Lovely, peaceful, clean and welcoming place to stay. So close to Fort Drum, the Thousand Islands etc. Great restaurant on site. Beautiful lawn on the shore with lawn games available and chairs to sit and watch one of the prettiest sunsets I've ever seen. Relaxing visit. Highly recommend.

The word I would use to describe this place is "special". The workers all went out of their way to be hospitable. It was quiet and serene but there was a lot to do. The other guests were interesting and friendly. The restaurant was excellent and service was great. Very positive experience.

Probably the most beautiful hotel during our trip. Newly refurbished, they've done a great job of creating calming , tasteful rooms. Good dinner in the restaurant. They happily accommodated our bike overnight. Serene lawns with adironaks going down to the lake. A perfect stay.

Our stay at the Gill House was very comfortable. The location is wonderful- right on the lake, with lots of area to roam around. The view is great, and pleanty of chairs by the lake to relax in. The restaurant is good, and the staff friendly. My only negative comment is the size of our room. It was extremely small, along with the bath size. There is no room for a chair in the room, so the bed is the only place to sit. There are several much larger rooms, which would be preferred, and if we are in the area in the future, we will check these out.

We walked in and the owner Steve V. greeted us, showed us to our room, explained how things worked, and was so friendly. It is the most beautiful location. The restaurant was great as well as the lake view and sunset. Do stay here if you have a chance.

Room was very nice but small (after all it’s an inn). Staff was kind of one person, pleasant but hard to find at times. Attached restaurant was great, food was great.mattress was a little softer than we are comfortable with. Don’t expect a breakfast, consisted of coffee and packaged breakfast bars

The Gillhouse recently was remodeled. The rooms have new carpet, bathroom tile, vanity, paint or wallpaper. The rooms had new HVAC systems, TVs, ceiling fans and new windows with the privacy shade built in. They room style is modern. The property is right on Henderson Bay with beautiful view of the bay from the back porches and restaurant. Since we stayed late or off season the Gillhouse was quiet. The owner, Steve, showed us to our room and how everything in the room worked. Steve was very proud of the work. The quick tour was a nice personal touch. We ate all our lunches and dinners at the Gillhouse. The food, drinks and service were great. Eating at the hotel made the stay very convenient. The views from the property are amazing. There are great state parks a short drive from the Gillhouse. We also visited Sackets harbor and Watertown which are a 20 minute drive. There are good fishing spots about every 5-10 miles on route 3. Two things that needed work. First, the new HVAC system went on and off, kept getting an E7 error. The system was set to heat and 68F. The in room unit would hum for a bit and then show E7. Second, even though the hotel was mostly empty we could hear everything. The room door didn't shut well. The lock worked fine but you could see the hall light around half of the door. I would definitely stay at Gillhouse again. The style, location, food, and views are excellent.
