Another great stay at the Sherwood! We’ve done a few winter overnights at the Sherwood and it never disappoints. Everyone is friendly and professional from check-in to check-out. We always enjoy the atmosphere in the tavern before having dinner. We order from the Sherwood Classics and they’re always fantastic. We were well taken care of by Teresa who was helpful and friendly. Don’t pass up the croissants at breakfast!||We stayed in room 37 which was very nice and walking up the stairs to the 3rd floor is part of the charm.

As event and wedding planners, we can’t say enough great things about hosting at the Sherwood Inn. Melissa and her team are a dream to work with - attentive, flexible, and incredibly knowledgeable, making the planning process feel smooth and stress-free. The food is outstanding, the service is thoughtful, and the space itself is both beautiful and welcoming, with cozy, inviting rooms for guests to enjoy. The Sherwood Inn offers a wonderful blend of hospitality, charm, and professionalism - we highly recommend it for weddings and special events!

The restaurant is a perfect winter tradition, with cozy woods burning fireside tables, classic comfort foods (pot roast was incredible) and a unique ambiance that feels like you're stepping back in time. We come every year, and each time they do a great job. The service is always great, we had Sarah as our server this time, and the food is equally as good. We even met the owner this time. You can certainly tell why this establishment runs so well by having a conversation with him. Can't wait to go back!

Tavern menu to highest quality fare. We had our wedding rehearsal dinner at this landmark in 1976 and it remains a wonderful place for events, great meals and happy memories. Located in the heart of Skaneateles. Easy to walk the village and parking out back.

★★★★★ 5.0 Shaun Cunningham · Nov 2025

This was our culminating stop for a family dinner after a tour of the local vineyards along the lake. The raw bar was delicious and everyone enjoyed their American fine dining food and drink. Good service and a place my family has visited many times for a great meal. Definitely worth the stop!
