We really enjoyed our stay. The apartment was lovely and the view is amazing.

The apartment has poor sound proofing. We could hear the neighbours running up and down the stairs, using the spa and talking/yelling to each other. The apartment also has a strong slope to the back of the building. This was very off putting when we first arrived but we got use to it over our stay.

Amazing location, loved the surroundings; wonderful place to stay, very comfortable, clean, had everything we needed, and was pretty affordable for a long weekend. Very close to country skiing, tubing and mountain skiing at Mt Pisgah, such a cozy little place. Overall, very happy with the stay. Very laid back atmosphere overall, good old America.

May seem a bit pricey but a beautiful location - quiet, comfortable & relaxing! Definitely a rustic cabin, but clean and well stocked! Alan manages the site and is very courteous, welcoming and helpful! Looking forward to our next visit.

Cabins are in need of repair and improvement, but weather and finances impact timing and resources available. Planning process. Overall, they are comfortable and cozy if you like rustic.

Close proximity to saranac lake winter carnival. Accommodations were perfect.

The walkway was very slippery, we had the end unit, could use a little more walkway lighting. The ice marker didn't work. And the heating was tough to regulate. The first floor was very chilly while the second floor was hot.

Great location on the lake. Views from the house were so good. Lots of space and facilities all good. There were plenty of boats to hire on the day. Staff friendly and responsive.

There is nothing bad to say.

Nearby walking paths were fun to explore. Morning and evening views over the bay were a treat from all angles. Interiors are family friendly and kitchen had everything needed in terms of dishes and utensils. Staff was friendly and very responsive. Perfect way to visit with family for an extended stay.

Main road entrance on a curve, so cautiously enter and exit.
