This is the view from the back of the property.
This room has a double bed and a twin bed. It has a stand up shower in the bathroom and is heated with electric heat.
In this room we have replaced the bed shown here with a queen bed that was make by the Amish. It is a beautiful wood bed with a wooden canopy. There is also a set of bunk beds in this room. The room is heated with electric heat.
This is the apartment.
It has a queen size bed in the bedroom and then a futon in the livingroom. The apartment has a small kitchen and a TV in the livingroom.
This is the cottage.
The only change in this picture is the kitchen and diningroom floor are now natural pine.

Spruce Lodge was built in the early 1900's. We are guessing around 1910. It was purchased by my grandparents in 1949. My grandfather traveled a lot for his job and my grandmother stayed in Lake Placid and ran Spruce Lodge as a tourist home where breakfast was not an option. We have over an acre and a half of property which borders a large pond at the back of the property. We think the main house resembles a large farmhouse which has a porch that stretches across the front of the building. Since I purchased the property in 1986, I have tried not to change too much from when my grandparents owned it. I have found that changes were necessary to keep up with the times. Most people describe my place as being cozy and homelike. I have updated the rooms so they all have private baths and a couple have queen sized beds. The rest have double beds. The Cottage, I rent out as one unit. It can sleep 6 people The Cottage was probably built at the same time as the main house. I understand that at one time, it was the workshop for the main house. I have done quite a bit of decorating in the Cottage. There are two bedrooms (one with a queen bed and the other with a queen bed plus a set of bunk beds) and a bath upstairs. Downstairs there is a livingroom with a fireplace, fully equipped kitchen and dining room. We are located inside Lake Placid, close to all area activities.

4.4 out of 5Great Stay Yet Again at Spruce Lodge
March 23, 2012
This was the second stay at Spruce for my husband and I. We really enjoyed our stay. The rooms are perfect-just what you need-very clean-nice bathroom-very cozy. We were so glad we could visit with our little friends we had made (the cats) we left our door open so they could roam in and out, they are so cute. I really think Spruce is the best kept secret, the value for that area is outstanding. Thanks again and we will be back next year!!

Nice place to stay. We were hiking Mt Marcy the next day and we had a good night sleep with a delightfull breakfast before we hit the road.
4.4 out of 5Great place to stay
September 19, 2011
I was a little hesitant when I learned that there were cats in the main house, but aside from a few brief appearances I would have never known they were there. Great value, cozy and nothing fancy but perfect for a long weekend away. Room was immaculate and warm, and the main town is minutes away. Breakfast was simple but satisfying, would definitely stay there again.
3.8 out of 5A good value
September 13, 2011
The room was extremely clean and neat. This was an excellent value. Cont. Breakfast was to be served by 8:30am and the attendent had not even started to bring things out which was unexpected being that we were due to leave very early for a long travel home, so we had to go elsewhere to eat. The shower was very HOT then very COLD had to keep getting out to adjust the temp, took a long time to shower. Don't know that we will stay there again.
Innkeeper Response
Unless this was day I had an appointment and did not set up breakfast, I am confused. Our Breakfast is always set up by 8am. We have it timed so the coffee is ready when all the elements of the breakfast have been put out. As far as the water temperature, all the rooms run off the hot water from the furnace, if you are in the shower and someone else starts to draw water, you shower will get cold. It is an old house and this is just one of the quirks. Very sorry for your disappointed stay, we are always striving to do our best and I guess we have to try harder.

August 12, 2011
This is a fantastic place to stay in Lake Placid. It's about 20 minutes from the Adk Loj trail head. We Stayed and hiked a few 46ers over the weekend. Our room was very comfortable, clean, and quiet. We have stayed in a lot of B&Bs and for the money this is one of the best. Will stay again and again.

3.8 out of 5Good Experience, Basic Accommodations
June 29, 2011
This B&B fit our needs well since we were there on business & didn't have much time to spend in our room. Very clean and quiet with a private feel - just far enough from downtown. Bed was comfortable w/plenty of extra pillows & blankets. Cons - bathroom mirrors were deteriorated & difficult to use & mirror frame blocked access to electrical outlet so couldn't plug in our hairdryer. Unscented or lighter scent laundry soap would be a plus! Innkeeper could be a little more welcoming. Didn't sample the breakfast so no comment on that but did use the coffeemaker in the room - which was well-stocked for coffee.
4.2 out of 5Relaxing in the Adirondacks
June 25, 2011
Great service, quaint and convenient location. You can walk to restaurants, liquor stores and scenic places from here. The proprietor is extra friendly and helpful and I'd definitely line up to stay here if I am ever in the area again.
