Cancellation

For any reservation cancellation (excluding bookings made on a non-refundable rate), we must receive 48 hours notice prior to your confirmed arrival to avoid any penalties at Laurel Lake Placid. If any cancellation is made within 48 hours of your stay, regardless of the reason, a charge of 1-night room and tax will be applied (though you are always welcome to send a friend or family member in your place).

Any change-of-dates request (including shortening a reservation) must be made 48 hours prior to your confirmed arrival and is subject to availability and minimum stay restrictions. Within 48 hours prior to arrival, deposits are non-refundable and no changes can be made to the reservation. After check-in, a shortened stay will remain charged in full per the original reservation.

A "No-show" fee is applied to non-cancelled reservations. A refund will be provided to the method of payment on file for the reservation, less a 1 night fee of room & tax.

For group room blocks of four rooms or more, please refer to the group contract for the applicable cancellation policy.

Dog policies:

  • Dogs are the only pets allowed, and they must never be left in a guest room alone.
  • While we love our pets, not all of our guests feel the same way. For this reason, dogs are permitted only in the exterior common areas, and they must stay on leash. Dogs are never permitted in interior public spaces.
  • As a condition of reserving a room at our hotel, you agree to pay a $250.00 fee if any pets are found in rooms not designated as dog-friendly or if your animal causes stains or damage to a pet-friendly guest room.

Housekeeping

Laurel Lake Placid offers our guests a daily light touch housekeeping service of their room. Full-service housekeeping of your room is always available upon request. 

Alcohol Policy

Whether or not we sell alcohol on the premises, guests must be 21 years of age or older to consume alcohol. As our common spaces are used by all guests, we ask everyone to drink responsibly and be considerate of others around them.

Non-Smoking

Laurel Lake Placid are 100% smoke, vape, and flame-free. A $250 cleaning surcharge will be imposed on any room where guests have burned candles, smoked (including e-cigarettes), or vaped in their room or anywhere on property.

Firearm Policy

At our hotels, we prioritize the safety and comfort of our guests and staff. To ensure everyone's well-being, we have a policy regarding firearms on our premises. We understand that guests may have valid reasons for possessing firearms, so our policy aims to balance safety and respect for legal rights. For the safety of all, we do not permit the open carry of firearms on our property, regardless of local laws.

While we respect the rights of guests who are legally allowed to have firearms, we require them to follow specific guidelines:

  • Firearms must be securely stored in a locked, hard-sided container provided by the guest while on our property.
  • When not in use, firearms should be safely stored in the guest's room or vehicle.
  • Failure to comply may result in being asked to leave the hotel.

This policy applies to all guests, except for on-duty law enforcement and military personnel.  For any inquiries about this policy, feel free to contact our VP of Operations for Lark Hotels.  We're here to ensure a safe and enjoyable stay for everyone.

Guest Responsibility

While accidents do happen, guests will be financially responsible for damage due to gross negligence.
