They are not in the main hotel building but a short walk from it (and short walk to the pool). Sometimes feels like a trek going back and forth since it's a bit uphill one direction but it's ok. We LOVE their outdoor pool with a beautiful lake view behind it. We've also been in the indoor pool; nice option if it's raining or a cooler day. At times the pool can be relaxing if you find a good spot but other times a lot of kids. Our fave part of the hotel is the ice cream at 3:30 out on the lawn- we don't miss it! Their rec center is INSANE- a kids dream! Mini golf, baseball, video games, ping pong, rock climbing etc along with their outdoor facilities like pickleball and tennis. Never tried out the little movie theater or their art workshop (the stuffing animals one ahh!!) but such a cute idea. Everything in our townhouse was nice and spacious- loved the balcony especially facing the lake and hearing/watching the boaters (or deer!) go by. Oh also love the standard boat ride included that gives a tour of the lake and my daughter got to have her first time on a boat experience so she was pumped- just a nice change of viewpoint since we stayed at resort most of the time. I wish the restaurants were more family friendly at least with pricing.. or casual eateries..but we love a few of the places in Bolton landing just a short drive away so that's fine too (BEAR's CUP for a bear claw anyone?? I had to!). Just nice to walk somewhere if possible. Also was disappointed with their customer service two summers ago when my FIL needed to cancel the fine print was a little wacky- but we were able to move the date to reschedule without losing $ at least. Hopefully this will be a fam fave for years to come!

I've heard about The Sagamore Resort for years and was excited to finally experience it this past…read moreweekend. Everyone I mentioned it to raved about how wonderful it is, so we arrived with high expectations and lots of anticipation. At check-in we were given a list of activities, which all looked fun -- though we later learned most didn't begin until the following day. Not a big issue, just something to be aware of if you're arriving for a short stay. We stayed in the Hermitage Lodge, and the layout of the room was actually very nice -- a downstairs kitchenette and small living area, with a beautiful loft upstairs featuring a king bed. The only drawback was having just one bathroom. Unfortunately, shortly after arriving, we noticed several ants -- first on the bed in the loft, then in the bathroom, and later in other areas of the room. Given the cold winter weather, it was surprising. We chose to mention it to the front desk the next day. They kindly offered to move us and provided a $70 credit, which we appreciated. Since we only had one night left, we decided not to relocate. At the room rate, we had hoped for a bit more in terms of condition upon arrival. We enjoyed lunch at Caldwell's and dinner at Mr. Brown's Pub, and later at La Bella Vita -- all pleasant experiences (I've reviewed those separately). The property itself is truly beautiful. In the winter, however, many of the scheduled activities and amenities seemed primarily geared toward families with young children. That's perfectly fine -- I've raised two boys, I get it -- but it wasn't quite the "grand" weekend experience we had envisioned. I can absolutely imagine that in the summer, with the stunning views of Lake George and the full range of offerings, this resort feels magical. In the winter, while still lovely, it didn't fully match our expectations for the price point. Overall, it's a beautiful property with kind staff and great dining -- just perhaps better suited to families or a summertime stay.

Multiple options are available for 4-star quality dining, without forgetting the kiddie's palates. Service from every staff member across our visits has been top-notch. Given the availability of other lakeside venues, the Sagamore, impresses your lakeside experience, at a level beyond its neighbors, and is priced to maintain its standing and attention to its patrons. Amazingly found that despite the variety of guests, young and old couples, families of all age groups, destination weddings, and corporate retreats; service was spot on and our experience was unaffected. We felt at ease, secure, and serenely enjoyable. Repeated visits unveil a homey charm on a comfortable scale. We've done both the lodges (lakefront, tree-lined views) and the main hotel (lakefront unobstructed views); looking forward to our return.

This hotel is fabulous!…read more First and foremost - it could not be better for small children. The lake area is in a shallow cove and my kids were literally able to run out for a few minutes and still be up to their knees. There are plenty of kayaks and paddle boats to take out, and a small sandy beach area for the kids to play. There's also a pool on the property, but the lake area was great so we never even went. Rooms are a little older, but they are clean and spacious. The property is pretty small, so everything is an easy walk. There's also plenty of parking onsite. The location is also prime in Bolton and it's just a two minute drive up to all the shops and restaurants. The owners were super sweet and friendly and helped us out a few times when we were locked out of our room. Overall, this is a really nice family run hotel in Bolton and the location on the lake can't be beat. There are definitely cosmetic upgrades that could be made, but like many other hotels in the area it's a little old school. Looking forward to coming back - we had a great time here.

We stayed at Dockside Manor. The property location was fantastic. It is just as depicted in the…read morepictures. We made good use of the fire pit, arcade and pool room, and of course the lake. If you're traveling with young children, you should know that there is no beach area where they can gradually go into the water. The stairs off the dock are the only way in, but our group of non swimming 3-5 year olds did fine with floaties. The only disappointing thing was that there was no shampoo or soap in the bathrooms. For the price of this home, I feel that this should be included. Also, you should know that there are no spices. If you're planning to cook in, which we did every night, you will need to bring your own spices, olive oil, etc. The kitchen is well stocked with pots, pans, crock pot, coffee maker and plenty of dishes. We had a wonderful week! There were 18 of us ranging from 1 to 88 and there was plenty of room.

Properties are beautiful and well appointed but they are notorious for after charges with claims. My recent stay I was not happy that they don't release the address until check in time especially when traveling 3 hours to get there. Overall, the unit was relatively clean, although I did find hair left in the shower and cobwebs in the bunk area. The hot tub had not been cleaned and, despite being covered, was full of leaves and bugs. The shower water pressure was extremely weak and noticeable cob webs throughout the home. Also, the bunk bed is listed as a king bed, which is inaccurate. Despite these issues, I was happy with my stay and was even considering booking one of their properties again. Several days after my stay I discovered an unexpected $500 charge on my credit card with absolutely no notice or warning. When I checked the app to find out what the charge was for, I found a message from the host simply stating: "stained linens throughout the rental." This accusation was both vague and unreasonable. We barely used the rental and only slept in one of the 3 beds and followed all check out rules to leave the unit spotless. To be charged $500 after the fact, without any prior communication, photos, evidence, or opportunity to discuss the issue, was extremely disappointing and has completely changed my opinion of this property management company. After contacting Vrbo to dispute the charge and multiple attempts to contact the property with no response. northern provided photo proof of alleged soiled linens. 1. A kitchen towel/rag that had signs of food on it (washable), 2. A pillow case with a slight soiled spot (washable) and 3. A towel that had dirt marks on it (washable). All issues were normal use and could be washed and definitely did not result in the need to replace: as requested by northern to the extent of 1. 2 pillow shams (only one was soiled) 2. a new comforter which they had no proof of any damage to 3. New dish towel 4. 6 full sets of towels (only one set was even used - they provided 3 total - 1 set for each bed and the unused ones remained folded in place where they were placed by northern) Potential guests should be aware of the possibility of additional charges, inaccurate bed sizes and most important significant post-stay charges and proceed with caution. Inspect every inch upon arrival and before departure and take photos and videos. Or even better. Don't stay at their properties at all.

We stayed here because we were looking for an affordable place in the Lake George area so we could raft in the Adirondacks, dine, and party in Lake George. We had a party of 9. The accommodation we stayed in was a log cabin with 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, living room, and kitchen. Pros: - Price is right! Can't beat the value. 9 of us stayed there comfortably for 2 nights for $45 each. - The place is on Lake Trout and they have canoes, kayaks, and paddle boats to use. Just go up to the dock, take one, and plop it in the water. Cons: - A bit rundown. - "Stocked" kitchen wasn't really stocked at all. - Everything inside the place was from the 60's. Overall, we enjoyed our time.
