The furnishings were similar to what one might have at home, as opposed to a "commercial" or "institutional" appearance. The man managing the property was extremely friendly and helpful.

As an alternative to staying in Burlington, Golden Gate costs less, has beach front with a great lake view and is not far from the ferry dock.
While the building may be showing its age, it does have a retro vibe and appears to be well maintained. I think having the kitchenette space is not a bad trade-off for a compact bathroom.
Good value for travelers - especially in summer!

Pretty run down, rooms are old but given the price, I guess this was the best. Decent place on our way to Canada

Location and price. Drain a bit slow. Door window could have been shaded more to block out night light. Overall clean and convenient

So nice to be right by the lake! And just a quick drive to restaurants and town. The property is clean and pleasant, but our only complaint was that our room had mosquitoes inside. After some aggressive towel swatting, everything was fine though. I would return just because of the location, the balcony had a nice view and you literally walk right on to the beach from the parking lot.

Came from Canada to enjoy the 4th of July. Was a great location: close to the Plattsburgh city beach and 10 minutes from restaurants/ shopping center. 50 second walk to the McDonalds (convenient for late night).
Rooms were clean (especially the corner room with a window overlooking the private beach).
Service was great!,Bob was very friendly and helpful.
Already recommended to our family & friends and will definitely be coming back.
Bonus: were able to watch the 4th of July fireworks from the comfort of our private beach
