    Old Fashioned Hospitality

    November 15, 2012

    While the Garrison House may not be five-star quality, the owner and the welcoming feel of the place is wonderful. Compared to many other inns in the area (especially at peak season) the value was well worth it. I have to say, one of the most pleasant points about our stay at Garrison House was the cordial and friendly manner of the staff. The Gift Shoppe is really charming and the food served in the little diner on the property was really lovely ... the highlight of our visit was listening to the beautiful singing and guitar playing of a young woman in this cozy diner while we ate our lunch. It was truly a lovely stay. Thank you!

    Ring Weekend

    August 29, 2012

    We stayed for Ring Weekend and found it very accommodating. The continental breakfast was perfect, the location and convenience to West Point was perfect and the rooms were comfortable. Also a very reasonable rate! If I could get the Garrison House for graduation I most certainly would!!!

    A-day weekend

    August 22, 2012

    Location to West Point is great and the owners are very conscientious. House is pretty good shape considering it is over 200+ yrs old. Could not hang out with Cadet in small bed room but had plenty of places in common areas outside and inside.

    What a wedding

    March 22, 2012

    Recently attended a wedding at this place. It was beautiful, the weather was perfect, the staff was so nice. We had SUCH a good time. The food was excellent and there was so much of it! Wish I had thought of this for my wedding! It is my understanding that the price was really reasonable for the reception and we were given a 10% discount on the rooms for the weekend as wedding guests. Definitely worth a call.

    Relaxing

    March 22, 2012

    What a relaxing stay. House was charming and the history of it was amazing. Staff was exceptional, they went out of their way to help. Would have liked a full length mirror in our room, but otherwise had a wonderful time.

    Nice

    March 22, 2012

    Nice B&B conveniently located near West Point. Value was exceptional as their pricing is half of what the other hotels are charging for West Point functions. Staff was wonderful and very helpful and accommodating. Would stay again.

    Really enjoyed it

    February 20, 2012

    My wife and I stayed at Garrison House this past weekend during a weekend getaway, and we both loved it. The owner and the manager were both very friendly and even offered to go out of their way for us. The house itself was beautiful, our room was nice and the bed was very comfy. We ordered the Valentines Sweetheart Package, and the value was tremendous! Definitely a great place to stay when you want to get away from the world for a few days.

    Beware!!

    December 16, 2011

    My wife and I were in town for a West Point reunion in October 2011. We have stayed in several B&Bs in the area and really enjoyed them in the past. The website describes a nice typical B&B. Beware...the Garrison House is just horrible. Upon arrival they had no record of our reservation. The heat was not on, several electrical circuits did not work, the bathroom was filthy, the plaster ceiling in the kitchen has fallen in from prior storms, the bedroom smelled strongly of mold and the final straw for us was...no hot water in the bathroom. The Innkeeper was not home and the two managers would not answer their cell phones.

    Innkeeper Response
    This review is completely inaccurate. They did not arrive until 8:30pm when check-in is 3-6pm, with no phone call or any notice whether or not they would indeed be arriving. There was hot water in the bathroom and I showed them that the spigots were reversed, hot on right instead of left and vice versa as it is an old house with plumbing installed in the 20's. When they did not arrive by 6pm, I turned the heat down in their room thinking they would not be coming. Two and a half hours later, when they arrived, I turned up the heat and turned on the electric fireplace insert to add more warmth. They said they were going to eat and left, never complained about anything else. The next morning I put out breakfast and did not see them, assuming they slept in. Later in the day they said that they did not sleep there, but went to the Holiday Inn and wanted their money back because there was no hot water. I again took them upstairs and showed them how the spigots worked and there was indeed hot water. I explained that when reservations are made for peak times they are non-refundable.However we would be willing to offer them a gift certificate for a free stay for another time. They stated that they had paid twice what we charged for their room at the Holiday Inn and that they wanted a refund and if we did not comply they would "write bad reviews" about us "all over the web". They were given a refund in full despite our policy to the contrary. Despite this, they have posted inaccurate reviews on at least three web sites months later. As for their statement about the Innkeeper not being home, this is not a private home and there is no Innkeeper on the premises. They spoke with the Innkeeper by phone that evening. There are not two managers on site either, but an on premise caretaker who lives there. This is not a 24 hour hotel with a front desk staff.
