My wife and I randomly picked The Alander because we needed a last minute escape after sadly losing our 16 year old dog. I cannot say enough about not just the courtesy, kindness, and efficiency of literally all staff we interacted with, but also how terrifically designed and clean the facilities are. The restaurant and bar attached are top notch as well, and hav eclearly become a destination spot for the local area. Reid, one of the owners, is a great conversationalist, and incredibly attentive to guest's needs. We encountered numerous guests who were also thoroughly impressed with the grounds and facilities and restaurant/bar. We will absolutely be returning. 5 stars.

One bed had previous guest’s makeup on the bed sheets. Bathroom door was very hard to open and close. Black paint scraping off in the bathroom. Mattress wasn’t comfortable, was sinking. Overall, a decent stay with a lot of potential! The restaurant was the highlight. Very delicious food for both dinner and brunch.

We found the Alander to be way more than we expected. The room was clean and comfortable. Staff was incredible. The restaurant on the premises was amazing. We had a great meal and the service was both friendly and efficient. We will probably be back when we are in the area. We highly recommend this property!

A find on NY-22 in Copake

We very much enjoyed our stay! The North Star restaurant is truly a STAR. There is not a thing on the menu we would not order! Service perfect. Our only complaint is the mattress was much too soft. We would certainly return though if only for the North Star. Met one of the owners who was delightful! Hats off for the renovation that has been undertaken.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The room had cob webs with bugs and spiders in it. There other things that were a nice touch like the complimentary yogurt and homemade granola. The bathroom fixtures were worn and chipping. I would not categorize it as a boutique lodge. It’s more of a refurbished motel.

This place was quaint and cozy. We enjoyed using the fire pit while we sipped on wine purchased from a nearby winery that day. The restaurant was amazing- great HH pricing on apps. Delicious gourmet dinner!! Great staff. Don’t miss the experience!

I was in the area for a wedding so only stayed for a brief overnight. Great communication by the owners. Room was large, charming, and clean. I would definitely stay here again if I was in the area. One thing is to download directions to the hotel and how to get into your room prior to your arrival as cell service in the area is spotty. Once there, it is not a problem as they have excellent WiFi
