Hear From Our Guests

My wife and I had a wonderful weekend at the Boathouse. Staff was wonderful. Interior was clean and it was located at a beautiful spot in Lake George. Joe actually took us out on his boat (for small fee) and gave historical views up and down the lake. Very relaxing time.

Most wonderful inn we ever stayed at, Joe and Patty were very accommodating and hospitable. Laurie the made also was very accommodating making sure we had everything we needed. The view was beautiful. The boat ride narrated by Joe was exceptional. Fabulous place.?

Our first stay with Patty and Joe. What a wonderful place! Gorgeous location and spotlessly clean!! Great place to unwind and regroup. Easy to social distance, but it doesn’t feel like you are. We will be back!

What a special place this is – I just returned home from a few restful days – I was greeted by such warmth and spirit by Joe, Patti and Laura. I was there as a single guest and I always felt part of the place. Thank you for such a wonderful stay – I’ll be back for sure!

Joann DiStefano

June 2019 and stayed at the Boathouse as part of out trip from the UK. We were looking for somewhere special in the middle of our travels to celebrate our wedding anniversary and our trip organiser told us we wouldn’t find anywhere more idyllic than the Boathouse. My goodness, how right she was! One of the most beautiful rooms ever, wonderful reception from Laura, the most superb scenery, almost too much to do in the few days we stayed there, and then, on our anniversary itself, the famous boat ride with Joe. It really was worth every penny and, if it’s ever humanly possible, we’ll be back!
