It was a real treat to stay at the Balsam Inn! The Inn is off the beaten path like I wanted and very very quite. Jenny is a warm welcoming host. She even upgraded my room just because it was available. The room itself was beautiful! It felt like I was a guest in someones Adirondack mountain home. Antique furniture, pines cones, snowshoes, layered bedding...like in an LLBean catalog. The bed was super comfy. I had a large screen TV and mini fridge in the room. Although there is a...

Was a great place to stay. They had awesome food at their restaurant. Nice friendly managers of the property. Remembered names of people in my party. Had two fire pits which we enjoyed. Within 30 minutes of lots of stuff to do. We would stay there again. They made us feel like family.

For such a small town this hotel is perfect! Very nice rustic rooms, comfortable beds. Cozy fire place! Nice and clean! Love that you don't need to check in!

The Gore Mountain Lodge is a wonderful and unique spot minutes from Gore Mountain ski area and the fun town of North Creek. Rooms are clean, comfortable and creatively decorated. It does not feel like a motor inn. We will go back.

My boyfriend and I booked at the last minute after deciding to stay overnight/into the next day after a work outing. This area is 3 hours from our home and offers great opportunities to kayak and mountain bike, so we came with a geared-up truck. If you've ever stayed at Lake George in the summer, you know that last-minute accomodations on any of the main thoroughfares are difficult to find and often expensive. This was neither of those. It's your basic, bare-bones style motel - nothing fancy,...

We were in New York to observe the eclipse of April 2024. We found the room very clean, quiet, and well appointed for our needs. The staff was congenial, answering questions and offering suggestions. We would definitely stay here again, and recommend it to our friends.

Our stay was wonderful. Beds were very comfortable, just like Marriott standards. Room was all updated. The Lean To on site bar/restaurant had excellent food, and the updated bar and furnishings first rate. Lots of places to sit with a cup of coffe, read, and enjoy the lake views. Not all outlets were working and we needed a little more space to put our things. I would definitely go back.

The room was spotless- the pipes had some issues but the staff worked on it immediately and went above and beyond to ensure our stay was great!! Would 100% stay again!!
