Living in New Jersey and working & travelling to New York City every day I really needed some R & R. Normally we fly out to an Island, this year we decided that we wanted to visit the Adirondacks, which for some reason I never thought of doing before as a vacation. Mike & I were pleasantly surprise as to... More

My wife and I had the opportuntiy to spend a couple of days at The Big Moose Inn recently and it was a welcome break from our busy schedules. The drive on Route 28 through the Adirondacks was scenic, tons of lakes. We found the Inn to be charming, with fantastic hosts in Mark and his wife Susan. They were... More

The setting, decor and over all experience we had was exactly what we expected from "reading" the info about this Inn. It If you are looking for a Hilton or Westin on the lake you are in the wrong spot. If you want something laid back, comfortable, perfectly situated with a lot of character then this is for you.

We rarely write reviews, but Mark and his family and staff deserve a huge thumbs up for being not only the perfect hosts, but for making us feel like we were part of the family. We arrived on a Friday and left on Sunday and yet we got more R&R than the usual full week of vacation. We hiked, kayaked,... More

We stayed her over the weekend using a Living Social deal- two nights in a lake view room w/ $50 dinner credit and picnic lunch for $270. I can't fault them on value, since I had the deal, but I don't think I would pay full price. Here's why: 1) yes, the inn is old and outdated, but for me... More

Thank you for your candid and detailed feedback. It was our intention to respond to this review immediately, however we decided it would be more prudent to implement changes and upgrades first and only then address your concerns. 1) In November 2012 we replaced our entire water filteration system. The new system has successfully removed the excessive iron in our... More

I just wanted to share the very nice experience we had dealing with the folks that run this quaint and scenic inn. We had stayed here in the past and really enjoyed ourselves, but several weeks ago, it was THEE hottest day/night of the year and electric storms knocked out the power to the inn.

Went there first when the parents of the current owners opened the place back in the 60's. Have been back many times since. It is a one-of-a-kind place with good food at reasonable prices and a wonderful view of the Lake.

We visited the Adirondacks the week of July 23rd. We had no reservations but were lucky enough to find an opening here after a long days ride. The staff was so welcoming and the food was excellent. We loved it so much we stayed two more nights and enjoyed riding the rodes with all the beautiful scenery during the day.... More

I booked a special occasion package for our anniversary weekend. After checking in, we went to our room (that had a lovely lake view) and found a cheese, cracker, and fruit plate, a bottle of wine, and a lovely flower arrangement! The hospitality and attentiveness of the owners and staff is exceptional. We both really enjoyed using the kayaks, canoe,... More
