Very comfortable beds! Very roomy. Short drive to Lake Placid. One of best motels we have stayed at. Only complaint, and it's minor, no microwave in the room. Short walk to the office to use theirs.

This is an older property like a lot of the small hotels in this area, so it is dated, but very well maintained, cleaned and has all that you need for an enjoyable stay. The location was fantastic. My only negative comment is the beds were horribly hard and uncomfortable. And unfortunately after long days of hiking you need a comfortable bed to sleep in. But balanced with the price, I would definitely stay here again and just bring a mattress topper with me.
