Our family has been staying at the Colonel Williams Motel and Resort for the last 20 years. It is one of the most beautifully landscaped motel's in the area. The owner is always out there taking care of the property and it shows. The rooms are always being updated and they are meticulous. We have four children and go every... More

I stayed at the Colonel Williams a little while back and had a wonderful stay. I was shocked to read negative things about this resort. Yes, the room was a little small but I knew that before I booked my stay. The whole resort from outside to inside is so well cared for, the grounds and pool area I thought... More

We just completed our third annual trip to Lake George in August 2012 with our two grandchildren and stayed at the Colonel Williams Resort each time. We highly recommend this resort motel for many reasons. The two-bedroom units are spacious and clean, the parking is convenient right at your door, the location is quiet being south of Lake George Village... More

We' ve been visiting the Lake Georgw area for years and one of the main reasons is the Colonel Williams resort. It's close enough to the town to take advantage of all Lake George village has to offer, close to the shopping and restaurants of Queensbury, but yet quiet and peaceful. Relaxing by the pool or playing with the kids... More

Spent three days of our weeks vacation at Colonel Williams Resort. The grounds are beautifully manicured. The outdoor pool,indoor pool and the rooms impeccable. Minutes from Lake George Village...the outlets....and only 20 mins. from Saratoga Raceway. We will definitely go back again in August. We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay.

We made a 2 night reservation on July 10th, gave out our credit card info and out of the blue today someone who identified himself as an employee (Brian) called to say "it's racing season, we have 3 night minimums"!

Dear Potential Customers, I feel the need to respond to the negative reviews written about my parents’ place – Colonel Williams Resort. It disheartens me that out of the thousands of guests we have accommodated since opening in 1974, that the several online negative reviews would dissuade people/families from experiencing Colonel Williams Resort. To start, I would like to address... More

Colonel Williams resort is a fantastic, completely immaculate place. It's beautiful, well organized, and very well kept, inside and out. Service is very good. It may have it's flaws, but as does every place. Colonel Williams resort is an excellent place to take your family, as it provides easy access to Lake George's many attractions.

This place is scary. Very clean, yes, but don't touch ANYTHING. Even leaving your towel over a chair to dry is against the rules. The people that run this place are Looney Tunes. If you want to have an enjoyable Lake George vacation, then STAY ANYWHERE ELSE.
