    Saranac Lake has come a long way since I lived there 50 years ago. Clean with many new restaurant choices. More affordable, less crowded, and more local than touristy Lake Placid. Recommended day trips to Adirondack Museum in Blue Mountain Lake and the incredible array of hiking trails at Paul Smith's College a half hour away.

    Beauty of the house and surroundings, size of the room,...

    Beauty of the house and surroundings, size of the room, closeness to town and main sites were all good. Breakfast could be improved in terms of the time of availability and more healthy options; the cleaning fee is absurd, esp when there is no value for the guest since rooms are only cleaned after check out and should at least be tidied during the stay.

    This is a very biased review as the weather was cool, windy and rainy, which colored our time there!! Add to that the absolute dump we stayed in, it was booked the same day, but, still no excuse!! We arrived on Sunday, Aug. 6th at 7:00pm in Saranac. Not wanting to eat in the nasty apt, I searched for restaurants. Most closed at 7:30-8, but La Bella Ristorante was open till 8:30 and said coming in at 8 was not a problem. This is a family owned restaurant and everyone working there was related. Family is originally from Kosovo. The daughter & a young man waited on us. We had veal piccata and fettuccini Alfredo with salads & bread and a bottle of wine. Food was delicious!! The family was delightful and we WAAAY overstayed our time as my husband had spent time in Kosovo, is an Immigration Attorney and we had lots of conversation!! I would not hesitate to recommend the place!!

    This little town is eclectic and fun.

    This little town is eclectic and fun. We have spent lots of time in lake placid but saranac is not crowded. They have great restaurants and the most friendly people. We prefer saranac over lake placid more every time we stay here.

    The best part of Saranac Lake, besides the natural beauty is the proximity to Lake Placid! Lake Placid is only about 15 minutes away and has the more tourist and things to do, while Saranac Lake is more quiet and quaint, so you have the best of both worlds. I have stayed in Lake Placid and in Saranac Lake and both were great! I personally liked staying in Saranac and driving into Lake Placid when I wanted to ratchet up the fun!

    The area is full of lakes so you have a variety.

    The area is full of lakes so you have a variety. You can rent motor boats and canoes and use SUPs. It’s a short drive into Lake Placid if you want to see the Olympic area and quaint town. We had a few meals at Little Italy and they were fantastic. We had family in the area so we spent time visiting with them. We enjoyed the river walk area in town and the park on Lake flower is pretty and had some visiting Canadian Geese. A lot of the attractions are not open yet, but I’m sure they will be soon.

    A typical road side motel on the Saranac lake. Directly on the busy through going road there’s a lot of traffic noise in the room. The room itself is ok, a road side motel room, nothing more nothing less. The lake is very busy and not paticulary nice here. Saranac town is over the hill with most places boarded up and out of business. Our family left soon and went to nicer parts of the Adirondack.

    Excellent location (which allows the property to charge premium price in the holiday season - we went during the week between Christmas and New Year). One can walk - there's a sidewalk - to the Village of Saranac Lake as well as to grocery store, coffee shops, breweries, etc. Our room had a refrigerator, microwave, a vintage toaster, and surprise - Keurig; all of them were useful.

    The hotel is beautiful and clean. Staff was very friendly and accommodating with our family. My hubby and I wanted to grab a drink on our last night after we had a dip in the pool, in our robes I might add without our wallets. We didn’t realize that it was passed the restaurant’s closing time but the front desk and restaurant were happy to accommodate us and made us feel welcomed!

    Cute little cabin with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms that we shared with our friends. This is a beautiful setting with fire pits and chairs. There was a hiking trail right behind the property and a convenience store around the corner. It was close to Lake Placid and we also went up to White Face Mountain. Ideal for a 2 night stay. We loved it.

    Gorgeous home with history. Feels like a home away from home. Super clean and well kept. Great proximity to Lake Placid and downtown Saranac Lake and the lake. The owners are so warm and welcoming, truly made our stay super enjoyable. Highly recommend for a weekend getaway!

    Hotel looked newly renovated. Beds were very comfortable. Fire pits outside and the different garden games were a nice touch. Fine quality of the bed linens, towels and bathrobe was more than expected. Very comfortable bed and quiet room.

    Breakfast was good; a lot of options and very convenient. Given I was doing the Ironman Lake Placid on Sunday my breakfast was key. So that worked out very well. Also, all the staff were super friendly and helpful.
