Thank you for your review, Erica. We appreciate your communications re: your visit and items that we needed to be aware of, and hope you enjoyed your stay. Unfortunately, our clothes dryer failed immediately prior to your arrival, and while we called promptly for service, and it has since been repaired, we realize it was inconvenient to not have that available during your stay, particularly following a rainy day! Not the best timing for an appliance to fail. We do hope you enjoyed the rest of your visit, and return to visit again in the future.

Ideal Lake George House

Pine Nook was a perfect house for our group of 4 adults and 2 kids. It was very clean, cozy and had everything we needed. The owners were easy to get in touch with and friendly. The location was convenient and the neighborhood quiet. We can’t say enough nice things about this house.

Cozy House - Great Getaway

My family and I stayed in this lovely, cozy house for about a week in January. It had everything we needed, was very pleasant and warm. The fireplace made it welcoming and nice during cold winter evenings. Kids had a ton of fun in the back yard in the snow. A great place for a break.

Lake George getaway

Helen was able to get us an early check-in (big plus) and left a binder of helpful things to know and places to go. Property was close to nearby attractions and suited our needs. Rooms were spacious and cozy, aside from the kitchen area which felt a tad too small for our group of five women (mini-reunion). Overall, a nice, relaxing getaway.

We spent several days at Pine Nook with our son, daughter-in-law and 2 grandkids. It's a beautiful and very comfortable place to stay! We all agreed the first evening that we felt right at home. Communication with the owner Helen was terrific! Highly recommend and we would definitely stay there again if we visit Lake George in the future.

Lake george winterfest

Helens home was clean and only 10 minutes from downtown where winterfest was held. Plenty of parking, outdoor screened in patio was useful because it wasn't too cold out when we stayed. Plenty of games and books and wifi actually worked. Bed accommodations was sufficient for us 3 couples. I personally enjoyed the top bunk of the bunk bed. I'd definitely stay there again.

Great stay!

When we were looking for a place near Lake George we were attracted to the screened porch on the back of the house. Little did we know that the entire house was great! Nicely furnished but still really comfortable for our young grandkids. Helen has done a great job stocking everything you might want - movies, games, books, as well as great kitchen things. We even found a set of really small screwdrivers that we used to assemble a birthday present for our 8 year old grandson!! Helen was also very responsive with our questions. Great place to stay - highly recommend it.

Great to be there!

We stayed here last year and it met all our criteria. We rebooked it for this year and it was just as good, minus the previous year's road construction! :) Another great time. In love with the screened-in porch. Kitchen rocks and the living room is comfortable to be in! And i used the office for some business and it is great. Everything is first class. Thank you for being a great home owner with a dynamite place.
