location was great. amenities were awesome. lots for the kids/teens to do. Lake access was wonderful. pool was very clean. views were amazing. staff was friendly and prompt to respond to requests.
hotel rooms need to be updated and in my opinion lakeside hotels should not have carpeting. no towels at pool. had to bring the room towels or purchase at stand. no showers at pool. there should be fire pits at every sitting area. I was unable to use the two beautiful fire pits on the lake because they were occupied by large families both nights for hours. or consider having time slots so everyone can enjoy them.

The staff were very nice and kind. The service was great. Location was great. Having café, pool, games , firepit, beach and playscape are great amenities. Rained during my stay so we had to used room towels to dry off chairs. Not sure if beach towels can be provided in the future. I will definitely be back in the summer.
The bed was not comfortable. The floor was not level , so we had to sleep the foot side of the bed. The walls are paper thin that you can hear all the commotion outside and rooms next door. But guests appear to be having a great time.

We love the location and the amenities! We have two toddlers so having a pool, beach and playground all on the premises is great! We also love that they have family rooms which offer a separate sleeping area for the kids. The basketball court was a huge hit with the kids too! They offer grills and picnic tables which were perfect for cooking and staying on premises with the kids. The view is beautiful, the kids loved seeing the Minne HaHa pass by every day. The fire pits on the beach and music were a great way to end the day. My 4 year old was ecstatic to hear them play Taylor Swift on one of our last nights she danced her heart out while we enjoyed the fire.
The porch had raised boards which both myself and my kids tripped on. The barn door in the kids room did not stay closed so we had to stick a towel in the door to keep it closed at bedtime. The toilet seat was extremely loose so my 4 year old cried because it would pinch her legs every time she had to use the bathroom. We lost power for an entire day, we were disappointed the hotel did not have a generator for those situations.

The beach, pool and cafe area were really great amenities to have on property, especially for families. The staff was very nice, professional and accommodating to all of our needs. The room was clean and comfortable.
The one issue we encountered was that the bathroom was not quite safe in terms of balance and level. The floor sloped noticeably but the more difficult part was the tub - without a grab bar and/or friction pads on the bottom of the tub, the very narrow slippery tub floor proved to be daunting for a shower. Please consider adding some safety features to the shower stalls and tub floors.

We loved the convenience of the pool, beach, splash pad, cafe and activities all on one level close together. The staff was wonderful especially Beth.
The arcade could use a little updating. Most of the games were broken or in poor shape. The rooms are definitely a bit loud especially if you have young kids. I think you should probably expect this since it's summer but our neighbors played loud music right outside our door until after 10 pm every night.

Staff was very helpful and kind. Location was perfect for town and was close to highway which we needed quite a bit for the stuff we wanted to do. The steamboat that goes by plays music like the old Mikey Mouse cartoons which was really cool.
Bar was only open till 8 and yet the pool was open till 10...didnt make sense should of been the opposite. Parking was a little chaotic with how you can park wherever, had to park away from my room because someone else was always parked right outside my room. Also the Mushroom Waterfall thing didn't glow like the picture showed, very upsetting

It was a good family resort especially for the kids. The lake was great and the pool was clean. I like the fact that you could bring your own drinks and food. The fireworks display was great.
The prices were high in the cafe and it closed at 8 pm. On the night of the fireworks they could have stayed open later. The toilet bowl was for a 10 year old. There was no handle in the shower. There was no chest to put your clothes. There was no tissues to blow your nose. No phone in the room to call the front office.

the staff were immediately super welcoming and helpful, the rooms were clean. towels and bins replaced daily. AC worked amazing after the hot days on the beach and walking around LG. free wifi worked well enough to watch movies online without any problems. the cafe provides amazing food and there’s an indoor bar with friendly and outgoing staff. pool lights up once dark which is so beautiful whether you want to go for a swim or just sit nearby for a meal. campfires nightly to enjoy warmth after sunset. accessible toilets in the room and on the beach. nice front porch in front of our room with two chairs and a table. 10/10, would definitely stay again.

The beachfront area is probably the largest private beach area in Lake George, there are plenty of beach chairs and loungers, there is a great pool area with plenty of tables and chairs, and a nice lounge area between the pool and lake with comfortable couches and umbrellas. The snack shack and bar are just a couple steps away from the pool, with an arcade if you have kids with you. There are kayak and other lake rentals right on the property. The rooms are clean and updated.
