Stillwater is located on the western shore of the Stillwater Reservoir [ click here for map and directions ]. The 117 miles of shoreline and 45 islands are the campers' delight. We offer seasonal accommodations for almost everyone: The snowmobiler, hunter, fisherman, mountain biker, swimmer, hiker, canoeist, kayaker and especially for those who just want to 'get away from it all' and enjoy the tranquil beauty this area has to offer. The reservoir is 55-60 feet in the deepest area - perfect for all types of boats and water activities.

Our hotel complex has a cozy-atmosphere bar with all popular beverages and cocktails including 25 different brands of beer and many imports, as well as an extensive wine list. There is a game room next to the bar. We offer leisurely dining, overlooking the reservoir. Breakfast is served. We open each day at 11:30a.m., offering a unique lunch menu - (boasting homemade soups). From 5:00p.m. on, a full dinner menu is available, as always, specializing in fresh seafood, hand-cut steaks, prime rib and veal specialties, just to name a few! All including homemade bread and rolls, tempting and unusual desserts.

Our modern lodging is separate from the hotel facility and is very comfortable, and private. Each paneled room consists of two double beds, wall-to-wall carpeting, fiberglass showers and satellite-reception color T.V.

A public boat launch is available. Hunting and fishing make Stillwater a favorite vacationland for the outdoor-minded public. Boat and canoe rentals are available at The Stillwater Shop, as well as gas and oil for the year round enthusiast. The principal fish caught are smallmouth bass and splake trout (a cross between a lake trout and a speckled trout). The remote wilderness atmosphere makes Stillwater one of the most popular canoeing sites in New York State - especially during the spectacular autumn colors - usually the last week in September and the first weeks of October. Both access roads to Stillwater, from Big Moose (11 miles) and Number 4 (9 miles), are gravel. Seaplane services can be arranged at the dock in front of the hotel.

We are one of the coldest, snowiest spots in New York State. Having record snowfalls of 375" (over 31') in 1970-71, and also the coldest temperature in the state of 52 degrees below zero in 1934, tied by Old Forge in 1979. We are accessible to trail 1 and 1A from the Stillwater road which joins the Old Forge network of snowmobile trails. We usually snowmobile from early December through the 1st of April. Because we are located in the heart of the Adirondacks snow country, northeast of Old Forge, the winter enthusiast can enjoy hundreds of miles of endless trails.

Just being able to enjoy the rustic beauty which nature unfolds each season of the year makes Stillwater a special place to visit. Always call for reservations. 50% deposit required on all reservations. We love'em but please no pets. Major credit cards accepted!
