What a great Valentine's getaway at the Lodge. We had drinks in the Speakeasy, which was fun, and our dinner was good. It's close to Lake Placid and Saranac Lake and we enjoyed the winter activities that were going on over the weekend. Will stay again!

We enjoyed our bucket list stay in the winter wonderland of the Aderondaks. We started with a romantic and beautiful sleigh ride around the snow covered trails to a fun and playful speakeasy experience followed by a delicious gourmet meal. Our stay in the cabin was a fairy tale. Beautiful view of Lake Clear, rocking chairs by the fire, luxurious bedding and a jacuzzi tub to relax in. It snowed during our visit which you can’t always count on! Kathy and her family make you feel very welcome with the freedom to enjoy their little piece of paradise. Definitely an experience that you will remember with a smile on your face.

We wanted to do something a bit different and try somewhere new. We ended up doing the beer tasting which included the history of beer. The selection was excellent and story that went along was fascinating. We then did the sleigh ride which in the Adirondack night was truly breathtaking. After finishing the sleigh we did the 1920s dinner which was fantastic. Food quality was truly of a home made quality with the love that only a labor of love could provide.

Talk about the perfect get away full of peace and tranquility! We stayed in the Sunset Pine suite and it was perfect. The rustic cabin was everything right down to the view out back of the lake. We did the sleigh ride and speakeasy dinner. I can't recommend that experience enough!! The whole family was so kind and personable. We can't wait to come back in the fall!

Review for Sleigh Ride & Speakeasy Dinner Experience:Our evening kicked off with this super romantic horse sleigh ride through the snowy wonderland at Lake Clear Lodge & Retreat. I mean, talk about setting the mood, right? Then, we hit up this cool hidden 1920s Speakeasy, adding a touch of mystery and a lot of fun. The place had the Adirondacks' biggest stash of craft beers and sustainable wines, so you know we had to check that out. Finally, we wrapped it all up with a delicious dinner – local flavors, cozy vibes, the whole deal. It was the perfect combo of romance, intrigue, and good eats in the heart of the Adirondacks. Such a chill and memorable night! The place is run by a wonderful and kind family, a real gem of an experience.Food & drinks: Delicious dinner with a great variety.

Recently learned about this place and was able to secure a reservation for 2 for the sleigh ride/speakeasy/dinner experience on a cancellation on Friday 29th! There wasn't any snow on the ground, it was raining, and a covered wagon was used in place of the sleigh. It was so much fun with the jingle bells on the horses and they are so docile and friendly! The speakeasy was my favorite part of the experience and wish we could have spent more time! Such a great selection of beverages! The dinner was fabulous as well! We had the roasted duck and it was so tender it fell off the bone! The service was exceptional! Thank you for a last minute addition to our Lake Placid vacation!

We have lived next to Lake Clear Lodge for the last 30 years. Cathy and Ernie are wonderful people. The location is nothing but fantastic. I can hear the sleigh rides go by and people sound so happy. It is one place that you don’t want to miss.

My husband and I spent a weekend staying in a cabin at Lake Clear Lodge and Retreat with family, and it was an all around amazing stay. The cabin was cozy, clean and had everything we needed. The grounds were beautifully maintained and made for adventuring. Dinners were delicious. The speakeasy experience was one of a kind, we learned so much. Ernest, Kathy, and Yurgen are part of a special family sharing their historical retreat. I would never hesitate to spend more time here, if we were closer we would be back for dinners all the time! Definitely recommend staying some nights, or just for a dinner and evening at the "library"!

Although our room was clean, the plumbing could use an update. We enjoyed learning about the history of this lodge and taking part in the Speakeasy and the History of Beer. Breakfast is NOT available and other local restaurants (such as the ADK CAV Cafe at the airport) are highly recommended for meals.
