Lake George Concierge Hotel

Has anyone gone to the Sagamore in Lake George, NY? We are sending our son and his wife there for a couple of days this month. We booked them a Lodge Suite and wonder how the place is. Any input on this big hotel in NY??

We have been to the Sagamore quite a few times, once using points. It is a great resort with lots to do. The Fall should be an especially beautiful time to visit there. The Lodge suites are bigger than the main hotel rooms but are a little bit more out of the way in terms of getting to the health spa, restaurants and/or swimming pool. The golf course is spectacular.

Thanks HBC I sent a copy of your post to my DDIL. I told her to think about what you said --about being close to pools/restaurants/ spa in the resort hotel itself. I think I can change the ressie if she wants more proximity to the things that make the resort great. ( personally I would still opt for the larger suite rooms but of course this is up to them)

Some food for thought-you may have to pay the fee to make a reservation change and if there are points differences, they may not be able to go back into your account without restrictions.

I have changed room types on a reservation before for the concierge collection and never had an additional charge. Is this new??

Hi,

We just got back from there on a family vacation (week in August). Resort was beautiful and a great location. The lodge suites were very nice. Enough room for 4 people, even a fireplace.

Lake George was very nice. I would definitely go back there again. Took a day trip up to Lake Placid. Got directions from concierge desk (used them alot, great help for everything).

The only downside was the 18% service charge added onto everything from food to drinks to recreations. Along with 7.25% state sales tax, it was extremely expensive. We ate alot more off the resort then on the resort due to their service charge.

But all in all, great vacation. Enjoy.

Not sure, I thought if you made any changes they charge you for it as a new reservation.

No need to check for this trip. The kids are very happy with the
suite reservation. I was just curious if MS changed their polices.
Thanks,
