodating of my dietary restrictions. On request, they brought out

Attended my best friend's wedding here. It had everything you'd expect from Vermont country charm :) The town is teeny, I couldn't even tell you how far away the grocery store is (it's far!). The wedding was awesome, and they did a great job on the food!
They have the lake right there for water sports, a big golf course, and tennis courts... and I'm sure there is more!
It was a perfect little quaint vacation :)

I really like this place. It's got a proprietary feel to it - you know, like you're at an inn, and you can talk to the proprietor.
Distractions abound. You're surrounded by verdant green and lakes. Kayaks are free and so are bicycles. The breakfast is standard continental.
I didn't have dinner here but was told you can't wear jeans in the dining room.
On Friday nights the bar - a kind of extension of the lobby - gets all cruise-shippy and a bunch of people get out in small-town livery to dance to ABBA and the Spice Girls. It's not so terrible if you confine your
