Some parents have asked me for a list of hotels in the area of Forestburgh.  The list I have is about 6 years old.  I cannot vouch for any of the hotels, nor do I know if they are still in business. If interested, please contact them directly.  If anyone DOES contact any of the following, please let me know if they are still open for business as I will update the list.
