I enjoyed my stay at the Lake House with its spacious rooms and amazing views of Mirror Lake. However, the service left something to be desired, particularly with check-in and staff availability.

I had a lovely stay at the Lake House with stunning views of Mirror Lake and great access to outdoor activities. The spacious room allowed my family to relax, and we enjoyed kayaking and lounging by the pool. However, I found the dining options to be less than ideal and the pricing on the higher side. Overall, it was a solid place to unwind, but there is definitely room for improvement in some areas.

I had high hopes for my stay at the Lake House in Lake Placid, especially after hearing about its beautiful views and spacious rooms. While the scenery was indeed stunning, the overall experience fell short due to some cleanliness and maintenance issues. The room was more cramped than I anticipated for the price I paid, and the outdated bathroom really took away from the comfort of my stay. If you're on a budget, it might be worth considering your options before booking here.
