Romance Blooms in the Spring at Our Luxury Resort in Upstate NY
As winter thaws and the first blooms of spring begin to unfurl across the Hudson Valley, there’s an undeniable shift in the air; a sense of renewal, promise, and romance that only this season can bring. At Mohonk Mountain House, our historic castle resort nestled amidst 40,000 acres of protected forest, spring isn’t just a season; it’s an invitation to reconnect with the one you love in a setting that feels timeless and tender.
Mohonk offers an escape from the ordinary and a return to intimacy, tranquility, and adventure. From scenic walks amid budding blossoms to candlelit dinners and curated activities leading up to Valentine’s Day, our romantic resort in the Catskills comes alive with opportunities to make springtime memories that linger long after the snow has melted.
A Season Set for Togetherness
Spring at Mohonk Mountain House begins with the gentle awakening of nature. Trails once quiet under winter’s hush become pathways to discovery as wildflowers bloom and birds return with cheerful song. There is no better backdrop for romance than a trail walk at sunrise, hand in hand with your partner, breathing in the fresh mountain air and watching sunlight shimmer across Lake Mohonk.
While winter lingers in spirit, the calendar begins to shift toward warmer weather and open possibilities. By the time February’s Valentine’s Week arrives, our Upstate New York resort invites couples to celebrate love with events designed for connection, delight, and shared experience.
Heartfelt Events & Activities in February
As the season of love approaches, Mohonk’s signature programming sets the stage for romance. Join us for Couples’ Romantic Getaway weekend and Romance Week, which feature:
- Valentine’s Week Celebrations — A series of curated experiences crafted for couples. From romantic gatherings to themed activities, every moment is orchestrated with love in mind.
- Couples’ Activities — Including couples’ yoga, wine tastings, and artful workshops such as floral arranging and cocktail crafting, these experiences are perfect for shared discovery.
- Candlelit Dinners — In our elegant dining rooms, seasonal menus paired with fine wines become more than meals — they become moments. Chef-inspired courses highlight local, fresh ingredients that celebrate both the region and the season.
- Afternoon Tea & Fireside Talks — Slow, intimate moments in cozy lounges or on breezy verandas offer time to talk, laugh, or simply bask in each other’s company.
Every year, couples rediscover the joy of being present together through shared experiences that feel both indulgent and deeply personal.
The Mohonk Tulip Festival: Where Love Truly Blooms
Romance shouldn’t be confined to one week! Just a few weeks later, from late April through mid-May, our annual Tulip Festival unfurls in vibrant color. Tens of thousands of tulips are in bloom, painting our mountain resort’s landscape in reds, pinks, purples, and creams. There’s something uniquely poetic about walking hand-in-hand through sea-colored blossoms, the sun warming your face, and the mountain backdrop rising beyond the garden.
For couples who celebrate love not just as a moment but as a season, this festival becomes a must-see spectacle. Whether you’re planning to extend your stay into spring or simply dreaming of future seasons together, the Mohonk Tulip Festival offers another chapter in your love story, one written in blooms and sunshine, laughter and lingering views.
Thoughtful Touches That Turn a Stay Into a Love Story
While Mohonk’s mountain views and historic charm set the scene, it’s often the quiet, thoughtful details that make a romantic getaway truly unforgettable. Guests planning a spring escape or Valentine’s retreat can enhance their stay with in-room offerings designed to surprise, delight, and slow time just a little more.
Imagine arriving to a room already glowing with romance, with champagne, wine, or Victorian tea service waiting to be poured as the sun sets over the mountains, and caviar, a charcuterie board, or handcrafted chocolates awaiting a sweet moment together. Floral arrangements add an extra layer of beauty, filling the room with fragrance and making the space feel intentionally yours. These enhancements transform a beautiful room into a private sanctuary, perfect for celebrating love, anniversaries, or simply the joy of being together.
These romantic touches are often overlooked during booking, but they’re what turn a getaway into a memory you’ll revisit long after the season has changed. At Mohonk Mountain House, love isn’t just felt in the grand moments; it lives in the details.
Create Your Springtime Love Story
Spring isn’t just a season at Mohonk, it’s an experience to be shared. For couples who seek more than a fleeting getaway, who wish to reignite conversation, laughter, and closeness, this is the season when romance blooms most fully. From the heart of winter’s quiet retreat to the warmth of spring’s first blossoms, Mohonk Mountain House remains a place where love feels effortless, joyful, and beautifully alive.
