Recreation/Attractions tip, Short Drive

Circle B Ranch was a fantastic, authentic horseback riding experience. Their prices are much better than those right in the Lake George area. It is a bit of a drive (about 20 min.) but well worth it. My wife and I had a private ride for only $35 per horse. Everything else was about $70 per horse.

Very convenient location

Lake George Fan Sep 8, 2009

Would recommend to a friend!

The hotel is in super convenient location with walking distance to the promenade, beach, and dining, which is great when it ... gets busy and difficult to park. Is is a regular motel, the room is large, the beds are clean. The bathroom is very small, but sufficient for a quick shower. There is a large refrigerator and a safe in the room. Air conditioning works fine. There are both indoor and outdoor pools with convenient hours and not too much chlorine. Overall this is a good place to stay for the money. It is exactly what we expected, no more, no less. The biggest benefit is location.

Expected it to be better.

Big Tuna Aug 2, 2009

We had to switch out room. The first room had adjoining doors. We could hear everything the family next to us was saying and ... doing. We could not get any sleep or peace and quiet. The second room was better, but we could hear people thumping on the floor above us. Wouldn't recommend to stay here if you don't have kids and want a peaceful vacation. The room stunk and left a smell on all our clothes. Rug was damp. Maid service was questionable. Did the bare minimum.

The room was vey clean and they let us in when we got there we did not have to wait until 4:00 which when we got there is was ... only 2:00 from a long motorcycle ride. The room was clean and had 3 pillows on each bed which is great, usually we have to ask for a couple of more. The hotel was close enough we could walk to most places.
