Everything you need in a lodge. Very near Gore Mountain and that is basically what we love most at this property.

Great Spot. The Yurt Spot at Beck behind the motel are cooler than they let you know. If you are going to go to Gore to ski, Check this place out first!

Coziest stay in ADK
It’s the coziest room you can get that close to Gore Mountain. 8 pillows of various sizes and shapes on each bed make for a comfortable sleep. Little touches like glass bottled local water and a bag of Swedish Fish candy make this place stand apart from the competition. I’ll continue to stay there whenever I’m in the area.

What a great small town hotel. The room was very clean and had all the essentials. You can walk next door to Beck's Tavern which is a great place for food, drink and hanging with the locals who were all very friendly. This isn't the Ritz but if you like local spots with the friendly vibe, this is the place for you when in North Creek, NY.

Motel 6 in disguise.
Upon arrival at 4:30 the office was locked. The photo on-line is a picture of Becks Tavern making people think the motel looks like a lodge. Pillow cases had stains of who knows what! The room had an awful odor and there were “odor eater” containers in the corner which looked like they have been there for years. The cost for the one night stay was over $200.00. The value should have been closer to $78.00 (being generous). I have no idea how this place gets rave reviews especially with the price you pay. We did eat at Becks Tavern. Typical bar food but overpriced for what you get. I recommend you drive into town and stay elsewhere.

We got there late on a Saturday night. The keyless check in via the emailed pin pad worked perfectly. Although the kitchen was short staffed in the pub, the food came out quick and we got to have a few beers after a long day on the motorcycle. The room was clean and well furnished. If I ever come back through, I’ll be sure to stay there again!

Charming place… recommended
Never judge a book by its cover. We pulled up to the motel and immediately thought “ Bates motel”. But once you park and enter your room, it was a charming spot. Clean, comfortable, I was more than satisfied. Becks in the back was great. Didn’t have dinner but the live music and tasty drinks made this charmer a must hit again. Also the bagels at izzzys deli in town are the best outside NYC.

Welcoming. Would go back.
Our family of four stayed in a bunk bed room and overall we loved it. Everything about the hotel was welcoming. During covid with an unvaxed kid we were very happy to have the yurts (largely unused when the bar is closed) to hang out in during the week. If I could ask the owner to improve anything; 1 better toilet paper 2. Work on the towels which were clean but still smelled musty and 3. Better entrance rugs to catch the dirt as the rooms got quite gritty even though we were religious about taking off our shoes. If you did those three things your hotel would earn another star. That said, I’d likely go back if I were in the area.

Tamara, Thank you for the feed back. We will see what we can do about the items, but item 1 is no possible to adjust. Having a facility that has a septic systems on site, in order to keep those systems running, have to use the most biodegradable toilet paper product on the market, or bigger issues evolve! Difficulties of not living with large metro municipalities in the remote mountains.

Although the room was very clean and comfortable, the room we stayed in (#10) had a terrible odor the entire time we were there, so that spoiled our stay.

Passing through - wish we’d had more time!
Imagine- after a day of skiing, hiking or touring around the beauty of North Creek/Gore Mountain, returning to an updated and comfortable version of a motor lodge. Great WiFi, thoughtful places to dry your gloves, boots, wet clothes; comfortable chairs and beds, fridge, microwave and suggestions for eats, coffee, etc. We arrived quite late and were warmly welcomed! A true gem.

Very ideal place for a family or friends to North Creek, NY. Few minutes (1 mile) from Gore Mountain. Beck's Pub is excellent, on site. Great food and cheer, really cool peeps. The yurts were very fun, stocked with fire wood, games/cards, and was a chill lounging area. Definitely will stay again
