We stayed at this property, with 6 women (ages 43-71), for a 60th birthday wknd. The property is beautiful, well decorated, beds comfortable, booking/communication/check in easy. However, the kitchen is minimally equipped, as are the paper products, dish/bath soaps. We tried using Instacart, for groceries, from Hannovers & it never got delivered! The advertised pool (located across the lake at the Crown Plaza) was a disaster, as you have to share the indoor pool/hot tub with hotel guests. We went over to use the hot tub & it was spilling over with people, as was the pool. It looked like a scene from Titantic, with people floudering around in the water, on top of each other. Additionally, there is only 1 tv on the property, which is in family room. Finally, our biggest complaint is the noise. The walls are paper thin, both inside the suite & the ones connecting to the other suites. Unfortunate for us, as the people next door, were constantly complaining about the noise, calling the property manager & banging on our shared wall. While we were not overly loud, it WAS a holiday wknd & NOONE goes to Lake Placid OR PAYS, as much as we did, to go & have to be quiet by 11p. Unbeknownst to us, in the house guide & undisclosed prior, there was a blurp about being quiet after 9p. This caused a great deal of issues with our group, specifically in curtailing a very special celebration. I hated to write this, but given that my family HAS a property on VRBO (similarly priced) in FL, ON THE BEACH, AND knowing what we were advised to provide, this property fell a little short. Bottom line, if you plan to stay in & enjoy the beautiful lake, plan to be quiet, bring any cooking equip you definitely need, as well as extra paper products, dish soaps & IF someone wants to watch TV , hope they like the same TV channel as everyone in the group.
