Went there for dinner on a holiday. The portions are extremely small, the staff is snobbish. After our main course dessert took forever and I had to eventually go and search for my waitress to get my check. Great view and ambiance, but that's it.

Has to be the best all around room & dining experience in the Capital district region. Take the Lake George room if it is available.

The Inn at Erlowest is a stunning old stone castle-like building on beautiful Lake George in the Adirondacks. We took my parents for dinner and were led to a little private diningroom off the kitchen. The room held one table, had a bank of windows and a fireplace. The service was beyond what I've ever experienced at any restaurant. The... More

Chef Ken and Chef Mike will make your dining experience a delicious memory! There wasn't one thing about the food that we didn't like. Perfectly prepared and cooked to perfection!

Spouse and I had an overnight at the Erlowest which included breakfast. Ambiance is Queen Anne elegance on beautiful Lake George. Guest room had a split of champagne, chocolate covered strawberries and other snacks which only added to the graciousness of this lovely inn. Breakfast was delicious, and ample. Certainly worth a drive for the view, ambiance and meal.

We stayed at the castle at Erlowest and had planned to have dinner there. Unfortunately the dining room was closed the night we were there. Breakfast was served however, and it was simply outstanding in every way. The Inn is beautiful and in great shape, but the breakfast made the stay that much better. Thanks to the great staff at...

As a Member of a group of "foodies" that dine around every few weeks, we consistently visit the Erlowest every 2-3 Months and are delighted time and time again with the changing Menus and small/large design. We have been traveling here for nearly... More
