Cosy room, clean bathroom, useable kitchen with all useful appliances. Loved the back yard with the fire pit. A little bit of a drive from our home but it was worth the effort. I would come again.

I wasn't there to be connected to my devices but the wifi was spotty if you are traveling for business or with kids. Other than that, it was perfect as a base to explore and has generous amenities and was clean.

Késő este érkeztünk a szállásra. A kulcs rendelkezésre állt, a szobánkat gyorsan elfoglaltuk. Egy bájos, tiszta szoba várt minket, nagyon fáradtak voltunk és jól esett itt megpihenni, az ágy kényelmes volt, volt meleg víz a fürdőszobában.

Was greeted promptly! Our room wasn’t ready yet because of some issues they were having…they offered to upgrade us but we chose to wait for our cottage room! They were very accommodating to have us relax why we waited! The cottage was so relaxing and quiet! Sat on the porch and listened to the rain fall! Very cozy location!

Great Place for a Hiker
I’ve read some other comments about this being an older property. Honestly, any motel is going to be older. I found this motel to be in very good condition overall. My room was very clean and very comfortable. It was fully stocked with all of the typical hotel items. The kitchen was stocked with most anything you would need, though I only stayed one night and did not cook. The back yard was full of several small decks, grills, and other items that would allow you to enjoy a summer evening outside. I’ve stayed in a handful of motels as I’ve hiked in the Adirondacks and Catskills regions and this was the cleanest, most comfortable, and best maintained. I would definitely stay here again if I am back in the area doing more hiking.

Property was clean. Amenities were as advertised. However, shower temperatures fluctuate from hot to freezing. Stovetop was uneven, making it somewhat difficult to cook.

Outdated, but I could see they had tried to their best to look like a new and clean property with tight budget. It smelled something mold. It could be from old carpet? I wanted to rate 3 stars, but I gave 4 because it’s an excellent location for ski resort and the kitchen area inside room.

The check in was quick and easy. The room was very decent. The beds were comfortable. There was a nice kitchen and the rest room was clean. It is a perfect room for a quick stay before hitting the slopes.
