Everything is wonderful about the Lamplight Inn. The rooms, the food, the area, the atmosphere and especially the innkeepers Gene and Linda. The best people you could ever want to meet. We love it at this inn and will continue to go to it each and every year at least twice a year.

Thank you sooo much. Sorry for the delay in answering. We have been so busy and just become a Mom and Pop operation for the Fall. Hard when staff leaves for College or Thailand.

We had gotten married there 27 years ago and were back for the first time. The hosts were the same folks who were there when we married- Linda and Gene. They are so friendly and helpful, the room was immaculate and the breakfast food and service were amazing. We’re thinking we might make this an annual visit!

Elegant and Romantic Getaway
We celebrated our 35th anniversary at this beautiful bed and breakfast. The Inn was absolutely beautiful and the room was very clean and decorated with such attention to detail. The inn keepers were very friendly and hospitable. When Linda realized I had a little dog, she went out of her way to give us two harnesses that had belonged to her dog. Very thoughtful and kind. Finally the breakfast was a 5 star treat. We will never forget our romantic stay at Lamplight Inn. Many thanks to Gene and Linda

Peaceful Elegance
This is a classic old fashioned Bed and Breakfast. Beautiful Victorian home. The breakfast is incredible and extremely filling. Kinda and Gene are fantastic hosts. We always stay in the main house. Be advised there is no elevator and all rooms are on second floor. If you can't climb stairs, you should book in the little cottage out back. It's nice to stay away from the tourist trap of Lake George! If you really need to go there, it's a 20min drive. We will definitely be coming back!

Top Notch! Beautiful B&B
This is the most amazing Bed and Breakfast ever!!!! Beautiful rooms and grounds, delicious breakfast cooked up by Gene himself and his wife Linda who bakes better than my mother! And my mother is a fantastic baker! If you want a romantic getaway, or just time to relax and take a little step back in time, this is the place for you. We will be returning for years to come. My husband and I love it here.

Outstanding in all aspects
This was our first stay at a bed and breakfast. My wife and I needed a night away and we picked a winner. We are from near Saratoga Springs and amazed at this Oasis we found in Luzerne. I can’t say enough about the property, room, breakfast and staff. Linda and Gene were incredible hosts and put so much into their place and making sure their guests are welcome and comfortable. Sally is wonderful too. We went away for one night and came home feeling like we are old friends. We will definitely be back and I urge anyone near or far away to try this B&B - you will not be disappointed! Thank you Gene and Linda for an outstanding experience!!!

We get a lot of our winter guests from the Albany, NY area. Since we are just within an hour for most, and us upstate New Yorkers know how to drive in snow. We want you to feel like you are a million miles away and are pampered for a little while.

Charming bed and breakfast north of Saratoga
I absolutely loved my stay at the Lamplight Inn. I was in NY for racing and the sales at Saratoga, so it was a bit off the beaten path....but 100% worth the peace and quiet! I appreciated the suggestion to climb Hadley Mountain (great view from the Fire Tower!) and loved the teddy bear antics. I would definitely recommend the Lamplight Inn.

Don't pass up this up.. an amazing place
The stay was great! Gene and Linda are friendly, warm hosts who are concerned about making sure your stay is top notch. When we arrived, HOTELS.COM was having some technical problems and there was an issue with the reservation. Gene and Linda worked with us to make sure it was resolved quickly and then upgraded our room for our troubles, even though the issue was with Hotels.com and not them. The room (Northern) was spacious, comfortable and clean. Biggest and most pleasant surprise was the breakfast! Start with a fresh baked muffin or pastry, fruit and yogurt, Linda's home made granola and associated fixings. There is a daily special, French Toast one morning, followed by Belgian Waffles with strawberries and cream, the next day on this visit. Then there is your choice of eggs.... and this is all included! Don't forget to include a gratuity for your server, because this is not a little buffet in a back room, but a sit down, cooked to order, full breakfast. Service wise, if no one was at the main house, you had a number to call and they were there for you. Location, the Lamplight is a little off the beaten path, which we thought was great. Very quiet, but very close to everything. You can walk to a gourmet restaurant (Up River Cafe), a small supermarket, drug store, and the beach on Lake Luzerne. You are 10-15 minutes from bigger cities and main highways. All in all, it is well worth the value and the stay!
