Country Campsites — Hotel in Town of Durham

We simply wanted a room to stay in overnight for Mtn Jam. The place looks abandoned from the road; tall weeds, lots of old mowers and lawn clutter. Upon arrival, the host sensed that we would not like the room before we even saw it. As stated elsewhere, rotted, sagging, sloped floor, mildew odor, very old, unplugged appliances, unusable deck. Host gave us the same excuses that she gave to the unfortunate guest in 2014, "This is the Catskills" SO? The host then offered their new cabin at the same rate. Perfect! We saw it, paid for it, signed the papers in their equally disorganized office, and left with the key. About an hour later we get a text. "Sorry we are cancelling your reservation..." WHAT???? Isn't that an agreement? We give you money and sign the paperwork and you give us the key. We're staying here! Not an agreement to them. Luckily we found a room at a better hotel even closer to our destination. So, the hotel is simply horrible and the Host is far from professional. Got a good laugh from her website stating that "people will recommend this place to their friends". The key is on my wall as a reminder to read reviews before booking hotels. FYI: We reserved through airbnb. Fortunately, airbnb was professional and followed up after this disaster. Looks like they are trying airbnb to rent this place as no reputable hotel site will...

Just returned home from a lovely weekend at Michael Dee's Country Campground. It's my third visit to this gem in the Catskills! Very peaceful setting! Sites were spacious and well maintained. The farm animals were a treat! Always bring apples to feed the miniature horse! Beautiful weather to sit and enjoy the crystal clear pool!!! Large field for games and sports. The owners, Michelle and Bob go out of their way to make your stay pleasant. || Music and Lights under the big tent was enjoyable. Met a lot of new people. Discussed some of the negative reviews I read about. Everyone I talked to were repeat guests and say they will continue to return ! I personally inspected 2 rooms. Both were clean, tidy and smelled fine! These rooms weren't polished marble and mirrors as in a towering hotel building but they are quite acceptable !||Personally, I've returned home feeling refreshed and very happy with the service...
