It's a Nice place with a Restaurant/Bar that Hops at night and a Live Band at the Outside Bar a about a hundred feet away from the Inn. The lake is nice with a public Beach front that you can swim or lay out. Nice to the Beach is a ice cream place lots of flavors and a place you can rent small kayaks etc. It's a easy ride off I87 to the Nest and From the Nest it's a easy ride to Saratoga Springs Town and Horse Racing. We had a nice time, just beware Friday and Saturday day and night the place is Hoping and if you want sleep it's not going to happen until after 11 pm.

More like an absentee AirBnB than an "Inn"

Issue with room on arrival was handled graciously by proprietor. But general vibe is this is a side business of the restaurant and bar and not priority of the business owner and management. Lots of little issues that could have been handled better with consistent policies and checks by owner or manager.

Lovely and clean location. Very quiet because of off-season timing. But also because we were there off-season, there was no one on site. We did have one question and we were able to contact someone to get answers.

Cute Rooms, Convenient Dining

The room decor is tasteful, we saw two rooms and both were unique. In spite of being above a restaurant/bar with live music, it was very quiet and the music stopped at an appropriate hour.

Perfect Stay at the Nest

Another fantastic stay at The Nest. We first enjoyed the awesome food and service with live music by Dan Mellon at Doc Brown's. Then we went upstairs at our comfortable and clean room at the Nest. Our stay was perfect! Thank you to the incredible staff at this gem! We'll be back!

What an absolute lovely place. We stayed in the Josephine and it was perfect for our needs. The room is decorated in a shabby chic vibe and so warm and welcoming. My husband says this is THE MOST comfortable bed he has ever slept in at a hotel. That says a lot!!! Keep up the great work. The only 2 suggestions I have are: 1) co.mand strip hooks in the bathroom for towels 2) box of tissues Thank you again for letting us use your room. Fabulous and it's definitely on the list to return to.

Relaxing

I believe I was the only guest while I was there. Right now, Saratoga Lake is way off season. There were a few things that needed to be done. For example, there was no heat to the room. Once I let them know, there was plenty of heat. Everyone was very nice and friendly. I couldn't have asked for nicer staff.
