Fabulous Memory

Even though it was 4 years ago, my girlfriend and I still talk about the amazing experience we had at Hohmeyer's Lake Clear Lodge. My friend is a hiker and travels to Great Britain every year for country house hiking weeks. But she had every bit as much of an adventure the 2 days we stayed here. We enjoyed the setting and all the amenities in this one of a kind inn. Very inspiring.

Enjoyed our short stay

We were just here for the weekend and the weather was lousy, but it didn't even matter. We attended a cooking class and beer tasting and read by the fire. Just what we needed. We'll be back

Perfect Stewards

Dear Mr. Hohmeyer, May I call you Steward Hohmeyer? Because I think that you and Cathy are the perfect stewards of the lodge and its companion buildings, along with the acreage surrounding them. Your exceptional carpentry skills which provide hand hewn furniture and architectural designs all created from your own fallen trees, along with Cathy’s culinary expertise and obvious sewing talents provide the most attractive lodge experience. That coupled with your devotion to becoming a five leaf green hotel and to maintain a 100 mile food fare places you in the realm of wonderful “earth stewards”, way beyond your local stewardship. Thank you for all of these endeavors. Joan and I truly appreciated the tour. Your strong family heritage and traditions were evident everywhere and certainly enhance the overall effect of your beautiful lodge. It must be such a privilege to live each day surrounded by something that fills you with so much pride, especially after working so hard to maintain and enhance its great camp stature. We look forward to working with you on our retreat

Nature and Nurture at its Finest

What a wonderful getaway for couples, families and friends. Truly this was a great experience and a real lake front location (not across the street) but right there. We should have stayed four nights. Good wine, good dining and great lovely, caring, elegant family born and raised in the area. We saw a red fox running across the lawn in the early morning and beautiful lake vistas, perfect canoeing and kayaking and immaculate lodging.

The Restaurant is atrocious

This review is for the restaurant only, not for the lodging. The atrocious service begins with overblown overbearing hype and proceeds to appalling neglect. The place smelled nice and that gets your hopes up, at first. The food is overhyped and when it arrives the hype is revealed to be... hype. The food is bland, ill conceived, and tasteless. The "crispy" duck was greasy and could have passed for a chicken in disguise. The gravy on the "sauerbraten" (actually a dried-out pot roast that would have embarrassed ANYBODY'S grandmother) was congealed and oddly textured. There was too much of everything and the lack of flavor of nearly everything wasn't made up for by the absurd quantities presented... enough to choke several horses. The rice was poorly cooked. The beer was overpriced. The atmosphere was Adirondack kitsch meets low-end gemütlich. The host was an overbearing clown who seemed inclined to lean over into your face when asking how you were enjoying his slop. DO NOT patronize this establishment if you have any taste or class, Disappointment is GUARANTEED.
