Adk Trail Inn

Appreciated being able to be able to book a quick midweek overnight stay online the day of. Never directly interacted with anyone here as I came late and left early. However, the main lodge looked inviting upon my arrival. I appreciated the extremely simple after hours check-in and before hours check-out and was very pleasantly surprised, by the brown bag packed to-go breakfast. Not fancy, but exactly what I needed on my way to the trail. It was also great to be able to park steps in front of my room and not trek in and out of a building. The one downside is that it is right off the road, so you do hear road noise from the room. (As the owners are obviously aware and provide ear plugs.) My room was well appointed with a mini fridge and microwave. It was laid out slightly oddly with the sink outside the bathroom on a weird platform. The only major negative was the super musty smell in the room. Obviously the owners are aware of that too and had an actively working dehumidifier, possibly the smallest one known to man, but it was definitely not enough. The mildew/mold smell was bordering on gross. Also, there is zero cell service here, but the wifi did work well.

ADK is rustic style, but it's clean and comfortable. The shower and bath were fine, parking was easy. Our room had a welcome kitchenette, and a thoughtful bag breakfast was included. The property was well maintained and quiet at night. As described, it's self- service check-in/out. We were only there overnight, but the grounds included a game room, some outdoor games, a BBQ and fire pit, etc. There are attractive flower and vegetable gardens.

Room was very comfortable but paint was peeling and was a bit worn. Walls very thin so could hear talking from other rooms.Unfortunately we tried to go to restaurant but it was very crowded at 530pm so we went somewhere else, it looks nice! Check in was easy and everyone so nice .I would stay again but probably try for the lodge or end room , it would help to have a Keurig or coffee maker in room.PERFECT location for high peaks hiking !!! Cute fireplace outside and swing !!! People so NICE !!!
