Last summer I decided to go to Mussoorie for my summer holidays. I had signed up with club Mahindra and taken a Club Mahindra Membership.This was my first trip through them. I had read several club Mahindra reviews on the internet. Most of the reviews were critical and said that the resort was not well maintained. I went there expecting the worst but to my surprise I found the resort very well maintained and the staff was very polite and courteous. I was given a complete list of places I could visit.
