Just finished a weeklong stay and had a wonderful time. Room was spotless and well maintained, as was the laundry facility. Being a fisherman, I hit the dock every morning, but first stopping at the office for a complementary coffee and baked good of the day. The motel offers guests kayak and canoe usage free of charge, with larger boat rentals available at very reasonable rates. The proprietors, Rick and Chris, are genuinely friendly and will bend over backward to provide you with anything you need (within reason). Gas grills and firepits are available, with firewood available at very reasonable prices. Took advantage of the chairs and picnic areas, both motel and lakeside, to enjoy the tranquil evenings and chat with the neighbors. Having Summered in the area for years in my youth, I try to get back every year or two. And when I do, the Oxbow is my motel of choice. For a genuine Adirondack experience, it provides everything and lacks nothing.

We stayed in one of their efficiency units-- which had a small kitchen stocked with dishes, cutlery, pots and pans-- there's also a BBQ available if you want to grill something. When we stayed there back in August, there was a little farm vegetable and fruit stand in front of their place--which was terrific, because we were able to get fresh veggies and fruits to have for with our meals. We also rented a canoe and a kayak to spend time in the evening and morning on the beautiful lake watching and listening to the loons. Additionally, there's fire wood for sale if you just want to sit by the fire pit in the evening while gazing at the stars. We highly recommend this lovely place.

After 42 miles on the trail individuals in the group had some equipment issues that needed immediate attention before committing to the next 45 mile section of trail. We were not anticipating staying in Piseco but it was a must. We approached this picturesque historical Adirondack property (not far from Piseco Bob's and the NPT trailhead) after 4 days on the trail... without a shower... to inquire about rooms to sort our issues in a dry place. We smelled like a gang of wet bears that just emerged from hibernation... wandering a hot landfill for food; absolutely repulsive. The inn keeper, Jen, is very accommodating to hikers. She was able to rent us 3 rooms (cheaper than any mainstream hotel ...anywhere on the planet), offered us hot coffee, and assisted us in finding laundry services to clean our heavily punished clothing. We were also invited to the $12 breakfast buffet and told to make ourselves at home while on the property (kayaks, beach, porch, etc). Jen and her staff are amazing humans and infinitely accommodating. They are truly the unsung trail angels of the NPT.

Best lake view. Last time here this room had a kitchenette. Not now. With the limited time of restaurants being open, I highly recommend getting a smokeless grill or similar.

Beach is nice and clean, they have a couple canoes on site for renting. Summer music concerts about 50 yards away, nice big fire pit. I will be returning and as long as you're not expecting the Hilton, you'll be happy.

The lobby is very rustic and comfortable with couches by a fireplace. The rooms are basic but comfortable. During my 3 day stay I did not have any issues and slept well. Breakfast is included and very standard - coffee from a machine, cereal and bagels, along with a waffle machine. In the area this is a great lodging option. We were traveling for work and our rate was very affordable as a result. The staff was nice and helpful when we had questions.

The lobby is nicely decorated and has some seating. The hotel is two levels, but there is no elevator so request a room on the lower level if you have mobility concerns. The room was pretty sparse but clean as I mentioned before. A small tv, microwave and fridge were provided. The bedding could be better. Instead of a warm comforter, there's little more than a thin blanket given to sleep with. There's an extra blanket in the dresser if needed. Our room faced the back of the property which was quiet. Our friend's room faced the parking lot and they could hear people drinking and talking outside until 3AM. The continental breakfast provided is good enough if you need a quick morning bite. Though if you want a full breakfast, go to the Center St diner, about a 5 min drive from the hotel. They don't have online booking so you have to call up and relay all of your information over the phone to book. They take a one night deposit at the time of booking. The onsite restaurant called Boondocks is pretty large and had some good food. Your room comes with a free drink token for Boondocks. They are open until 12AM. Overall, this was a decent stay in the town. I believe it may be the only hotel around.

Great in the summer too!…read more Went with my mother and girlfriend for a traditional Adirondack getaway and Lapland did not disappoint. In the summer this place is heaven to anyone who enjoys the outdoors and relaxing. Clean rooms, really clean. The homes or "Tupa's" are very comfortable and home like, although I guarantee you won't be spending much time inside. You can use any of Lapland's amenities such as kayaks, canoes, rowboats, mountain bikes etc - just bring your key to the lake and choose from their good selection.. I went fishing in the lake and caught a couple largemouth (released them back for you too) the lake is not overly large but is fun to explore all of the coves and shoreline. Not to mention swimming and sun bathing on a hot day, I suppose that goes without saying ! If you want a get away to roast marshmallows and have a relaxing stay, try Lapland lake instead of herding with the masses to lake George!

The Inn also provided a Continental Breakfast, and the best thing ever for a morning, a Kureg coffee maker with a selection of various coffees. The host was amazing, showing us the rooms and describing anything we might need to know. The place is Amazing and I suggest a stay when ever you're in the area.
