Breathtaking - Mohonk Mountain House Breathtaking is this resort set in wilderness, Resplendent in the hills of the Shawangunk Ridge, Established long ago in eighteen sixty-nine, And visited by people from around the world. This castle, Mohonk Mountain House, magnificent Hotel with gardens and blue crystal lake ringed by Tall cliffs of rock with their reflective mirror views, And winding trails that lead to scenic mountain top. Kindling with love of outdoor beauty is the glow Indoors...warm aura of Victorian motif No other place more beautiful exists than this Grand National Historic Landmark in New York.
