Schroon Lake Bed and Breakfast

We stayed with Mark and Sharon for five nights. The service, food, and friendly atmosphere exceeded our expectations. The most difficult moment of our stay was leaving. Mark and Sharon, please accept our gratitude for a job very well done. Bill and Arleen Elliott

I had a fabulous 2-day stay at the Schroon Lake Bed and Breakfast. Mark and Sharon are generous and professional innkeepers that may you feel right at home. The B&B is clean and comfortable and easily accessible, between Lake Placid and Lake George... a home away from home. The breakfasts are scrumptious (omelettes, homemade waffles with fresh fruit, canadian bacon). They gave me homemade scones for my son away at camp that I was visiting. The kind of personal touches that stand out. I recommend the B&B to all travelers in upstate New York. July 2012

The accomodations were very nice. Mark and Sharon are great hosts. The only downside is the location next to the Northway (Rt 87). The traffic noise takes away from the tranquil location.

I recommended your B&B to friends of ours who might be making a trip up your way.

This was a delightful respite from our routines. We were made to feel right at home when we entered this B&B. Our room was a simple, elegant and relaxing. Mark & Sharon were great hosts and were very helpful in getting us acquainted with the area. Snow was an added bonus and we went snow shoeing. The breakfasts and tea time were tops! We have stayed at many B&B's...this one is worth repeating.

Schroon Lake B&B is the perfect get away! With the comforts of home and pamperings of a palace, you too will be a returning guest. Mark and Sharon definitely have a gift when it comes to hospitality. As one who scrutinizes for cleanliness, this place rates with 100% excellence! Mark's breakfasts are not only the most amazing to hit your tastebuds, but are also beautiful works of art. Full of warmth and welcoming-you will love everything about this Inn! Scott and Helen~Quinton, New Jersey

We very much enjoyed our stay at Schroon Lake B&B. The Mountain View room was excellent, the breakfasts were great and we were treated like royalty. We hope to come back in the future. Arlene & Seymour

We recently had a great two day stay at Schroon Lake Bed and Breakfast. Mark and Sharon have a beautiful place and the Adirondack cabin was a special oasis for some rest and relaxation. For our first greeting with a warm fire and pumpkin cookies, we knew it would be a great place. We certainly were not disappointed :)

There aren't enough words to express how wonderful our stay the the Schroon Lake Bed and Breakfast was!! Pleasant, accomodating, friendly, welcoming. The breakfast lovingly prepared by Mark was amazing, homemade bread each morning, and tasty treats inthe afternoon. The owner's Mark & Sharon treated us like visiting family in their home! Certainly makes us want to come back for a restful weekend soon when we aren't so rushed by the wedding events! Thank You Mark & Sharon!

Mark and Sharon have created a great atmosphere to relax and enjoy the surroundings.

We were only there for one night, but it was an enjoyable experience. We would return if we are back in the area.

We enjoyed our stay at Schroon Lake B&B very much! Always an enjoyable experience with such gracious hosts, beautiful rooms, and delicious breakfasts. An absolutely wonderful weekend get-away!

Truly a home away from home,nothing like we ever experienced before. Breakfast was delicious,Mark and Sharon are super Innkeepers can't wait to return to be treated like royalty again. My wife said it felt like second honeymoon.

Mark and Sharon Piper are quintessentially prepared Inn Keepers of this gorgeous B & B. They are warm, inviting, kind, helpful. They work to make your stay as lovely as is possible. We favor the Adirondak Cottage which is just the perfect get away, offering a camp feeling with all the comforts of home. Mark and Sharon prepare beautiful breakfasts and with just a little notice, are all too happy to accommodate a special diet. Just wait until you go to the local eatery and hear Mark sing about things he cares about... and welcomes others to the open mike all night long. Schroon Lake is beautiful and so is the welcome at the Schroon Lake B & B. THANK YOU Sharon and Mark

We loved our stay. The room was relaxing. Love the front porch. The food was excellent and filling! Mark and Sharon are the perfect hosts. Can't wait for a repeat stay!

Wayne, Travis, and I had more than a fantastic few days at Schroon Lake...we had a wonderful experience at Schroon Lake B&B. Mark and Sharon could not have been nicer hosts. Our cottage was beautiful...dining was incredible (especially that breakfast!)...folks were friendly all around...birds were singing...scones were unbelievable...we could go on... Many thanks for a lovely experience. We WILL be back! Fondly, Wayne, Pam and Travis Steadman

Spent Lake Placid Ironman 2011 weekend with Sharon & Mark as our wonderful hosts. Felt like part of their family in this most top notch B & B. Clean and elegantly comfortable. As frequent B & B'rs, would definitely recommend this venue. P &J, Ormond Beach, FL

This was an excellent choice for us, beautiful home, gracious host, and attended to our every needed, even changed time for breakfast to meet our time schedule. I would highly recommend this B&B, we would certainly return for a future visit, the rooms are just like the pictures. The food and treats in the afternoon were fabulous. Mike and Stephanie Hunter

Beautiful location, excellent service and super friendly hosts! We instantly felt like old friends. The food was excellent also. Highly recommended!

We where in a bind to find a place to stay to pickup our daughter Mariah from college. We didn't make plans ahead of time. I happen across this Schroon Lake bed and breakfast we decided to call hoping that we could stay there. When Sharon answer the phone she was so nice and it was a comfort to know. When we arrived at the Schroon Lake bed and breakfast. We where in for a treat they treated us very nice and we felt very at home. Treating us like extended family. The cottage was beautiful as was the whole experience. Thank you Mark & Sharon. Anyone thinking of staying at there Bed and breakfast will be in for a great vacation. Hope to be there again soon. Since we returned home we have been trying find a Scones recipe Similar to Marks but we haven't found one as tasty. P.S. wish Mark could send us the magic recipe.

Outstanding experience and tremendous value. The place is immaculate and the rooms are spacious and well appointed-obviously cared for by people who truly go the extra mile. the place will be perfect when Mark learns to grow grass! Thanks to both Sharon and Mark for making our brief stay extraordinary.

My husband & I stayed at the Schroon Lake B & B and it FAR exceeded our expectations. Mark & Sharon went the extra mile for us! We were presented with gourmet breakfasts, spotless and beautiful accommodations, surrounded by incredible grounds. We HIGHLY recommend the Schroon Lake B & B and are already planning to return!

As a gluten-free traveler, it is very difficult to find innkeepers who can accommodate my diet. Sharon and Mark did so without my even asking! I usually travel with my own food, so I can't tell you how much of a joy it was to be able to sit down for evening tea and gluten-free cookies and a breakfast plate that looked just as beautiful and tasted just as good as my boyfriend's gluten-full version! Yay for being sensitive to food allergies. The rest of the inn and our stay was delightful too, we especially enjoyed sitting by the fire in the evening, listening to the classical music.

One of the nicest places we have experienced. Food was unbelievably great, rooms were nice sized, quiet, clean, and very comfortable. Updated bathrooms were greatly appreciated. Innkeepers have mastered hospitality. Will definitely be a return visit and would recommend to all.

This B&B is tops in our book! The home and property are lovely and situated in an area that is close to all sorts of seasonal activities. We skiied and snowshoed nearby, shopped the outlets, and enjoyed this beautiful inn. The rooms are well appointed and lovely. We highly recommend the Mountain View Suite with a separate sitting room w/ fireplace, TV, DVD player-a great place to relax. due to dierary restricitons, both Sharon and Mark were very understanding and supportive of providing me with healthy and delicious gluten free foods/beverages. We just can't say enough good things about our stay...other than you should make a reservation and we'll be back again! Thank you!

Our room was wonderful. The bed was so comfortable and we had a suite that had a private sitting room with tv and dvd player. We didn't want to leave!

My girlfriend and I just spent a weekend at the Scroon Lake Bed and Breakfast for my Birthday. Our stay was absolutely wonderful! The place is perfect for a romantic get away. Our hosts Sharon and Mark made us feel like family with the perfect mix of attention when needed and privacy when preferred. The rooms were clean and up to date with every attention to detail. There was even a delicious snack left every afternoon to be enjoyed with 24 hour tea and coffee service. Each morning Mark made a gourmet breakfast that was big enough to hold us for the entire day. There was also plenty to do in the area even though we came up during a snow storm. Also a number of places to get a good meal in the evening or have a few drinks before turning in for the night. Sharon provided the names and locations of a number of additional off site outdoor activities to enjoy as well. One of which was a romantic horse drawn sleigh ride through the woods. Perfect!!!! We loved it! Without hesitation I would strongly recommend this establishment and area to anyone interested. We intend to go back again in the Summer or Fall of this year ourselves. Honestly I can't say enough good things about this B&B or our hosts Mark and Sharon.

This is a fantastic B&. Mark and Sharon are among the best hosts we have encountered. They are friendly and professional. The rooms are ample yet cozy with all the amenities one can ask for. Breakfasts and afternoon snacks exceeded our expectations. We recommend this place amply.

great place, nice beds, great breakfast and friendly innkeepers.

Everything was marvelous about our stay: being welcomed at our vehicle and being helped into the house, the wonderful sights and smells of a crackling fireplace and hot apple cider, the friendly smiles from our host/hostesses, etc. I've stayed at a lot of B&Bs, but this one was BY FAR the most cozy, friendly, and wonderful one I've ever experienced. Did I mention how amazing the breakfasts were?? :) Can't wait to go back again!

This was my first time at a bed and breakfast, and I would stay here every time I am in the area. Could smell the fireplace coming up the drive, and then opened the door to the fall scented candles just right...not overpowering. The fire was going, and everything was clean and charming. Mark and Sharon were friendly and warm....and talented !....(mmmmm....the homemade scones and belgian waffles, and pumpkin biscotti). Our room / suite was more spacious than I expected and decorated with a very homey, quaint charm. I almost hate to admit all this for fear that word will get out on this great B&B....and I won't find a room next time.....Colleen S., E. Aurora, NY

Very beautiful house, nicely decorated. they keep their garden and backyard wonderful. I loved their fireplace- looks pretty and so warm!! the hosts were very nice and friendly. the room was spacious and very clean. the bathroom was spotless! amenities were in good quality as well. very true to the pictures you see on website. they serve some treats for the afternoon along with a variety of tea selections and Keurig coffee! and the breakfast was delicious!! we were so full!! I would definitely recommend this B&B and if we have a chance, we would love to go back and spend more time!

Welcoming hosts, great breakfasts, the Inn is perfectly situated for touring the Adirondacks.

Wonderful innkeepers. Very quiet and relaxing. An entire suite, not just a room and bath. Gourmet breakfast served.

From beginning to end felt at home away from home!!!!!!!!!!!! Will be back!!! Mario Mayantz

Mark and Sharon were really great! Breakfasts and snacks were wonderful and they both made us feel welcome and at home. We would definitely stay here again!

As you know it is sometimes difficult to judge the property without seeing it. I must say this property exceeded our expectations. I am a stickler for detail, and every detail was addressed. The breakfast was fantastic (as Mark is quite the chef). The Inkeepers were outstanding, friendly, welcoming, personable and the topper was we got entertained by Mark, playing the guitar and singing in front of the fireplace. What a treat. We will definitely go back. Ernie & Cathy

We couldn't have asked for more - the room was wonderful, the hosts friendly and helpful (but not too "in your face"), the house and location delightful. At first glance it doesn't look like there's much going on, but ask Mark and Sharon for suggestions and you won't run out of things to do and places to see. Check out the "open mike" night at the Schroon Lake boathouse where local musicians show their stuff. One minor concern: it's next to the I-87 and you can sometimes hear the traffic. It didn't bother us, but if you're really sensitive this might be a problem for you.

Peaceful break. Convenient location -- easy to get to and to access countryside. Directions to the B&B were accurate and easy to follow.

We just spent two days at this lovely B & B. The room was outstanding, better than most we have stayed in. The breakfast was yummy, and made from scratch. Next time we travel into this area, The Scroon Lake Bed and Breakfast will be my only choice. Leona & Chuck

A beautiful, peaceful, comfortable place to stay. Mark and Sharon when out of there way to accommodate a special request that we had. Will definitely be back when we are in the area.

When we first pulled in Mark was immediately there to greet and welcome us to his home. The service was outstanding and the breakfast was excellent. Mark and Sharon go out of their way to make you feel at home. We would recommend Schroon Lake Bed and Breakfast to anyone.

a very pleasant experience

We spent our first weekend and Schroon Lake and was pleasantly surprised by the lovely accomadations and warmth provided by Sharon and Mark. We truly got lucky choosing this place off the internet...as we all know things aren't always as they are presented. Here, you will not be disappointed

It was our pleasure to stay with Sharon and Mark at the Schroom Lake B & B. The Inn is lovely; our room was comfortable and thoughtful details were evident throughout. Breakfast was delicious and plentiful. A great experience all round.

We stayed two days and throughly enjoyed it. Mark and Sharon were wonderful and treated us like family, maybe even better. Breakfast was gormet specialties every morning. Sight seeing advise was right on. The inn was spacious, beautiful and clean. Schroon Lake is the Adirondacks without the crowds. Our last stay was over twenty years ago. We were glad to be back. Don and Tati, Staten Island NY

Our three days at Schroon Lake B&B were delightful. The ambience, the breakfasts, the host and hostess - all were terrific. Just the front porch by itself, with its view across the valley, defined relaxation and stress-relief.

This was our first visit to Schroon Lake. The Inn was beautiful and the hosts wonderful. We chose the Adirondack Cottage and were impressed by the cleanliness and its amenities... it was missing nothing! The morning breakfast was charming and the hosts even adjusted to our unusual schedule. Stay there and you will have a great vacation.

Just wanted to say that we were very pleasantly surprised with the size of our room and how comfortable it was. Mark and Sharon went above and beyond helping us out in any way we needed, they were very friendly and helpful giving us ideas in where to go biking ect. I would highly recommend their B&B and would go back there again when we are in the area. Monica & Terry Kanata, ON

Fantastic service and amazing food. High quality from the moment we arrived. This turned out to be our favorite place that we stayed on our honeymoon. The nearby town is quaint, picturesque, and the innkeepers are quick with recommendations and advice regarding the surrounding area. The common area is tranquil and relaxing and the breakfast terrace is the perfect place to begin your Adirondack day. I wish we could have taken their Sun Tea recipe. The afternoon welcome cookies and morning scones are lovely!

Thank you for welcoming our granddaughter. She enjoyed the visit and the relaxation. We loved the summer experience and all the special places we could visit. We have never been disappointed staying with you and I am sure we will be back in the future. Your good food and fellowship was outstanding.

Wonderful!

We really enjoyed our stay and it was very relaxing and the atmosphere was splendid!

We loved having a sitting room and a sleeping room and appreciated the air conditioner on a warm summer's night. Mark and Sharon were very helpful with recommendations of restaurants and day trips. We loved the central location and felt very pampered during our stay.

Excellent accomodations! Wonderful food! Sharon and Mark were great, friendly, knowledgeable of the surrounding area, really made you feel at home. Loved sitting on the front porch in the morning, drinking, and watching the sunrise over the mountains - and then Mark would pop out with one of his marvelous pastries. Grounds were beautiful! One of the highlights was sitting on the front porch one evening and hearing Mark play his guitar and sing one of his sets. We will be going back!

Very nice proprietors!

Mark and Sharon, this was a first time B&B experience, so I wasn't sure what to expect, but we can tell you that the warm and friendly atmosphere you provided made us feel right at home. Everything from making the reservation, to the warm reception, to the room and unexpected little extras, to the beautiful gardens, to the wonderful breakfasts was outstanding. It was an all around delightful experience that I would highly recommend. We wish you both all the best, and hope to be back again!

We had a wonderful stay at the Schroon Lake B&B! It was such a pleasure to meet Mark and Sharon, and their hospitability made us feel so welcome. It is so rare to find the perfect combination of charm, ambience, beautiful lodging, location, breakfast cuisine and terrific hosts, and they certainly provided all that to their guests. Their tips for hiking and canoeing were right on, and we also enjoyed talking with Mark about his gardens. It was a memorable 3rd wedding anniversary get-a-way!

Great location...close to ADK high peaks region and western VT countryside. Sharon and Mark are very accommodating and biker friendly. Wonderful and creative breakfasts. Hope to return next season. Well done!

We had stayed at Scroon Lake Bed & Breakfast before under the prior owners Jane & Jack so we new what to expect for rooms,service,value and cleanliness. However the food was 5 star. Marc is a fantastic cook, no Chef! Each day he said the next day would be better and he was right. We will be staying there for one night in August as we have bussiness in the area and can hardly wait to see what he comes up with for our Third Time Around. We most definatley recomend to all.

Typically we like to be away from the down town areas for some quiet and that is what we found here. Sharon and Mark are excellent hosts and the breakfasts were outstanding. The place is beautiful inside and out.

We were in the middle of the Adirondacks late at night and needed to find a place to stay at the last moment. After reading favorable reviews about Schroon Lake B&B online, we contacted Schroon Lake B&B to see about availability. They happened to have a room left and were gracious enough to wait up for us as a late arrival close to midnight! What a pleasant surprise to arrive at such a lovely welcoming place to stay so late at night after a long day on the road filled with busy vacationing plans. We were warmly welcomed by Sharon, the hostess, and I was led to a delightful, spotless Victorian room. The A/C in the room was great on a hot, humid, muggy day. The bed was absolutely perfect, and I sank into a deep sleep in just minutes after arriving, very much at ease in such immaculate surroundings -- everything seems new. The next morning -- after sleeping in to recover from a whirlwind day the day before (the place was so quiet, it was easy to do!) -- I thought I was too late for breakfast as I can down to check out at 11 AM. I was quite surprised when the door into the dining room slid open and Mark, the host at the B&B, came in to greet me with a platter of fresh fruit and freshly baked muffin made up just for me! It was just what I needed to start the day. Both Sharon and Mark were extremely gracious and welcoming, the rooms are spotless and the dining impeccable. I would surely recommend!

The Schroon Lake B&B was a wonderfully pleasant experience for us. Our first impressions from the beautiful gardens, the welcoming front porch with its comfortable wicker furniture, and the soothing sounds of quiet music and an outdoor waterfall upon entering the living room set the tone for a relaxing weekend getaway. The Mountain View Suite was extremely comfortable and gets our vote for the top accommodation in the house. Sharon and Mark are enthusiastic owners/hosts who make you feel quite at home and are anxious to help in any way they can. I won't spoil the surprise of the breakfasts, but I will say dining on the front porch and tasting "divinely delicious" creations rather captures the experience! Steve and Wendy, Telford Pa

We had a wonderful stay at the Schroon Lake B&B. Our room was much more spacious than the picture indicated, the Inn was spotless and pleasant, the hosts were meticulous and very accomodating, the breakfast was outstanding, and the whole experience was top shelf. Highly recommended!!

A friend and I came up for the Lake Placid Marathon, and found ourselves at Schroon Lake. Sharon and Mark went out of their way to take care of us, even waking up at 5am to get us breakfast before the race. A lovely spot and wonderful people.

This was our first visit to a B&B, and we were thrilled!!! Mark and Sharon made us feel like we were new friends, destined to be old friends-to-come! Everything was above and beyond our expectations. We've been telling all our Canadian friends to run down across the border for a wonderful Best of the U.S. visit! Thanks, Mark and Sharon...we'll be coming back! Sharon and Rosaire Girard, St. Hyacinthe, QC, CA

We were blown away with all the little "extras" Mark and Sharon provided. I have some health issues and they thought to ask me as I registered about any diet restrictions. No one has ever done that for me anywhere else I have stayed! I usually have to beg for food done my way. Not here. Everything is all natural, made on site and no high fructose corn syrup! Yippee!!

From the moment we were greeted as we arrived, everything from the food and its gourmet preparation and presentation, to the beautifully-appointed, clean rooms, beautiful grounds and informative and lively conversation, our experience with this B & B was incredible! Sharon and Mark made us feel at home and relaxed. Here, we were so comfortable, and you can be as private as you would like. In our case, the Pipers were very knowledgeable about the area, which helped us a great deal. This is a vacation spot to visit! We're going back this summer. Eric and Donna Miller

Mark and Sharon could not have been more accomodating. Attention to detail was evident everywhere. The grounds and Inn are beautifully maintained, and the adirondak cottage was roomy and comfortable. Mark made certain that we began each day with a fabulous breakfast, and a homebaked treat could always be found in the dining room. Our stay could not have been more enjoyable, and we look forward to returning soon. Ken and Rhonda

. What a lovely B&B! Clean, freshly decorated, generous room size (the cabin), all amenities e.g.two umbrellas in the room), attentive host & hostess eager to please, ample breakfast is notably attractive, home-baked bread and tea-time nibble freshbaked from scratch, hot drinks all day, large porch or main-house common room or screened pergola for a rainy afternoon, ample deli two doors up the road for take-out picnic (I had lamb on pita). We brought bikes and a good book. Norman, Amherst Massachusetts

My husband and I have had the pleasure of staying at the Schrool Lake Bed and Breakfast twice past year. Mark and Sharon went out of their way to our stay perfect. From waking up to a fire in the fireplace (we were there in the winter!!), very comfy accomodations which included a private sitting area with a refrigerator and a tasty breakfast created by Mark with great care, our stay was perfect. We wouldn't stay anywhere else while in Schroon Lake!

Loved it. Having a separate bedroom from the sitting room was a bonus. Mark and Sharon were the perfect host. Making plans for going back in the fall with friends. greg and susan

We were extremely impressed with the Schroon Lake Bed & Breakfast. Our rooms were beautiful with a great decor. Our host Sharon & Mark made us feel at home. Breakfast was plentiful & delicious. Cookies in the afternoon were a nice touch. We hated to leave. We hope to be back soon. All who come here will want to come back!!! Tracy & Bobby Barrett

Mark and Sharon were wonderful hosts -- extremely service oriented and professional. The Adirondack Cottage was clean, roomy and private with plenty of room for a family of 3 or 4, and a wonderful gas fireplace which is perfect for Adirondack winters. The breakfasts were amazing—delicious fresh fruit and warm baked goods, in addition to gourmet omelets, breakfast meats, and even Belgian waffles with a warm fruit reduction. The afternoon snacks and tea service were just the right touch. Mark and Sharon went out of their way to offer snacks they knew would appeal to children and adults alike, and they were quick to accommodate our schedule. This is an immaculate inn, a great value, and we will return again and again.

Mark & Sharon, were exceptional hosts. I couldn't take advantage of the wonderful breafast they would have prepared especially for me, so they allowed me to make my own meals & catered wonderfully to my dietary needs. I was able to have a worry free & quiet get away. I also recieved a nice discount because I took my kids to the Word of Life Snow Camp. The suite I stayed in was a complete haven. Thanks, guys.

The proprietors were wonderful, friendly and went out of their way to be helpful. The room was spotless and very comfortable. We would stay here again!

We arrived to the wonderful smell of a wood fire and the wonderful greetings of Sharon & Mark. The B&B is charming and elegant all at the same time. The room (Leland) was quaint, comfy, and clean. Breakfast was fit for a king. We'll be back.

Mark and Sharon, the innkeepers, welcome you into their lovely home with the warmest regard of hospitality. They make you feel special, like family. When sitting in the inn's livingroom with the fireplace and soothing music or in your own private sitting room you enjoy the peacefulness this inn provides. The breakfast is served looking like a masterpiece, just beautiful, and absolutely delicious! We have stayed at this B&B more than once and we will definitely be back! Leslie & Jim Ragucci

I first stayed here in late August and loved it so much I returned with my family around the holidays in late December. A great time was had by all! Everything was very clean and the food was wonderful. Our hosts recommended some great hiking trails that were accessible even with the snow. We went skating at the Olympic rink in Lake Placid and took in the wonderful scenery around Schrron Lake itself. I have traveled for many years and to many places and would list these accomidations in my top 3 favorite places to stay. Will definately return again and again!

10/16/09-10/18/09 - My husband and I went away to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary and decided to stay at the Schroon Lake B&B. Having never stayed at a B&B before, we didn't know what to expect. It ended up being one of the best decisions we ever made! It was absolutely beautiful, and we had no problems/complaints at all. We stayed upstairs in The Leland, which has a separate sitting area directly across the hallway. Our room, sitting area and private bath were spotlessly clean and so adorable! The main living room (lobby) and dining room are just as beautiful and Mark and Sharon make you feel so comfortable. They had the woodstove going and there was music playing softly in the background. The breakfast is delicious and very filling. Mark and Sharon make sure you have everything you need and are wonderful hosts. We will definitely go back and have already recommended it to friends and family. Next time, maybe it will be a little warmer so we can enjoy the beautiful porch! We had a wonderful time and can't thank them enough! Margaret and Scott Pennsylvania
