If you are looking for a clean, quiet, comfortable, and reasonable ( plus free internet and phone) than this is the place for you. If you are looking for modern, costly, big city stuff then this is not the place for you.

Spent one night at the Northwind, and were very impressed-as other reviewers have pointed out, if you're the type that wants a marbled lobby and chandeliers, this isn't the place for you, but if you looking for a clean, cozy place to rest while you're enjoying the great outdoors, this is perfect. Arrived late, but called ahead and were told... More

We were in North Creek to go whitewater rafting! My first time and something you have to do! We were going to stay with friends elsewhere, but found the Northwind on the way. We're glad we did! Our friends were very upset with where they stayed. When we compared notes, this motel was much cleaner and cheaper at that. We... More

I am a regular visitor to the Adirondacks. I have stayed at many of the smaller motels. I prefer them to the chains. The Northwind is one I stay at often. I may have been there the same night as the previous review. I may have been the second caller about the drunks! They immediately told the offenders to leave.... More

My wife and I attended a wedding in the area and because the reserved rooms at the site of the wedding were sold out, we read the very positive Northwind reviews, and decided to book a room there. What a mistake! This place was a combination of something out of the movies 'Deliverance' and Norman Bates in 'Psycho'. The people... More

we had a great time. the rooms are pretty basic, but are clean and well taken care of. all the necessities are there. the gore mountain base is a beautiful 5 minute drive away. the owner was very friendly and even offered to give me a ride to the base, when i was just asking about a taxi.

Two night stay on a weekend for skiing at Gore! Checked in late due to weather on the way up, no problem. Very clean room, very clean linens and towels. Impressed with the cleanliness of the room. Free phone calls anywhere in the US and WiFi included! Now that is a deal! I will definitely stay here again for a... More

Decent place to stay if you're on a budget.$75 per night is reasonable for a close-to-skiing but very basic, small room that can sleep four (bunk beds) but leaves no room for anything else and I mean storing your clothes and luggage (rooms are SMALL). Our rooms/bathrooms were NOT cleaned once during the week-long stay. Beds were never made. Several... More

I liked it just fine, but my girlfriend hated it. I like to camp, but she's a "princess and the pea" type, so this is probably a good way to know if this motel is suitable for you. We stayed here because it was close to the Hudson River rafting outfitters. It's out in the middle of nowhere, and there's... More
