So nice to be right by the lake! And just a quick drive to restaurants and town. The property is clean and pleasant, but our only complaint was that our room had mosquitoes inside. After some aggressive towel swatting, everything was fine though. I would return just because of the location, the balcony had a nice view and you literally walk right on to the beach from the parking lot.

Not the best, but ok

The hotel is acceptable for a one night stay. The first room we were given was bad (not the bed size we reserved and stains on the carpet and looked well worn). Upon our request, we got the size room we reserved on the upstairs and it was in better condition. Still, light shown in through the window shade from a lightbulb outside our door and kept us up. The area has a lot of smokers outside of the rooms. A few hours after checking in, I realized that I did not get my credit card back from the office after they asked for my DL and card. Fortunately, the office was still there and had the card (so lucky I realized it before they closed for the evening as we were leaving early the next morning before they opened again)! I would not stay here again, but it may be ok for others.

Lakefront views and a private beach

She has some years on her, but the sheets were clean and fresh, the kitchenette is a nice perk, and you can't beat the location. Good staff. Quiet rooms. Very much enjoyed our stay. Would return.

Great for an overnight

The price was right, and it is updated. Don't expect a palace, but for the price it worked great. The guy at the front desk was super friendly and helpful. It's right on the beach, so you can walk right out on it anytime. The room was updated a bit, and it seems they did they best given what seemed like a tight construction budget. We would stay here again for sure.

Everything was fine. Bathroom fixtures were a bit dated, but everything worked, and was clean. Bed was comfortable. The lakefront location was nice, sat out in front of the room for a while enjoying the evening breeze and listening to the waves.

Came from Canada to enjoy the 4th of July. Was a great location: close to the Plattsburgh city beach and 10 minutes from restaurants/ shopping center. 50 second walk to the McDonalds (convenient for late night). Rooms were clean (especially the corner room with a window overlooking the private beach). Service was great!,Bob was very friendly and helpful. Already recommended to our family & friends and will definitely be coming back. Bonus: were able to watch the 4th of July fireworks from the comfort of our private beach

Check in was super easy so was check out (didn’t even have to interact to check out just a key drop.) The room was really nice almost set up like a mini apartment more than the average hotel room. The private beach was right at the end of building easy access and nice to spend a few minutes in the sun taking in the view I caught the sunset and sunrise on the little beach both were beautiful for such an affordable room price. My only complaint was the bed felt obnoxiously high I’m about 5’2 and it was past my hips standing beside it I had to get a bit of run jump to get in it
