What guests think
At Amber Lantern Efficiency Cottage, travelers describe rustic, budget-friendly cabins in a quiet, country setting a short drive from Lake George, with many praising the friendly owners, clean accommodations, and family-friendly extras like a pool, playground, and outdoor games.
Several reviews note the rustic, dated feel, with small or worn bathrooms, occasional musty odors, and some noisy or older air conditioners. Guests also mention occasional noise from neighboring units and that space and parking can feel tight. Pet friendliness is appreciated by some, but one guest found dog rules unclear. Best suited to budget-minded travelers comfortable with older cabins.

I’m all about rustic cabins in the woods but these just need some TLC. I don’t even care as much about the peeling paint, or rusted shower but the smell of old, musty room enhanced every time the old window unit AC was on was little too much for me. We were lucky the weather was nice so we opted for open windows most of the time. We picked this place because it’s pet friendly. Upon our arrival, the owner/manager (?) greeted me by saying I was supposed to call ahead that I’m bringing a dog. Well, I didn’t know that. Then I was told to minimize the time the dog spends in the cabin alone. So that didn’t seem very dog friendly to me until I saw people who arrived a day after us letting their dogs run in the fenced in pool area off leash and swimming in the pool. Anyway, the rules for dogs just seem too weird and with everything else, I would probably not stay again. The best part is the location.

I travel with my husband and two sons.The location is close to the village of Lake Greorge ( by car), the staff are friendly and helpfull. We like this location becouse the cottage has everything that you need for a stay ( mini kitchen, bathroom with shower, beds, tv , air conditioner and some pots, pans, ect..). Also you can bring your own grill and kitchen items. The location is beautiful. We will back again.

Tom and his wife who own the cabins are so hospitable and will answer any questions you have. The cabins are comfortable, with barbecues, playground and a pool, and close to all activities and are a bit down the road from places to kayak, trails, restaurants, beaches. It also a lovely place to sit outside and chat and relax. We rented 3 cabins. We are definitely thinking of going back next year. Prices are so reasonable.

We love Amber Lantern! Tom is an amazing host and kind and available. The property is clean and neat and offers anything you can need: for grilling, firepit, swimming at the pool, ping pong, volleyball, you name it. We also can walk to the stables next door to take a trail ride. We always want to book the following year before we even leave. We stayed 7 nights. See you next summer Tom!

It was our first stay, and not our last! We enjoyed the kindness of the staff, the clean room/cottage and also the location. There were a few guests that were a bit loud on occasion, but that can't be helped, especially during busy season. We would probably just choose a cabin that is alone rather than shared next time. We look forward to coming again!

I like that it's not the middle of town. I didn't like the noise the neighbors made. I realize they are on vacation too but nobody should be that loud at 11p.m. at night! We also had a little trouble with the toilet but that was easily fixed with a plunger...all in all we had an enjoyable time staying at AMBER LANTERN...

The owners are nice people, friendly and responsive. They took care of us when we needed to extend our stay another day, and upgraded one of our rooms to a better free-standing chalet-type unit. The units were clean, and the aesthetic is traditional knotty pine, old-time Adirondaks camp. Showing the era they are dated to, the bathrooms are small. The units are in varying conditions of wear and tear, some quite "tired" and in need of updating in various ways, such as very noisy air conditioners. The beds were fair to good. It fills the bill for a traditional old motel and affordable, basic accommodations. If you must have modern features like wifi and three-prong electrical outlets, or a luxurious bathroom, these are not for you. Overall we were satisfied to have stayed for three nights. We recommend the free-standing, chalet type units as they are in more finished condition.

Tom and his wife who own the cabins are so hospitable and will answer any questions you have. The cabins are comfortable, with barbecues, playground and a pool, and close to all activities and are a bit down the road from places to kayak, trails, restaurants, beaches. It also a lovely place to sit outside and chat and relax. We rented 3 cabins. We are definitely thinking of going back next year. Prices are so reasonable.

I like that it's not the middle of town. I didn't like the noise the neighbors made. I realize they are on vacation too but nobody should be that loud at 11p.m. at night! We also had a little trouble with the toilet but that was easily fixed with a plunger...all in all we had an enjoyable time staying at AMBER LANTERN...

Rustic wood cabins. Nothing fancy but a pleasant place to stay with easy access to Lake George.

The room, was clean towels very white and organized toilet and bathroom very clean Room smelled little musty but not too bad. we loved the place it has a small refrigerator, bathroom is little for a tall guy but made it work. we will definitely come back We enjoy places like this, in the rustic side. it could use a little upgrade not to make it modern but a bit more comfortable But it is great the way it is.
