We were there off season so it really was very quiet and peaceful. The customer service was beyond compare and the room was large and comfortable. The balcony was perfect and the view was amazing. The pool and hot tub in the main lodge were wonderful but a bit more of a “hike” for us from the Waterfront Collection. Unfortunately I found the pool and hot tub at the Lake Lodge to be in disrepair so we did not use them despite the fact that they were closer.

Smokers paradise. Well kept facility. Plenty of amenities, indoor and outdoor pool, hot tub, fitness room, beautiful view of the lake. We had a non-smoking room, but the neighbor was on the porch smoking and the heater just blew the smoke in. Great if you are a smoker. Terrible when my wife has asthma. I told the front desk but they didn’t do anything. The next night the same thing. I think I smoked my first pack of cigarettes those two days. I am watching my credit card for smoke cleaning fees. Another time I road the elevator down to the lobby and that smelled of smoke. Smokers will love this place, non-smokers beware.

Horrible check in. Ryan claimed my card was declined (he entered wrong exp date). He sent us to wrong parking lot/building. Had to unpack/repack my car to drive to another facility. Building is not ADA compliant with no elevator and was given a room up two flights of stairs which I am unable to climb. I called to complain and was given a different room, but it took 1/2 for someone to bring the key. Nice room but WILL NEVER STAY AGAIN!

It had the potential to be a great stay, however we were greeted with unenthusiastic staff, a leaking roof in the hallway outside our room, a large soft water spot in the roof of our room and our sliding glass door unlocked and having to call the front desk to have someone come in and lock it as we couldn’t get it to lock.

Nice place

My daughter and I stayed here on a quick trip to hike in the ADKs. Because we were there off season the hotel was more affordable than usual. It’s a beautiful hotel with a lot to do (way more in the summer). It’s right in the heart of Placid and allows you easy access to all of the shops and restaurants.
