Great place

by KEP89410

Absolutely loved this charming motel on the lake.
We had an upstairs room with a view..
Loved the nightly firepit... too chilly to use kayaks or canoes but they were there for use.
The beds weren’t the greatest but everything else was wonderful. Location away from the hustle and bustle of downtown Lake Placid.

Make sure you don't have to cancel your reservation!

We have stayed here several times in the past and recently made a reservation to go back again. At the time I made the reservation I knew my dates were a little sketchy and I was told that as long as I cancelled within 30 days I'd be fine. What I was NOT told was that I would be charged 10% as a 'service fee' for canceling regardless.

I found that out when after a couple of weeks I DID need to cancel and noticed my entire deposit was not refunded. Upon calling I was told that this has been the policy for 30 years and I should have read the fine print in the confirmation. Really? So you took 10% of the money I paid for what ...? Oh, to cover the hassle of putting it in the system and then taking it back out again with plenty of time to rebook. Oh, and the 3% that the credit card company charges (which I know because my business is 100% credit card based).

Very lame. So ... if you're going to book with this place you better be darned sure nothing comes up to change your plans or you'll be throwing money way. Thankfully I only gave a 1-night deposit, not the multi night that they 'suggest'.
