This is the second time that we have stayed at Lake Placid Lodge. The first time was in the Owl's Nest and this time in Kiwassa. The resort is peaceful with so much to do on the property. The staff is friendly and welcoming. Our 2 bedroom cabin was wonderful...beautiful decor, comfortable living room furniture, comfortable beds and well appointed bathroom. We had an issue with one of the AC units. They were not able to correct the situation to my husband's satisfaction while we were staying in the room so they reduced our final payment for the room. He felt like they took care of the situation. I plan to make this an annual visit.

We stayed at the Lodge for one night and enjoyed our experience. We stayed in one of the Cabins, which we liked very much — very spacious and with exceptional views of the lake. Service was very good, and we enjoyed experiencing the hikes around the property. It is a bit of a trek to get up to the main house, and the restaurant food was unimpressive, but the siting is still quite special. If you have plans to be in the area, the lodge is a nice choice.

This was a 3rd trip to Lake Placid Lodge, I understand that its very difficult to find good help in the post - COVID world but was very disappointed with the cleaning of the room. We stayed at the lodge for 2 nights and the cleaning service was so poor. We returned to our room in the afternoon and I commented to my husband that it looked like a 5 year old made the bed and the towels were hang very messy. I would have just been annoyed by that but when I felt the bath tub and it wasn't cleaned, I called the front desk. Within a few minutes of the call to the front desk one of the house cleaning supervisors knocked at the door and cleaned the entire room again. Glad the staff was so responsive but definitely some disconnect in the training.

Really disappointed by the quality of the room. In need of serious updating. The view from our deck was beautiful though. Maybe the rooms in the main building are nicer. Food in the restaurant was nothing special. Service was well intentioned. Highlight was a private boat tour of the lake.

This is our second stay, separated by 5 years. Our first was in Hearthside, this time in Ampersand cabin. The furnishings (case goods) are a 10++. Our housekeeping and waitstaff experience was excellent. Great amenities. The dining is excellent. My exceeds-all-expectations moment was the mahogany boat trip around the lake. This is a special lake and a superb property. Just for perspective (having stayed here once before and LOVING it) before we came this time I read all the recent 1 star reviews. They all have one finger pointing at the lodge and 4 fingers right back at themselves.
