An Adirondack motel
Tilly's is a small Adirondack motel a short walk from Cranberry Lake — eight rooms inside a hundred-year-old stone manor, four of them newly renovated. The Cranberry Lake 50 trailhead is only minutes away.
We are not a resort. There is no spa, no concierge, no buffet. We aim for a short list of things, all of them done well.
Stay two nights and you'll start to know the place. Stay three and you won't want to leave.

Everything you need for a slow weekend, and nothing you don't.
Wireless internet in every room.

The Cranberry Lake 50 trailhead is a short walk from the front door.
Hot coffee available each morning in the lobby.
The neighborhood
We're a short drive from trailheads, taprooms, and the kind of quiet road that disappears under a foot of leaves in October.
The town public beach in the Cranberry Lake hamlet, on NYS Route 3 — a sandy shoreline with a car-top boat launch right beside it.
NYSDEC public campground with a designated swim beach and day-use area maintained by campground staff. A sandy second beach for guests not staying overnight at the campground.
A 50-mile signature loop through the Five Ponds Wilderness that circles the entire lake — backpack the whole thing in 4–5 days, or pick off any of 11 day-hike sections.
Our literal next-door neighbors — a volunteer hiking and trail-stewardship club that runs group hikes and meetings at the Cranberry Lake Community Center.
A popular Cranberry Lake hike with a rocky overlook above the lake. One of the classic CL50 day-hike sections.
A historic Adirondack logging hamlet on the Oswegatchie River, home to the SUNY ESF Ranger School. The pedestrian "white bridge" over the river is a quiet five-minute walk.
A trail right out the door
Fifty miles of marked trail through the Five Ponds Wilderness — a complete loop around Cranberry Lake, and one of the only signature wilderness loops in the Adirondacks. Most backpackers thru-hike it in four or five quiet days; most of our guests pick off a single section and come back for a long lunch.
The southern trailhead is a short walk from our front porch. We keep printed CL50 route cards behind the desk, can drop you at any of the three road crossings, and we'll hold a warm shower and a cold beer for you when you finish.
We hold eight rooms. They go quickly between June and October. Pick a weekend, book the room that suits you, and we'll take it from there.
A short, seasonal note from the lake — trail conditions, ice-out, and the occasional off-season rate.
