Top Saranac Lake Hotel Reviews

High Peaks Resort

High Peaks Resort

10/10 Excellent
"The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars for each category is bc there are 3 properties at the high peaks resort. 2/3 are beautiful!! I had zero complaints. We stayed in the water front collection, steps To mirror lake from our patio. gorgeous view, beautiful spacious newly remodeled room and bathroom. Very comfortable beds. The outdoor pool and beach area were immaculate. Staff was very friendly and helpful. The indoor pool and hot tub in the main resort were wonderful. The restaurant in the main resort was wonderful. The 3rd property is called The Lake House and it was disgusting! There was no staff to work it. There was a bar inside that was closed the entire time, the pool hot tub and “recreation area” was decrepit, chipping, and filthy. The entire building stank like a men’s locker room. I couldn’t believe it was associated with the other two properties bc the differences were night and day. So in short- def book a stay with the high peaks report but DO NOT stay in the Lake House."

8/10 Good
"Clean but very basic. Very small bathroom. Chose this for the lake side location and inexpensive rate. It was sufficient, and clean, and across the street from a restaurant. Didn't need fancy, just a place to sleep."
