I have been staying at the Balsam since 2000 or 2001. The rooms are spacious, even with my toddler's pack n play in the room!

The Balsams offered us the total Lake George experience. Its rustic setting and spacious and spotless cabins truly keep us coming back year after year. George and Suzanne make you feel like family.
