Interesting place. The room is decorated in a lovely fashion but it is literally the SMALLEST room I have stayed in. I have traveled extensively in Europe where rooms are very small but this is behind those. Also, there is no comfortable place to sit and relax. When you are in the room, your only options are to lay on the bed or sit in an antique hard chair. Finally, it would be great if you let people know that the majority of the rooms are up a windy, steep staircase.

I really enjoyed the scenic views that the property had to offer (check the listing so you can select a room with a view if this is important to you). I enjoyed dinner downstairs in the tavern while sitting on the back porch. Watched the sun set while enjoying dinner and a drink. I appreciated the contactless entry and checkout and the little shared kitchen for morning coffee.

Pictures made this look a little more remote, but it's actually connected to a restaurant and next to a public beach and a busy road. Very clean room; also small. The Fish Creek room does not have a view of the water, but the road noise is not bad.

Used The Nest on Saratoga Lake as our base of operations while attending the Saratoga Jazz Festival at SPAC. Stayed in the Owl's Den room, which is one flight up; not too many stairs for these seniors. Communication before we arrived was smooth, and the location is easy to find. Parking was right in front. Especially liked the no-contact registration; you just go to your (keypad locked) room! The view of the lake and surroundings is stunning! The room was cozy and the bed comfortable. Amenities included DirectTV, extra bedding in case it got cold, a few toiletries, snacks and bottled water. Towels were big and the enclosed shower stall was nice and hot. Outside the room were a microwave, Keurig coffee machine and pods, and small fridge. Very convenient! Also convenient was the attached restaurant, Dock Brown's. Service and food were great! Even got to sample an ale I had not heard of: Grateful Dead Juicy Pale Ale. And it was excellent.
