The room was TINY for the price. There was no soap provided. When I informed staff about this at check out they simply said that they would inform housekeeping, but offered no word of apology. The overall attitude of staff was not exactly rude, but certainly not friendly.

The Lake House
We were very suprised at the place. The pictures online didn't do it any justice. Very relaxing atmosphere. Pleasant staff. The thermostat in the room was difficult to use. But that is my only complaint. We were pleasantly surprised to get 2-5$ coupons for the on site resturaunt. And a complementary boat tour also on property. We didn't get to use it. However we will be back! All around good experience. Excellant food too!!

Great location, though hotel is a bit dated
I was there for the Baseball HOF, so you can't beat the location (a five minute walk). It was by the lake with a nice indoor/outdoor restaurant. It's more of a motel than hotel and is a bit dated. I was on the first floor and could hear the people above me walking around and could hear my neighbors talking (thin walls?). Shower was good; bathroom okay; and it had a table in which to work on. No iron or ironing board in the room, which was odd. Also, nearly $400/night which seemed excessive.

I stayed here with my daughter while my son was in the Dreams Park tournament. It was absolutely awesome! I was so happy we decided to stay in town where we could walk everywhere while my car stayed parked for free. Housekeeping was awesome every day. The view can't be beat! And we enjoyed the food at the restaurant. Our trip could not have been any better and a BIG part of it was because we stayed here.

I would have rated this property excellent. It truly was a fantastic location. It is a motel in the true definition of a 1960’s motel. Very cute and kitschy. Walkable everywhere. I watched a young man spend over an hour one morning dust and sweep every nook and cranny of the exterior building windows, doors, walkway overhang ceiling, stairs. Spotless. Each doorway had two chairs in front under the window. We read books. It was really sweet. Our room interior and bathroom were just as clean. Not a spot of dust or dirt on anything. Furniture, baseboards, and bathrooms were spotless. Now here it comes I am sure this is the reason for their prepay in full policy … the owners of this property must address the moisture problem and resulting mold smell. I went to the office and received the response that it was because people leave their ac’s on. Sorry folks you can’t blame that. I saw reviews mentioned room dampness and damp sheets. Our sheets were absolutely damp. We put the ac setting on dry and this helped. Since we arrived late and were leaving early, we grabbed the emergency breakdown blankets out of the car and slept on those on top of the bed It is with regret that we cannot recommend the property. It’s really is a shame. This property could be a real goldmine.

I’ll skip right to the unique part of this hotel. We arrived at this hotel during a summer heat wave. Hotel was very nice sitting right on the lake. Room was nice with good air conditioning. However, during the night our air conditioner wasn’t working. We woke up in a sweat which only got worse after showering. When I went to the office ( where the air conditioning was working nicely ) and told them the problem, they asked for my room number than walked over and pushed a button on a control panel and told me I should have the air back in a bit. And I did! But obviously they could control the temperature in each room which they did! We had the same problem the second night! Are you kidding me? A beautiful property the owners have well maintained but have decided to nickel and dime the customers to shave their electric bill (but not when it comes to their office). If you’re staying here in the summer, pack a portable fan! If you’re coming in the winter, maybe pack some blankets!…LOL!…. If I lived to a 100! Rick Wyatt Iroquois ON

It is near the lake and you can take a boat ride directly from there. It has an attached restaurant with seating outside too. The check in process was very easy. My only concern was we were on the second floor and my elderly aunt had to take a break going up the stairs. I did not ask if there was an elevator though as I didn't see any signs that there was one. This place was close to my son's wedding venue. All in all it was lt was a pleasant experience!

Just to be clear: the Lake Front Hotel is actually a MOTEL. The door to your room opens onto a parking lot, and other guests walk by the room's only window. So, "charming" is not the word that comes to mind. Maybe overpriced? Still, our room was clean and quiet, the AC worked nicely and the bed was comfortable. Breakfast in the restaurant was okay, though the service was a bit haphazard. Also, unless your only reason in visiting is to spend a day at the Baseball Hall of Fame, don't bother staying in the Village of Cooperstown. There's literally nothing else downtown and pizza seemed to be the only food available.
