We stayed at Great Pines Resort for 5 nights in July. Our room, a family suite with bunk beds, was in the upstairs of the main lodge. The lodge is so cozy, comfortable, clean. The breakfast nook was stocked, including bagels with cream cheese, ...
cereals, hot coffee, milk + creamers, plates + utensils. There is also a convenient water bottle refill station + ice machine. We checked everything off on our bucket list, including a campfire with s’mores, fishing off the dock, kayaking. We also rented a pontoon boat and docked it at the resort for the week and had no trouble with finding space to dock. The Resort was ready with all the things you need during your stay. We hope to return soon!

We stay there often. It is such a great place as the staff is friendly and helpful. The breakfast and food is awesome for the morning grab and go. Highly recommend Great Pines.

This is a lovely lodge with wood paneling in large rooms that gives them a cozy feel. We heard the loons at night with the back windows open, so overall a nice stay.
There are just a few things could make it a bigger hit. It would be helpful to...
have electrical outlets near the beds. Another small desk or dresser or nightstand, some sort of flat surface for laying out bags and toiletries. The one small desk just wasn’t enough. “Breakfast” was pretty wimpy, but the coffee was good.

What a warm wintery location destination for snowmobile riders and people who enjoy simple pleasures and views. The lake views out the rooms is fantastic. They ride on the lake! The lodge has no staff but it is warm and welcoming with self ser...
ve amenities. However, the fireplace had no fire in the nicely decorated lounge with no staff on a 10 degree day. Rooms are good, comfy bed, clean but nothing over the top. They do have a skeleton crew running the restaurant and bar with tvs. It is pretty much a great stop off the trail and a good place to stay.

It was snowmobiling season so it is NOT quiet. Great views across 4th lake. Rooms are dilapidated, but mostly clean. Water in the room was not potable due to s treatment issue. Toilet leaked from a suspected bad wax ring/seal and the jacuzzi t...
ub was filthy. We bought clorox and bleached it four times and still a ton of sticky brown scum came through. Yuck. Its the Adirondacks though. Nobody has money for maintenance and there is a serious shortage of help. The on-site tavern was good.
