The Manor House was just beautiful and so cozy and welcoming, everywhere from the lobby, dining area, and pub to our charming room. Incredible delicious dinner and breakfast with great service. The people working in the office where you check in and out were so pleasant and helpful with everything, and the adjacent gift shop is delightful! Every detail and need we might have as guests had been anticipated...See More

This was our first stay at Glen Laurel and we will definitely be back. The Muir was a perfectly cozy cottage and the food was absolutely top notch. Thank you for a fantastic stay. As this was our first time I sent a plethora of emails to the staff prior to our arrival, their response was always prompt, helpful and very polite. Kudos to Brenna and Amanda!

- Tyler Gillioun

A beautiful place for a lovely getaway. We enjoyed the hiking trails and sitting by the fire pit to watch the sunset. Our room was very nice with our own private balcony. The 6 course dinner was amazing, with soft music playing in the background. The chef came out to chat with us at the end of our meal. She was interested in how we liked the food and...See More

Hidden gem!!! My husband and I have visited Glen Laurel for many years, but since recently moving out-of-state, haven’t been back since 2018. We really enjoyed our latest trip along with the new updates. The MacLeod Cottage is set along the Highland Scott walking trail and private gorge on the estate. It’s one of our favorites. Nestled among the Hemlock’s you can enjoy an evening in the jacuzzi while...See More

UPDATE: The owner immediately reached out upon reading that there was a pricing discrepancy and fixed everything. We stayed at the charming MacKay cottage. You walk in to Celtic music playing and themed surroundings. It was so relaxing to sit by the fire and watch the snow fall. The hot tub was also divine. They check it daily, which made me feel more comfortable about using it. It has...See More
