If you want a place to relax and enjoy nature but close to all the action in the area this is it. The views are spectacular and the beach pristine. Terrific staff. The owner,Bob, will make you feel really welcome and his dog Abbey is terrific.

My boyfriend and I were lucky enough to end up spending a night in Golden Sands in late August. Although our short stay was only supposed to be a stopover between montreal and New York it ended up being on of my favourite parts of the trip. We are both from Europe (the UK and Germany) so hadn't heard of... More

Like always, we are back again.. every time I come back, something new is done or updated. Nice new railings on the deck, new playground equipment for the kids, new benches on the dock. Bob, the owner of the establishment always does his best even in a hard economy to keep things fresh for his visitors. I brought my girlfriend... More

Bob, who owns and operates the Golden Sands Resort, was extremely helpful in guiding us to excellent restaurants, hiking trails--really, anything we asked about. My husband and I felt as if the motel staff worked around OUR routine--sleeping late, eating breakfast in the room, which was easy and convenient due to the refrigerator and table--so we felt very cosseted. The... More

This resort is in a great location on the lake and has a wonderful private beach which the kids spent all day at having a wonderful time. Like another poster stated this is not a 4-star hotel but was very clean and did not have any odd smells or odors. I traveled with my dog , but as you read... More

I decided for Golden Sands Resort for the reasonable prices and because is a little north from the hustle and bustle of the city. The motel is small but very clean and perfect for outdoor lovers. The access to the beach is perfect for kayaking. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Highly recomended

We love the Lake George region and come every year, but we never stayed on the lake before.....I will never stay off the lake again and the Golden Sands may just have some of the best views around. Great grounds and the private beach is a perfect place to spend the days. Truly the best part of our trip was... More

My family just returned from a three day stay at the Golden Sands and were very pleased with the facility. Not only was it remote enough to relax, it was close enough to town where we didn't feel isolated. Their private beach was great for reading and kids had a great time in the water, playing basketball and playing catch... More

I was disappointed with the room and the area they gave me to walk my dog in. It was very little. I travel with my pet and I've been other places that were more pet friendly. There was no volume control on the tv remote. It was missing. they put people with pets by the road and it's very noisy... More

Perhaps the choice of this guest's language for their complaint attests to their character? Golden Sands is nearly 'No Vacancy' all summer. We have a nearly 70% repeat guest base. Guests with pets are well advised of our 'pet policies.' It seems maybe it's time to eliminate allowing pets altogether, as it seems those travelling with pets expect their pets... More
