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.

My husband and I just returned from a few nights at Lake Placid Lodge. We were delighted with our Lakeside cottage, just steps from the shore of beautiful Lake Placid. We swam, paddle-boarded, hiked, did some yoga with Sue, and played tennis at the adjacent club. One day we did a nature walk with Ed, and that was terrific, and enjoyed a ride on the wooden motor boat with Michael. The hotel is top notch, the suite (separate living room and bedroom) was filled with handmade Adirondack furniture, with a big patio overlooking the lake. We had a package that included breakfast each morning. We ate dinner at the lodge twice in Maggies pub. All the food was well made and flavorful. The staff were kind and attentive. I would absolutely recommend the hotel and hope to be able to go there again. They are part of Relais and Chateaux designation, and deserved this association.

Everything was excellent. Food was great, yoga was fun on the dock, boat ride around lake is a must, and the Nature Talk & Walk with Ed was informative &amazing! Lots to do & see besides heading to the Town of Lake Placid which was great also. Everything was so beautifully appointed.

I don’t like to write poor reviews, especially to small independents, but my poor experience with this Hotel means that I feel I should warn anyone booking to stay at the Lake Placid Lodge Prior to booking a room you will be advised the room may be cancellable 14 or 30 days before the scheduled date. No other information is given. In my case I cancelled within 24 hours, for a booking still nearly three months away. I was only advised that there is a $100 admin for cancelling when I received my confirmation email AFTER I had booked! This policy is completely hidden in the website, they had to tell me where to look. It certainly wasn’t clear when I booked. In my case the charge was not waived even though I pretty well cancelled immediately, due to unforeseen circumstance. Please note I did not stay at the hotel merely suffered their dubious practice!

Five star experience! Great staff, great cabin, great food, great property. Cannot say enough good things about this place. Highly recommend especially for a couples getaway. Hotel does a great job showing you nearby trails and things to do in the area.

If you’re looking for a luxurious (five-star accommodations, service, and amenities), yet casual and intimate travel experience, I highly recommend booking with the Lake Placid Lodge. It’s a truly remarkable resort and an asset to the Adirondack Park. If it’s your first time traveling to Lake Placid, it’s important to understand that Lake Placid “lake” and Lake Placid “village” offer two different experiences. The village of Lake Placid, though idyllic and rich in history (host to the 1932 and 1980 Winter Olympics), is a bit touristy. Lake Placid “lake” is quiet, serene, breathtakingly beautiful, and exclusive. The shoreline is populated by just under 250 private “camps.” Most of these magnificent homes were built well over a century ago. There is only one hotel on Lake Placid “lake,” and that is the Lake Placid Lodge. The team at the Lake Placid Lodge is top notch. You can expect to be greeted by name. Guest’s needs are anticipated well in advance. The resort’s amenities and restaurants are only accessible to hotel guests which creates a low guest-to-team member ratio. As a result, there is always someone readily available to assist. A huge thank you to Cory, Gail, Michael, Kara, Rob, and all the other team members we’ve had the pleasure of meeting. We greatly appreciate your hospitality and kindness. Accommodations are special. I most recently stayed in the “Loon Suite” which features two wood burning fireplaces, a soaker tub, feather mattress, private patio, and incredible views out to Lake Placid. The hotel itself is beautifully maintained and furnished with unique handmade pieces by local artisans and an impressive collection of fine art. Both Maggie’s Pub and Artisans (onsite dining) are excellent. Activities unique to the area and season are offered to resort guests. During the winter months, I’ve enjoyed snowshoeing and cross-country skiing at the lodge. Most recently, I went on a tour of Lake Placid “lake” in the lodge’s incredible 38-foot custom Hacker Craft. That was a memorable experience. I also took advantage of afternoon swims in the pristine lake and kayaking along the west shore. The Lake Placid Lodge is without a doubt one of my favorite places to stay. I’m counting down the days until my next visit!

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.
