We loved most everything about this place. From the historical building, to our room (The Baker Mountain Room), to the added touch of Starbucks & Dunkin Donuts K-cups & a Keurig in the front room 24/7. John, the caretaker, is amazing. He helped us out when our car got stuck and he is a great host. We visit a relative in Saranac twice a year and we definitely plan to stay there again.

Easy stay. Large room, easily accessible, good instructions! The one item is the we couldn’t open the window (AC on it) so the room got stuffy. Otherwise, great place and would come again!

Safe, Cozy, and Snow-Ready – Highly Recommended!

Had a wonderful stay! The host was great—friendly, responsive, and ensured everything was perfect. The place was clean, cozy, and well-maintained. It also handled heavy snow well, making it a safe and comfortable stay even in harsh weather. Would definitely recommend and stay again!

Quaint? Yes. History? Yes. Enthusiastic tourists? Yes. Wi-fi? Yes More affordable than other choices? Yes Public restrooms, no tv cable box in every rooms, not enough outlets (none around the bed for a lamp in 317). Old carpets. Basement clean but unattractive.

Totally what I expected. The property has a great story. Nothing fancy but I did not expect it to be and I did not want it to be. Super clean. Friendly staff. Low price. Felt very comfortable and secure. Will definitely go again and again.

Great alternative to a hotel. Sharing a bathroom was fine-never an issue. Clean and comfortable, affordable setting with interesting history. Not posh or luxury and would strongly recommend!!

In its previous life it was a tuberculosis sanitorium. Rooms are named for the mountains in the ADK. There is a property manager, John, on site, but check in is dependent on receiving an email with information about your room #, etc. I found the confusion of guests when they first arrive is calmed by guests who have already gone thru the process and help them understand how it works. Outdoor shoes are to be left in the main porch, and only indoor shoes are to be worn inside. Do not lose your key or lock yourself out of your room; there may be no one on site to help you. No one enters your room to empty trash or make beds or change out towels during your visit. The parking lot is rough, so it's best to unload your car at the door and then park. I opted to pay at the facility, however there isn't a way to pay there. They should remove that option on Expedia, because I am still trying to find a way to pay for my stay after I have departed. They have yard games and a pinball machine in the basement. They are located very close to the Adirondack Rail Trail, so it was a great place for us to be.

I was jaw dropped when I entered the room - where's the bathroom!! It's my mistake, I didn't read carefully when I booked. It's a nice and well reserved house, well maintained and managed. My feeling was I booked a hostel instead. Since I'm not young and although the shared bathroom was clean and not busy, I still need a private one. If you are someone like me, don't book this one.

Disliked: Amenities
If you want a reasonable room in a nice very old house, with zero service and nothing within walking distance, this is your place! Long after I had booked, the hotel informed me that I would receive a message from them at noon on the day of arrival, giving me my room number, as there were NO reception staff. When I got there at 4 pm, no message! Luckily, another guest had gone through this rigamarole and had finally unearthed a telephone to call. I rang the number and, with many apologies, I was given my room number! After I took my shoes off - not allowed inside - I got into the room. No dining facilities nor breakfast. But a common area for cooking, which I did not need. Too far out of time to walk to anywhere to eat. But the room is OK, clean and with all conveniences.
