Has anyone ever been to the pesach program by FFH events at Villa Roma Resort and Spa in Callihoon, NY?

Can you tell me what you’ve heard about the people that attend ? We are modern orthodox. Will we fit in ?

It's a largely chabad crowd, with others mixed in, including MO. Ppl that go on the program from what I've heard are nice and friendly, and everyone fits in. I know a rwmo family that went last year and loved the program. We're not lubavitch fwiw, more like jpf. We've been on a yeshivish program before that we loved but wanted to try something new. We're not worried about fitting in bc lubavitchers are pretty accepting.

We went. Delicious food, fun activities for the kids. There's a variety of people there. Some more modern some more frum.

If you are MO and you are going to be in the Catskills for pesach, I’m going to recommend Honors Haven. They just announced that that Destination 613 is running a program there this year. I would recommend.

Thanks- looking them up- all I see is last year's program... also- I have found that a lot of the MO programs and sooo much more expensive. Comparing FFH to other programs they are they are lowest pricing I have seen- but have to make a decision soon cuz their early bird special is almost done.

I went last year. Only have good things to say! In the main building where all of the meals are, I believe they redid the rooms but there are also adjacent buildings where the rooms are older. I stayed in the adjacent buildings and didn’t mind the rooms at all. Very spacious! But you do have to walk back to the adjacent building after the meals. Not far (a couple min.) but you have to go outside.
I don’t believe anyone would care if someone’s hair isn’t covered; people bring extended families of different frum levels. She won’t be alone!
If you contact program they are very responsive wrt questions/accommodations
