Grandview Lake Placid

Grandview Lake Placid

10/10 Excellent
"The rooms were clean including bedsheets. Property is located slightly higher from mai street which gives a nice view of lake and mountains. Also, privacy compared to other properties at lake. The live omelet station at breakfast was the main highlight. The private is 1 km away and one can drive as well. Plenty of parking available at hotel and private beach."
