Beautiful little place right on saranac lake. Our room had a private balcony and was very comfortable. Forget those higher priced accommodations. This little gem was very pleasant for us and our wallet.

The room had an overwhelming smell of bleach that barely wet away with all of the windows and door open. No place to put things in the bathroom. Need more shelves and hooks.

It was off season which may account for it being so quiet. The use of bikes, canoe, kayaks complete with life jackets all at your fingertips at no cost when ever you needed it, was great. And you are right on the lake!!! Manager and staff were very friendly.

Expensive for what it is. Need a refresh to bring it to the 21st century. Yucky bathroom/shower and mattress is the same one from 1975. Convenient if you need access to Saranac though. Quiet and safe location.

This is in a great are, close to everything. When staying there you feel like you’re not in town viewing the beautiful lake. They offer canoes and kayaks. It’s right across from a marina A great Mexican restaurant right across the street with a liquor store next-door, very convenient. The room was small, but sufficient for two people. The bed was comfortable. I would add shelving in the bathroom. Need more space for toiletries. The mornings were quiet and beautiful when the sun came up, lighting the mountains in the background. It was great for a weekend stay. Will come back.
