The space 🌊 Welcome to The Sundowner on Lake George Located directly on the east shore of Lake George, The Sundowner is a family-run, waterfront property designed for guests who want easy access to the lake, village, and outdoor fun—all in one walkable location. We’re steps from the beach, minutes from the village, and right where Lake George comes alive in the summer. 🏡 About the Property In 2021, our family took on the renovation of The Sundowner with a simple goal: preserve the charm of a classic Lake George motor lodge while upgrading comfort, style, and amenities. Important (and fun) note about what that means: The Sundowner is a classic lakeside motor lodge—what many people lovingly call a “motel.” If your idea of a perfect stay involves sprawling resorts, endless hallways, or high-rise hotel towers, we may not be the right fit—and that’s okay 😊 If, however, you appreciate nostalgic Lake George charm, a walk-up-style property, a lively waterfront setting, and thoughtfully renovated rooms with modern comforts, you’ll feel right at home here. Today, the property offers a mix of studios, suites, and apartments—each unique, thoughtfully updated, and designed as a comfortable home base for exploring the lake and village. This is a lively, central property, not a secluded resort. Guests choose The Sundowner for its location, amenities, and access to everything Lake George has to offer. 🌞 Amenities Guests Love 🏊 Seasonal outdoor pool 🔥 Hot tub & firepit 🏖️ Sandy beach with lake access 🚣 Complimentary kayaks, canoe, rowboat & paddleboards 🍔 BBQ & outdoor gathering areas 🚶 Walk to shops, restaurants & nightlife 🚎 Trolley stop directly in front of the property The beach and amenities are just ~200 feet from your door, and the village is an easy 5-minute walk. 📍 Location Highlights ✔ Walkable to downtown Lake George ✔ Close to restaurants, bars & live music ✔ Easy access to hiking, boating & attractions ✔ Central, active, and convenient Being in the heart of Lake George means you’re close to the action—perfect for guests who plan to be out enjoying the area. 🕰️ Check-In & Stay Info 🔑 Check-In: Front office (no keyless entry) 🕙 Check-Out: 10:00 AM 🚗 Parking: 1 space per room 📶 Wi-Fi: Network: Sundowner | Password: sundowner6 🧹 Housekeeping: Daily service available If arriving after office hours, we’ll send clear check-in instructions in advance. 📋 House Rules (Quick & Simple) 🪪 Photo ID required at check-in 🍽️ Please wash used dishes before departure ($30 fee if left) 🚣 ID required to use watercraft 🔇 Quiet hours: 10:00 PM – 7:00 AM 🚭 No smoking anywhere on the property 🗑️ Use provided garbage bags 🔧 Report damages promptly These rules help keep the property enjoyable for everyone. 🍽️ Walkable Favorites Nearby ☕ Caffe Vero – Coffee & breakfast 🍳 The Breakfast Spot – Local classic 🍦 Martha’s Ice Cream – A must-visit 🥩 The Log Jam – Rustic dining 🍷 The Algonquin – Lake views & seafood 🥐 Lake George Baking Co. – Pastries & treats 🌲 Things to Do Close By 🚢 Lake George Steamboat cruises 🏰 Fort William Henry Museum 🎢 Six Flags Great Escape ⛰️ Prospect Mountain & local hikes 🎶 Shepard Park & live music 🍷 Adirondack Winery & Olive Oil Co.

With a lot of love and local craftsmanship, we transformed it into charming apartments, suites, and studios. Each space reflects the rich history and culture of Lake George and the Adirondacks with handmade furnishings and intricate woodworking. Our goal? To make sure you feel right at home. We understand that some people might have reservations about the word "Motel." If you can't get over that, we kindly ask you to reconsider booking with us. We are investing our time, money, and lives into retrofitting these amazing pieces of American history, preserving their charm and character for future generations. Our family's journey to re-imagine the mom-and-pop motels of yesteryear into an Adirondack-styled, lakefront rustic retreat is a labor of love and preservation. We believe in the importance of preserving history rather than throwing it away. By repurposing rather than demolishing, we contribute to environmental sustainability and maintain the unique charm of our heritage. We invite you to experience the warmth of a family business, the pride of small business in America, and the beauty of historical preservation. ### Amenities: Our amenities include a seasonal outdoor pool, hot tub, a sandy beach, a fire pit, and a BBQ area. We also offer kayaks, a canoe, a rowboat, and stand-up paddleboards at no extra cost. Everything you need, from shops and restaurants to entertainment, is just a short walk away. The main village is about a 5-minute stroll, and the beach and other amenities are only 200 feet from your front door. We take great pride in our property and aim to provide you with a fantastic experience. So, if you have any questions or special requests, don't hesitate to reach out. We’re here to make your stay as wonderful as possible. ### House Rules: **Photo ID for Check-In** - **Rule**: The guest whose name is on the reservation must show photo ID to check-in. - **Explanation**: Just making sure we know who’s joining the fun!
