Lake Desolation State Forest Hotels

"We had an amazing time staying at the Crook Brook Cabin! The entire grounds were absolutely breathtaking. The pond that we could see from our cabin was so peaceful and serene. We enjoyed using the paddle boat and reading about the story of “Brookledge!”. It makes it so much more special to stay in a unique place like this that has history and a story! My friend and I both said we’d love to go back for a long weekend getaway with our partners. We would recommend this place to anyone and would love to come back. "

"Great stay! The place was great and the lake set up across the street was perfect"

"What an awesome trip & James is a phenomenal host. Beautiful house in a perfect location - just less than 15 minutes from the track! We will be sure to stay there again when we go back to Saratoga. Thank you, James, for making this an unforgettable weekend with family & friends! "

"Our stay was perfect. The place is brand new and clean. The host is very responsive. The hot tub was fabulous. I can’t say enough good things about this place. This was our second stay at this Verbo and I highly recommend staying here. It is very calm and peaceful. They even have an outdoor fire-pit! "

"Loved the house and the property! Quiet and easy stay. Highly recommend! House was clean, modern, and comfortable bedimportantly! "

"We booked last minute as we decided to stay a night in Saratoga on our way to upstate NY. Could not have had a better experience! From my initial interaction with the owner, who was extremely responsive, to the exceptionally kind and informed team we met the next morning - our experience was only diminished by our need to get back on the road. We wanted to stay and hike and relax among the pines! Our glamping tent was clean, inviting, with two queen beds, water dispenser (hot+cold), fridge, towels for pond and shower, games, coffee keurig, string lights outside and just the best outdoor vibes with the comfort of home. I slept like a Disney princess the bed was so comfy! There are also places to stay for larger groups - think retreats, weddings, family getaways - like the Tree House Lodge and Noble House. There is a large pavilion that is covered for outdoor dining or even yoga classes. Also, an incredible outdoor chapel with a descending staircase through the pines to a lovely seated area for a ceremony or live musical performance. My friend and I are new fast fans! We are planning to head back and will bringing friends. Book now as most weekends are already booked for weddings in 2025. But weekdays are even better- less traffic! And all minutes away from Saratoga. Win-win!! #brookledgethebest"

"Very low key but has a lot to offer. We will be back so we can explore more and spend more than just a night. Definitely great place for a good price."

"Had a few hiccups but was fixed immediately. Beautiful place had a fun time exploring and swinging by the creek. Perfect for a private family vacation. "

"The cabin was lovely and we totally enjoyed our stay. Thank you, Denise Doty"
