Great experience

Clean cozy rooms, great views of Lake George and they offer family fun activities each evening such as making sundaes and root-beer floats and s’mores. Short walk to Shepard park and the center of town.

Paper thin walls, you could hear everyone and everything in other rooms and outside. The room was also very loud, the dated AC unit in the room prevented us from sleeping all night. Also, the whole room was shaking when someone was walking on the same floor - literally. Overall a very unpleasant stay although the motel is nicely located and offers a fun pool and patio. I would never return.

Well maintained, older facility. Lots of kids in our room area, so noisy. The hotel is conscientious about no loud music or smoking. Regretfully, adjacent hotel had a boombox blasting music from Eastern Europe in the evening.

Rooms are small, but clean and comfortable. Staff is friendly. Enjoyed the firepits at night. Bonus last night was fireworks over the lake. Parking is tight, but on par with most of the other hotels. Find a good spot, stay in place, and walk.

Great location, very walkable to stores, restaurants and sites of interest. Best part is the Lake Motel is right on the lake. Loved the patio with the firepits, that really enhanced our stay. Rooms are a little narrow but was fine for overnight stay.
