Upon arriving at the Golden Sands motel we received a warm greeting from the property owner Bob who provided an overview of the facilities available at the property as well as recommended Lake George dining, etc... Bob also provided a fairly long list of rules which I guess stemmed from rude or inconsiderate guests that have stayed there previously. A... more

A weekday warrior here I often look for small Bed and Breakfasts and other weekend retreats from New York City. I come to the Lake George region whenever I can to catch up on some relaxing, fishing and water sports. This is the first time I stayed at the Golden Sands resort and I was happy with my stay. There... more

PROs: nice location (equidistant between Lake George Village and Hunters Point) with private beach and great view of the lake. Wooden play area for kids. Free use of BBQ grills and kayaks. Owners (Bob and his, I presume, wife), plus staff, very nice people indeed and very helpful. Guests were mostly families and the ones that were not families were... more

We planned to stay at the Golden Sands for two nights but, because it was so musty-smelling, we only stayed for one night. I agree with other reviews that the rooms were not that clean either. Before we decided to check out early the maid had come in and cleaned our room. I noticed after that the rug had not... more

Another restful visit to the Golden Sands. This makes our 10th year coming. The kids enjoyed it. The place is clean and safe and has a great beach and view of mountains. Nearby is all area attractions. The owner, Bob and his staff are very professional and courteous and truly care about your comfort. Although not pet friendly, Bob has... more

Right outside our room was a nice deck with a grill. We minutes away from the village. I really enjoyed my stay at the Golden Sands resort it was... more

I booked a stay at Golden Sands on rather short notice via a direct call to their office. The owner, Bob, was extremely patient and accommodating as we matched my availability to the limited vacancies that were still available. Although I was familiar with the property, I had not previously stayed there before and I was pleased by the overall... more

This was our second year at Golden Sands. The rooms are immaculate and the staff is friendly. We met friends we made last year and many new ones. At night someone starts a fire on the beach and everyone toasts marshmallows and makes s'mores. If you go don't miss the Lone Bull, the freshest breakfast ever. more

If we had seen our room before checking in, we would have looked elsewhere. The room was clean but had a dirty look to it due to very old furniture, bedding, etc. The shower was tiny. One lamp did not work, and the other sounded like it would zap you at any instant. But the biggest gripe was noise -... more
