Eagles Mere Inn, Eagles Mere

We wanted to visit the falls at Ricketts Glen and found this inn about 20 miles away. Very nice and well maintained old building. The room had no phone or TV but that was a plus for me. The restaurant is top-notch dining with three entrees offered each evening. Great wine list and a pub in the basement. Nice breakfast options, too. The staff are all very friendly and helpful. The price seems a bit high until you remember that it includes dinner and breakfast at an in-house dining area. Wine with the meals is additional, however. There's a 15% service charge added on top of everything which brought our cost to a bit over $300 per day. We felt it was well worth the cost.

I am a local and 4th generation at Eagles Mere, I had my small family wedding at our house in the off season and wanted to have the dinner at the Inn. He asked that we come early because we had a large group. We scheduled for 5pm. We said we would be bringing wine and asked if he could have something on the menu that would accompany it such as lamb or a filet, he served venison and crab cakes....thanks Toby. We got our party to the hotel and a few people were lost so were 15 mins late, he said we were late and would have to eat fast. So we sat down in an empty dinning room and ate our meal. At 7pm with 2 other tables in the room we were told we would have to eat our wedding cake that they made in basement bar. So we moved out wedding party to the basement and finished out cake with the other locals at the bar standing up. At 8pm when we were finished we walked back upstairs past our empty table and the empty dinning room and went on our way. The owner was so rude and so full of himself it was unbelievable. My sister is getting married next year and we will not be returning
