I saw a lakeside castle or hotel from the air, north of Newark. What is it?

My guess would be the Mohonk Mountain House, “Around the last bend, a Victorian castle rises above Lake Mohonk, surrounded by carefully landscaped gardens and pristine wilderness. Inside you discover a warm interior that is reminiscent of the beauty outside – extensive woodwork, fireplaces constructed from Shawangunk stone, and expansive windows that frame the breathtaking scenery.”

The whole area can be well viewed by Google Maps

Southeast of the lake is a talus mound, atop which sits the Albert K. Smiley memorial.

Another interesting view, available within Google Maps is the Mohonk Labyrinth Trail, providing a close us panorama of the talus rock falls.
