I highly agree with the positive reviews on this page. In particular, the older ones, "Good place to stay", "A great home away from home", "A great casual get-away place", and "Not bad for the price". I feel that the negative reviews are extremely biased propaganda, and frankly find them to be quite humorous. Frankly, some are quite immature, I'm... More

I expected this place to be an amazing stay, as stated on their website. Definitely, not. The owners, are rude and unappreciative. Fake smiles, and the feeling of they just dont care. I've been there twice, the first time I was there I knew I didnt want to go back but all the other hotels were booked so I guess... More

If you expect something like water pools, restaurants nearby or entertainment you have to look for hotels somewhere in Lake Placid. Red Top Inn is for people who like wilderness, fishing, and all things around it. First of all it is a motel, not a hotel. This is the right place where you want to stay for a couple of... More

this motel is in middle of nowhere, there no free row boats as advertised on the website, there is no beach, and the motel itself accross the busy highway from the lake. the rooms are dark, furniture is from a half a century ago, and overall impression is very depressing. not a place to spend a summer weekend.

I have been planning a trip in August/September 2011 (from Australia) and found Tupper Lake while researching New York State. I sent an email with a reservation request to Red Top Inn as well as a question about obtaining a guide for fishing the lake. No response! I sent another email 3 weeks later; tried to call them on the... More

This Is a 50's motel that really hasn't been updated since then. Thats really the story with the whole adirondack park, though. Othe than the Miorror Lake Inn, a Courtyard and one or two other hotels in Lake Placid, its pretty ahrd to find a nice place to stay in the Park. Anyway, this place is NOT a nice place... More

We stayed one night at the Red Top in the upper level motel room. Its a typical motel, good for a couple of nights while visiting the Adirondacks. The room was clean if somewhat outdated. Unfortunately, the beds and pillows were hard and uncomfortable and should be replaced. Other than that, the room was fine. But the views of Tupper... More

My former girlfriend and I stayed here twice on winter nordic skiing trips. We had a room with kitchen for $50. The room was plenty large and clean. The beds were large and comfortable. The best thing (aside from the price) was the kitchen, which was very well stocked with decent quality utensils. Being able to easily cook meals was... More

We stayed in cabin #16 and it was perfect for us and the price was a great value($55 but that price may change depending on the season) It was very laid back and casual. Loved the front porch with the view of Tupper Lake - beautiful sunsets. There was a new refrig & microwave along with comfortable furniture. There was... More

It's not The Ritz but it is clean and comfortable. We traveled with friends and all enjoyed our stay. Friendly staff, nightly campfires on the beach, great views are the pluses. No on-site restaurant (several within a short drive), sometimes have to remind owners to put out firewood, road between rooms and beach area would be the minuses. Several rooms... More
