Since it emerged as a playground for the prominent families of the Gilded Age, Lake Placid's timber and stone Great Camps have housed generations of vacationers. Designed in the style of the Great Camps, Lake Placid Lodge's arts and crafts-style lodge blends seamlessly into the forest, while expansive stone porches offer sweeping lake views.

This was our second stay, which says it all. This time we stayed in the main lodge, which is remarkable. The decor is the way it should be in the Adirondack’s, a rustic but elegant charm. The staff are very friendly and make you feel at home. The views at breakfast cannot be beat, and the food all very tasty no matter the meal. We will definitely be coming back!

We stayed lake side in a stand alone cabin (Wikasa). Two bedrooms (2bath) and living room. Fireplace was great, really made the cabin feel come alive. The Adirondack decor was was well done, beds were very comfortable and the view amazing. All the staff were very helpful and happy. Adirondak Ed was a great story teller and The Adk Raptor guy had some great owls and hawks, very informative, kids loved holding the owls. Each cabin had had their own view. 2 min drive to town. I would stay there again.

My husband and I drove 6 hours from PA to Lake Placid Lodge for a weekend getaway without our children. We had lake front cabin “Colden.” Our room was spacious and very clean. We loved the rustic luxury it offered. Staff were great! Anytime we need more wood, our room service etc, hey we’re always prompt to respond. My only gripe is that the drinks at Maggie’s Pug (1 if the on-site restaurants), were not well done. I’ve traveled all over the world, and when a drink is $18 it should be on point. Not only was if not on point, but it was terrible. The bar tender is friendly, however, it’s important that she is properly trained and drinks are tasted my managers. To me, also being a past bartender. I don’t believe this has occurred. Other then the above. The entire resort is fabulous! We would love to return in the summer.

My wife and I were staying at Whiteface Lodge last evening and took a car to the Lake Placid Lodge to meet colleagues for a cocktail at the bar. This was around 8 p.m. on a Sunday night. We have stayed at Lake Placid Lodge several times in the past and have NEVER been treated this way. When we walked in, we were RUDELY stopped by front desk staff by the name "Julie". She told us to leave as apparently it was "too busy" of an evening for us to have drinks downstairs. We expect a lot more from the Lake Placid Lodge and its "5 star" standard. Based on this unacceptable treatment, my wife and I will NOT be making any future plans to stay at Lake Placid Lodge. We also regret to say that we can no longer recommend our clients and colleagues to visit the Lake Placid Lodge because of the below average customer service, specifically Julie.

We will be returning often! The staff is very friendly and intently works to be accommodating. For example, 1 ) I wanted a small plate dish while in the Pub and so I requested to split the Artisans Restaurant Surf and Turf dish with my husband and the pub staff and chef were 💯 accommodating, The steak was cooked exactly as my husband requested and the lobster tail was also cooked superbly for me! 2) We also 💯enjoy the gorgeous wood burning fireplaces, because their staff immediately replenishes the wood when requested. 3) We highly enjoy the decor of this resort, it is art created by Local Talented Artists. 4) The views of nature are stellar from this location. 5) I find the complimentary details in the rooms very welcoming, and fun.

The Lake Placid Lodge is beautiful! But that doesn't make up for the poor service that is simply unacceptable at this price point. Almost everyone we encountered was "new" and clearly needed training and a better understanding of hospitality. Definitely skip the restaurant.

My family of four chose to return to the Lodge for the Christmas holiday. It was well worth the 5 hour drive from Boston, just missing the winter storm. We were delighted when being offered a glass of champagne while checking in to White Face (1,300 sf) and Tree Top on the third floor of the main lodge. The accommodations were ideal for us, as the rooms connect for the ultimate in family gatherings. Views of the lake from our rooms were magical. Maggie’s is a fun warm pub featuring a delicious menu and a pool table next to the bar. We enjoyed in room dining for breakfast all 3 mornings, delivered hot and tasty. Besides lunch and dinner in Maggie’s, we had an incredible dining experience in the wine cellar featuring Arltisans menu. This was the family opportunity of a lifetime. We enjoyed walks in the fresh snow around the property and lake. Christmas Eve was memorable sitting around the fireplace opening gifts. Shout out to Matthew in Maggie’s who was a Star server and bartender along with the front desk team who were all pleasant and service oriented. We could not be more pleased with our second visit to Lake Placid Lodge and look forward to returning for another memorable family holiday.

One of the only boutique hotels on the world with real fire places in all rooms and cabins! To summarize: A Relais & Chateaux experience. Fine food, great service, superb location. A real white Christmas… While cabins by the lake are outstanding you may consider main building in winter to avoid the drive for dinner

We made a reservation a month ago and put down a non-refundable deposit. Received a call today, 5 days before we were supposed to arrive, to hear that they were over booked and that they cancelled our reservation. Totally unacceptable. We are now scrambling to find an alternative.

We stayed in a lake view room and found it very comfortable. Of course the setting is stunning. But, as others have said, the service is not up to par. The service staff are nice and friendly, but are inconsistent in replenishing the complementary snacks and other amenities. Front desk could have been more helpful, too. I asked for a foot stool twice to help with getting into the bed and never received one. I was also never informed that breakfast was complementary - though I recall hearing that when I first reserved, our confirmation posted a 20% discount. Given the high prices on mediocre food, we hassled through even more mediocre food in town for breakfast, only to discover at the end that breakfast DID come with the room. Artisans restaurant tries, but how can they have more fresh food when few people eat there. Wait staff was friendly but knew nothing about wine. Not okay for dinners of that price. Clearly there is a shortage of well trained servers in the area.
