Nice cabin. Great location. Only complaint is the bbq grill didn’t have propane. Was planning on using for dinner. Could have done a lil better job with the snow removal. Other than that great stay at a reasonable rate. And shovel the top balcony off. I know it’s cold but some people still like too enjoy them.

The location of the resort is stunning. The facilities were excellent : lots of boats, life jackets and sand toys. The staff worked hard to accommodate us and went above and beyond to make sure we had a great stay.

We stayed in the rustic cabin. Accommodations were good. I expected a real oven but the counter top convection oven served the purpose. Overall happy with everything.

6/10 Good

The townhouse itself was clean, however, there was laundry in washer, many insects on rugs, (which we vacuumed), and fireplace did not work
donna, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

This place needs very deep clearing it was dirt and sand on the floor spiders everywhere, bugs on the bed and sheets the bathroom sink was clogged, under the beds were disaster seemed like it wasn’t vacuumed for very long time

Beautiful spot on the lake

Beautiful spot on the lake! We stayed in a rustic cabin, which was fine for 2 nights. Parking was next to the cabin so very easy to unload the car. There are kayaks and canoes for guests to use, as well as life jackets available.
holly, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great Adirondack retreat!

We stayed here for a family vacation and the place was great! I’m sure it’s different in the summer, and definitely a winter oasis. The only downsize was there wasn’t hot water in the shower downstairs it was warm but not scorching your skin hot like my husband likes! the basement where the two bedrooms were was cold but once you put on the space heaters they were cozy. The upstairs king room was “quite the room” and we called it all weekend. Such an Adirondack retreat. We’d love to go back!
Eugene, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great place to stay with an amazing view. Could use some better cleaning practices. Cobwebs, leftover lipstick on a wine glass, ect. Otherwise great place to stay and only 15 from lake placid.
Bill, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Our stay at Ampersand Bay was amazing - it was a special pleasure to have such a well tended beach area, with a stocked fire pit for an evening fire and access to canoes, kayaks and paddle boards whenever we wanted to use the water. The quiet and beautiful view were amazing. The cabin was spotlessly clean and well equipped except - no kettle or coffee maker! That was the only thing that was lacking.
