This is the reincarnation of JP Trains and Hobbies formerly located in Latham, NY. I came here on…read morevacation and was pleasantly surprised with the shop. The good: compared to the old store, it is well lit, the aisles are wider, and it is easier to find things. The hours are probably more regular as well. The bad: the inventory is the same as the previous store, but with even less O, S, and G scales. So, if you are an N or HO modeler you will find this store is nearly the same as the previous one. However, if you model in some of the less-popular scales you won't find much here aside from some scratchbuilding supplies. The prices seemed reasonable. Still... the area neads hobby shops, and I will do what I can to support this one. Check it out!

As soon as we first passed this store, we knew, we had to find ourselves in Live Love Laugh at some…read morepoint on our journey to Lake George. Something about that front display drew us towards that beautiful little shop. Unfortunately, after camping outside the store before it opened so we'd be first in line, we learned that it was closed, meaning we'd be barred from the happiness it has to offer. This was a major blow to morale, and nearly ruined the trip entirely. To fill the lacuna left by Live Love Laugh's absence, we went to every other store on the strip. We were completely unaware of the trauma we were about to endure. Each store was more and more scarring; I have never seen more offensive graphic t-shirts in my life. Abhorrent is the only word that comes to mind and we are not yet healed from the deceptively violating words that we read. None of us will ever be the same, and we author this Yelp review to help promote the safety of others. The energy surrounding these tourist traps is dangerous, but soul-shattering inside. We were all hoping that by the time we passed Live Love Laugh on our way out of Lake George that it would indeed be open and we would have one last shot at redemption. Unfortunately, the void in our souls remains deprived of the healing nature of living, loving, or laughing. Regardless, we still absolutely adore this store, and are salivating at the thought of being able to get into the store eventually. We know that what awaits inside will allow us to blossom into our full potential. With love, the crew :)

Once I found a sweatshirt I liked, I took it off the hanger to try on and a woman immediately ran next to me to make sure I wasn't stealing (she pretended to organize clothes next to me), it was extremely obvious she thought I was stealing that I felt uncomfortable and left. Really gross way to treat customers and I was well dressed, I cannot imagine how they would have acted had I dressed more casually. The store needs to modify how they treat customers.

You can check out the games for a measly $5, much like one would check out DVDs (RIP Blockbuster) or library books even. Or even better: you can play the games all located in the back shelf for free - right in the vicinity - which can be great if you got some free time on your hands on a lazy Sunday. Right after having brunch at the Diner, we stopped by here and played several rounds of Exploding Kittens. Highly recommend that game. Many other games also to try out. The owner was so friendly; when we walked in, he asked us if it was our first time and immediately showed us the free games in the back to play. My only complaint is that there is a faint smell that I can only know too well: boy smell. It's not the most pleasant smell, but I suppose it could also be worse. I feel like the business could use an air freshener. Maybe I'm just fussy. Nevertheless, this is still a good spot to have fun!

The paintball fields are a lot of fun. In the woods there is a "castle" with walls all around it and a second floor. There are several barricades to hide behind and the grounds are well kept. There is also a speed ball area for faster games. All these areas were bug free too, I couldn't believe it! They have a refreshment cafe for food, snacks, and drinks which are very reasonably priced. And lastly I just want to say thanks to the guys who play there regularly (Tom Krutz & sniper). You guys and everyone playing were great! You took the time to explain the games, safety issues, and went out of your way to really make the day fun for the kids and I. We can't thank everyone enough. It was a great day, we started at 11am and didn't leave til almost 4pm. Had a blast! Thanks to everyone that played for making it such a great experience. Kids and adults of all ages will have fun!!!!
