A Cozy Christmas

The Lodge at Glendorn sits on 1,500 acres just along the Allegheny National Forest. You’ll find history, culture, and a luxury nature resort with 16 distinct accommodations that include family-friendly activities, outdoor fire pits, monogramed towels, and, basically, your own personal chef.

If you’re staying during Christmas, consider yourself set to totally refuel. Executive Chef David Haick is preparing a spread fit for couples and families alike who appreciate every delicious detail when it comes to luxe mountain dining. You can expect Chef’s version of steak and eggs, signature Glendorn poached eggs with smoked trout and “all-in-one” hollandaise, pumpkin pancakes, as well as a breakfast flatbread to start.

Your Christmas morning continues with Glendorn Drop Biscuits, homemade granola, and sweet potato and pork belly hash – all while watching the snow fall through the towering trees from your enchanting view. Your long holiday will truly be a treat, from food to low-key fun at Bondu Lake, to twice-daily housekeeping with turndown service and freshly baked chocolate chip cookies, so much so you’ll find yourself extending your stay through the New Year.

If your visit to Glendorn needs to wait until the New Year, Chef Haick shares some of The Lodge’s signature holiday recipes for you to try at home.
