It is a rustic place to stay with a gorgeous view. We felt safe. Our dinner was fantastic with an exceptionally attentive waitress. She was the ONLY waitress, w/ a fairly full dining area. There was not a long wait for our dinners. Room was not modern but so much better than camping.

Once again, another property owned via a chain corporation. Definitely not for leisure geared more for business travelers than anything else.

Only real issue is finishing work in bathrooms and overall shower water pressure. Room 17 is lacking in that department. Property overall is gorgeous and main lobby area is beautiful. Staff very helpful and friendly as well and check in and out was a pleasant breeze

The room was beautiful and spotless. A good size. Parking handy. Lake view perfect. Breakfast included. I would give five stars if the room was better lit, if there were comforter choices and if there was room in the bathroom to store cosmetics, toothbrushes, etc. All told, this is the best place to stay if you are looking to be in Old Forge/Inlet area.

Nous avons passé un très beau week end entre amie. Le personnel était agréable et l'ambiance cozy friendly était parfaite. Le petit déjeuner était super et offert toute là journée puisque le resto est fermé pour la saison. La chambre était propre et la vue sur le lac était incroyable. Il y a également plusieurs endroit différents pour se reposer, lire et relaxer. Près du village pour se divertir, manger ou s'amuser. Près également de plusieurs endroits pour randonnée ou faire du vélo. Nous avons fait la Black bear mountain et Bald mountain. Assurément que j'y retournerai en été pour essayer les activités nautiques puisqu'un quai est disponible.

Love the little sauna and the living room in the lodge with fireplace. It would be nice if there were a shelf or 2 to put toiletries and cosmetics on when in bathroom and a light over the desk . But it is a very nice getaway . We will be back .. Susan

Have spent a lot of my life on weekends (weeks) in the ADK mountains. This place is a secret gem not far from home for us. Perfect location, beautiful view of 4th lake, awesome cozy rooms - cabins!! We can not wait to come back here again!! Wish bar and restaurant were open Sunday & Mondays, but there was a great little place (Mountain Smokehouse Grill) just up the road north on 28 a mile!! Thank You!!

Honeymoon Suite Stay
We stayed in the Honeymoon Suite! It was fantastic. The room was great, the TV arm rotated so it could be viewed from anywhere in the room and there was access to streaming platforms. So awesome for a cozy night away :)
