My friends and I stayed here for a weekend in Lake George. All in all, this is a beautiful property and the stay was everything we were looking for to have a weekend away. Even with the things I will mention below this was a nice stay for us. The entire inside was renovated. Nice beds/bedrooms, second kitchen area downstairs with pool-table, plenty of room in the living room, good bathrooms and an updated kitchen. There was plenty of space on the deck to hang out and sit. It was nice to have the firepit and the pool was refreshing. Wifi information was provided and easy to find on the table. This property is a bit secluded with only a couple neighbors around on a quiet street. Close to big grocery store and several gas stations very close.
Few notes about this property (mostly minor and only one serious). This property and the surrounding area have horrible cell phone service. You have to use wifi for calling and texting but the wifi works great in the property. This property was a bit far from places to order food, some friends had to drive into town to meet up with a pizza delivery guy (not the end of the world but something to note if you order out a lot). I’ve seen people comment about the pool being cold, I would say that is accurate, it was very cold. That said we were at the property when it was 90+ all weekend so we all thought it was great! The pool was very clean. I was surprised not to find any salt, pepper, coffee filters, paper towels, or Lysol wipes. Not that big a deal, but just be ready to buy everything you think you might need (side note: the house had extra soap/toiletries). Serious note,the property adjacent (13 Sweet Road) leaves their dogs outside tied to posts and they barked non-stop (and I mean literally without stopping to breath). To defend this property, this was a fraction of the time we spent outside.
Regretfully the communication from the owner was not great. I had messaged, called, texted multiple times leading up to the trip and only got two responses the day before when I asked to check in early and for the door code. I’ve seen the property owner mention they oversee a lot of properties so I can understand running around crazy. We received no check out instructions and nothing was posted in the VRBO portal. We didn’t necessarily need anything (the things above weren’t that tough for us to figure out or remedy) however if you are looking for a property owner that is very responsive, we didn’t experience that.THX!
