What a Waste Of Money
My wife and I were so excited to visit the White face Lodge in Lake Placid. However once we arrived the reality set in. The Food was overpriced and poorly served. We had very noisy neighbours keeping us awake most of the night. We contacted Lodge Security numerous times, their response time was very slow, and we were giving a complete disgruntled attitude from the get go. The so-called Security Guard Ryan who appeared half-asleep informed us their was really not much he could do, and to speak to a Manager in the Morning and file a complaint. We noticed many employees at the front desk were engaged in personal conversations and customer service was not a priority. Our Furnace in our sweet seemed to malfunction creating a very cold room, also very difficult to sleep. Our new vehicle was damaged. Several rust stains were never removed to date. We were informed several ongoing water leaks in the heated garage were the primary cause. We would never stay at this so called RESORT again. Extr...Read more

The quiet get away of a lifetime!
If you are looking for a pampering, quiet get away with the most incredible views, this is it! My husband and I went there alone for a few days and returned home so incredibly relaxed. The lodge is spectacular, the food is fantastic. Not to mention, we slept better than we have in years! The king size bed was so comfortable....we had a hard time getting out of it in the morning!

What a unique and wonderful place!
The ambience, service, quality of rooms and furnishings, stunning lobby, movie theatre, exercise room, pools- this place is unbelievable! We spent 4 days here and have never been more impressed with a resort.

Wow! The Best in Lake Placid!
The Whiteface Lodge is a brand 85 room new condo hotel (fractional ownership) and conference center.
It is done over the top in the great Adirondack camp style of yester years. The great room is absolutely breath taking as well as the rest of the resort. Other guests were also
in awe as they walked through the front doors.
We counted 17 various sitting / lounging areas which provided lots of places to sit with friend.
Unlike other resorts we have been too, the Whiteface Lodge doesn't put everything just into the common areas, the rooms are just as gorgeous with top of the line furnishings.
Although all the amenties aren't completed, most should be completed by late fall.
This is a large property with 2 large ponds and lots of landscaping. The parking is underground so which eliminates the eyesore of vehicles cluttering the grounds.
There is a year round outdoor pool with 2 hot tubs that had just opened as well as some fun amentities such as bowl alleys, games room, movie theat...Read more
