Flamingo Resort on Lake George

Best place ever. This was our second year at the flamingo and we absolutely loved it!! We even extended our stay we had so much fun. Mario is amazing and so accommodating. I'm not sure of his name but there's a boy who works the beach sometimes as well as maintenance. He was great. He stopped a couple of boys from throwing rocks in the water. Last year the WiFi was pretty much non existent but this year it has been upgraded so it works amazing. The jumping bridge is a favourite with my kids. Already booked for next yearand this will be the only place we vacation at while in lake george!!

The Flamingo Resort is the best family resort we have been to. The place is spotless and beautiful. The staff was beyond courteous and helpful. There was so much to do for the adults and children. The rooms are spacious and clean. We had the best time. I would give it a 10 if it were possible. We will be returning in 2024.

We have been staying in Lake George for years. Our latest stint has been for the past 12 years with our daughter, her family and other friends/family. This year, we decided to try a new place as the one we usually stayed at was getting a little run down. I don't think we will be returning though. The Flamingo is under new management and they did everything they could to be helpful and accessible (especially Grant!), however, we heard from many of the long-time people that stay there that it wasn't the same. The beach area is one of the absolute best, with plenty of room, chairs, two decks, and a bridge that people could jump off of into the water. They have a float in the water, too (however it broke during our stay and was removed for the remainder). They should also make a shaded area available or make some umbrellas available because it was HOT with nowhere to go unless you had your own umbrella/tent. At night you could still go out on the decks and it was possible to block out some of the light so you could see the stars. The 'cabin' that my daughter rented was really a glorified room with two small bedrooms. The 'deck' outside (maybe 4 feet long out from the door) had a small, cramped table that was outside, however, the people next door and upstairs had to walk in the cramped space in order to get down to the parking lot. That was the view from the 'deck' too - parked cars. So, if you wanted to eat outside you had to secure a picnic table for yourself before someone else claimed it. Same with the barbecues. (We were used to renting a cabin that was spacious and had a living room area that could hold a group of people; it had it's own deck, table and umbrella and down from the deck an outside grassy area with another picnic table and barbecue.) It was very noisy because of the people upstairs and alongside the 'cabin' and didn't have a 'cabin' feel at all. We stayed up the hill from our daughter, and when I say hill I mean steep hill. The entire place is very hilly. Our room was like any other motel room with a fridge and small microwave. No cups, no place to hang your clothes, just a set of drawers. Small table outside and everyone used the walkway in front of the rooms (again, in the last place we stayed, each motel room had its own deck, table, umbrella, barbecue). While I can understand not having a private deck for the motel room, what we didn't like was the fact that there were fluorescent-type lights that stayed on outside the room until around 11pm or so. The lights give the place a very cheesy look and not a mountain retreat look, and you can't control the light outside your room. The pool on the lake side of the property was nice, very clean, had tables/umbrellas/chairs and some toys, but it's located right by Route 9 so you have traffic going by all the time and it reminded us of the hotels down by the junction in Lake George where the pools and rooms are right next to the road. We extended our stay to a full

The flamingo is amazing!! Such a great place with amazing staff. The beach and lake access is great. We met some really nice people during our stay. The kids loved the jumping bridge. Only downfall is the wifi isn't super stable but I heard it's supposed to be upgraded next year. One thing we didn't enjoy was that the towels were full of lint.. So when we dried off after our showers we were covered in lint... But don't get me wrong I'm very grateful that towels are provided because it saves us from packing them!! Really nice grounds. Beautiful scenery and pool. Friendly place. Already booked our stay there next year!!

Just got back from our annual trip to The Flamingo Resort on Lake George and I must say I was a little apprehensive this year. We have been going here since 2004 with friends and family and the resort was sold over the winter so I wasn't sure what to expect. My fears were quickly put to rest when we checked in. The new owners introduced themselves and welcomed us back like we were old friends. The resort is as family friendly as it always was and the new owners have made a few small changes for the better. During our time there they asked us for any suggestions to make our stay there more enjoyable. As we checked out I booked my room for next year. Can't wait to see what next year brings.
