No frills, but we didn't want for anything either and everyone who worked there was pleasant.

Basically the only bar in town, Melba's attracts all the locals, making it an amazing location for people watching. Walking in the first two things that I noticed were 1) I I was perfectly dressed in my jean shorts and UMass sweatshirt, falling somewhere in the middle of the sprectrum, between men in t-shirts with no sleeves and 50-70 year old women in beedazled tanks 2) loud and awesome country music was pouring out from the back of the bar. Plopping ourselves down on high top chairs in front of the stage, we sat and watched as a massive man (we're talking Paul Bunnion) in full country gear belted out request after request. On the dance floor we got to see line dancing, slow dancing, and older people dancing inappropriately to slow songs.....it was quite the experience. The only reason Melba's loses a star is because of the women's bath room: 2 toilets, no stalls, no lock. But, drinks are cheap and the atmosphere is unique, so if you have a good girl friend to stand outside the restroom door, arms crossed, body guard style, definitely head up to Melba Mae's.

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.

I searched for almost 3 weeks for a place that allowed dogs near Lake George and honestly could not find much which was surprising. I found a few places that allowed dogs but they had so many rules and regulations if wasn't worth the hassle. Then I finally found Hide-A-Way! From the moment I called them to make a reservation it was so easy and everyone I dealt with was SO helpful and friendly. I booked the reservation with Pete. He was amazing. Made the process so simple. I put down a $100 dollar deposit and they give you the option to either pay the remaining balance when you check in or send a check. We decided to just pay the rest when we got there. My friends and I rented the SummerHaven cottage for one night. It was $283 for one night during "off season." That price includes the pet fee as well. (The pet fee is $25 per pet, per night). We had 2 dogs that stayed with us. Honestly, it's not a bad price and it was SO WORTH IT. We checked in with Kelly and she was a doll and sooo easy to get along with! The SummerHaven cottage is SO NICE. When you walk in there is a cute living room with a tv, pull out sofa bed and rocking chair. If you go to the left there's a small room with a bunk bed. The bathroom is huge. There's a full kitchen with a big refrigerator, stove, microwave, Keurig, and dishes. The master bedroom is in the very back of the cottage with a HUGE king size bed and huge windows overlooking the road + lake. When we arrived me grabbed the kayaks (which you have unlimited use of with no extra charge) and headed out on the lake! The lake is a decent size and is pretty clean. We had a blast. After hanging out on the lake all day we went to the pavilion and played ping pong and volleyball!! They also have a jungle gym on the property for young kids. At night we had a huge bonfire (the SummerHaven cottage includes your own personal grill, bonfire pit, outdoor patio set with chairs, and a picnic table). You can also purchase firewood up at the office!! All in all, my friends and I will be making a few more trips up here this summer! We're going to do an annual camping trip here from now on. We had a blast! Thanks for everything Kelly!!!

Heads up not every cabin has a lake view, but why do you want to sit in your cabin all day anyway? Walk for 5 seconds and there's your view! Note: if you're the type that typically "speaks to the manager" over every tiny little thing that doesn't adhere to your standards of modern trappings, go stay at a Hilton. If you don't care that it's not the most up to date place and has a little character, you'll love it.

The…read morekastners is definitely a motel that's worth the 15 minute drive away because it's peaceful , secluded , beautifully simple , and cheap . I stayed with a friend in a small little cottage for about 75. It has the basics , queen bed , TV, bathroom, wifi , and air conditioning. Doesn't seem like much but for what you get the price isn't bad. What's sets this apart is that this motel , like others nearby , is connected to a small lake which gives a fantastic view that makes it worth while . They also include pattleboats and canoes so u can ride on the river and even go fishing . They have basketball courts, table tennis, and even grills outside that makes this feel like it's a small community in which you live . You can go to resorts that have this and pay a couple hundred at least ... But if you want something simple and peaceful , this will give you everything you need and then some, worth every penny!
