There's something cozy about a big new lodge in the middle of ski country. Greek Peak's new 'Hope Lake Lodge' just opened their doors and this new accommodation is getting great reviews.

Part of the fun is the indoor water park, exclusive to lodge guests and a first in the Finger Lakes!

106 Northwoods Stye guest rooms are actually called condominiums because of the 9 different room designs all with kitchens and gas fireplaces. The loft rooms have bunk beds making this getaway great for families. The furnishings are locally crafted and Adirondack style adding to the rustic charm of the new lodge.

Hope Lake Lodge also boasts the new Waterfalls Spa. 5,500 square feet of full-service luxury and pampering. The spa is open to the public as well as lodge guests.

Add a restaurant, cafe', lounge and fitness center, and this new find in Cortland, New York takes the away the winter doldrums.
