“Spacious rooms and a lovely property”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 August 2011
2
people found this review helpful

We stayed two nights at the Lake and Pines with our daughters. The room was quite large and spacious, the breakfast area was in a lovely spot overlooking the lake, and there were a few things that made the visit nicer than in some of the other places we have stayed in in the Cooperstown area.
We did not use the pools, or the paddle boats, but everything looks clean and in good condition.
The breakfast was coffee, tea, hot chocolate, juice, toast, cereals, bagels, etc. Perfect for a quick breakfast before going to visit the town.

Room Tip: we stayed in a room with a private balcony (124) with a nice partial view of the lake

“Unbelievably rock hard mattress.”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 August 2011
1
person found this review helpful

Most motels have rather firm mattresses and that’s great -- I like a firm mattress, but ours at Lake ‘N Pines was ultra hard. Trying to sleep on my side I had to constantly turn from side to side to avoid very sore hips and shoulders. Their mattresses aren’t just firm, they are over the top rock hard. I got so desperate for comfort I even tried sleeping on top of my pillow. If you enjoy sleeping on a rock this is the place to go.

“Unsatified, overpaid and uncomfortable”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 August 2011
1
person found this review helpful

Going strictly from the website, I expected a comfortable suite and access to the lake. We got charged more per night than the website quoted. The suite had a nice view of the lake but, that's the extent of my enjoyment of this place. The deck paint was peeling and besides a picnic table there were no chairs to sit and relax.
HARD mattress, hard foam pillows and very old polyester bed spreads. Very dated flimsy furniture. "Free Wifi"... I had to go outside and sit in the parking area to get a signal. There was one air conditioner in the wall in the living room of our suite but none in either bedroom. Very uncomfortable. The free breakfast was fine, nothing special but I did expect more than a bagel or cereal.
To sum up this review, I am very disappointed at the money we spent for what we got for the price. Again, thinking we could utilize the lake was a big part of why I chose this place. NO real lake usage here.

“Why do I pay for this?”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 August 2011

Sure it's a room with a bed, but the only good thing about this place is that it's clean. There's no water pressure; the towels, bedding, pillows are so thin that it's almost comical (plus the quality is frightening - your " towel" permits you to exfoliate & dry simultaneously after your drizzle); the sink, beds, chairs, etc., are from a1980s time warp (some of this stuff isn't even broke, yet); the free breakfast is so bad that it could be almost funny (there is nothing there that tastes remotely like food - I'm still puzzling over how they make dark brown water that doesn't even smell like coffee, but that's what it must be because that's what the label says on the pot). A few rooms have a lake view, but all are noisy because the walls are as thin as the towels. And please don't ever leave something behind because you'll never see it again even though the very "nice" front desk person will act concerned, it's just a smoke screen - they'll promise you they'll make every effort to return it to you, but the promises are much like their "coffee."
