This is a first class, 5 star resort in EVERY sense. The main hotel sits on a hill above Lake George, & the view from the back terrace of the lake & of the Adirondack Mts. is absolutely spectacular. The style of the hotel is a combination of old fashioned elegance w/ a bit of woodsy & nautical touches added.

The amenities are terrific (incl. FREE rides on the resort's large boat); there are numerous activities available (incl.stuff for kids), & the food is beyond compare.

Above all this, though, is the service - the staff at the The Sagamore is very friendly, extremely professional, VERY helpful, & they are all over the place - management does not skimp on hiring more than enough people to do all the jobs that there are to perform, & you never have to wait to find someone to help you. We experienced a young man literally RUNNING to get a golf cart to give us a ride down the hill to the dock area (as some of our party couldn't walk that far); the young lady at The Emporium gift shop saved a Sun. NY Times for me two days ahead of time, & literally handed it to me right as I walked up to the counter; & the front desk had envelopes & stamps, & offered to mail our items FOR us.

The Sagamore is not inexpensive, but in my view, it's worth every penny.
