Winterberry Bed & Breakfast Lake Placid — Hotel in Town of North Elba

The Winterberry B&B is exactly the kind of place I wanted to stay while showing a friend Lake Placid. The entire place is so cozy and welcoming, it didn't feel like I was staying somewhere unfamiliar- it felt like I was visiting family. The fire place and couch made the perfect hangout area to enjoy a cup of tea while planning our next adventure for the day. The Whiteface room was incredibly spacious, with a large private bathroom that had more than enough room for two adults to get ready in. Every area of the B&B- both private rooms and community spaces- were incredibly clean.||||Randy and Lisa couldn't be more perfect hosts. The two could tell you every trail, peak, restaurant... ANYTHING you need or want to know about Lake Placid. Even if you aren't big into taking 4 hour hikes through one of the 46 high peaks, they can be sure to tell you where to go to see amazing views of the town and nature! Their knowledge of the town and things to do is just one thing that made our stay incredible. The hot breakfast that they prepared was an unexpected touch to the weekend. From the freshly cut fruit to the warm fluffy pancakes, it was so nice to not have to spend more money on a breakfast and coffee in town. Plus, the home-made almond poppyseed loaf was to die for! ||||We arrived late Friday night, and the check-in process was quick, easy, and self-sufficient. I was worried about needing assistance but Randy has thought everything through to make sure that your stay, from start to finish, will be seamless. ||||Randy and Lisa go above and beyond making sure your stay is perfect. Needless to say, this will be the only place I stay when returning to the most adorable town on...

Our stay at Winterberry B&B was nothing short of excellent. ||||The B&B is located just a short walk from the Olympic skating venues, Olympic Museum and shops restaurants and activities of main street Lake Placid. ||||Communication was excellent and the Check in process was quick and seamless. Winterberry is quiet, warm and cozy, and delightfully simple. Everything was clean, well appointed and stocked for guests comfort. But, that's just the building...||||Hospitality here is the key. Randy and Lisa are perfect hosts and innkeepers...available when needed, but completely unobtrusive. Randy is a wealth of knowledge about Lake Placid, the Olympics, the Adirondack region and winter sports and outdoor recreation in general.|| ||We had a particular quest on our short vacation, but due to a few days of unexpected and unfortunate weather conditions, it looked like it was not to be. Randy, totally unsolicited, went way, way, waaaaaaay beyond his call of duty to personally make sure that our needs were met. It was the highlight of our vacation and we can't say enough about how special it was for him to go out of his way for us like that. That is not just "customer service", that is HOSPITALITY at it's apogee! ||||We give our highest recommendation for the Winterberry B&B and can't...

I have been traveling to Lake Placid for many years and typically stay in town. This year, traveling for work, I found myself booked out of many of the usual hotels I stay at. Thank goodness the Winterberry was available. I wasn't sure what to expect but was pleasantly surprised when Lisa and Randy (the owners) maintained great communication with me the week leading up to our stay and made sure we had all the information we needed to make our stay seamless! ||The bed and breakfast itself is cozy, quaint, and everything you might think of when you think "mountain town B&B". The room we stayed in was certainly spacious for two people and everything was pristine, including the private bath attached to our room.||Like many B&Bs breakfast was offered and was very delicious! Both the cook and Randy visited with us briefly but left us to enjoy the wonderful breakfasts. The hosts were friendly and helpful without being overattentive. ||Although the B&B is about a 15-minute walk into town (a less than 5-minute drive) it did not affect the usual feel of our trips and was not an...
