"Loved the view and staff"

We had a delightful stay. Would definitely come again! The Lean To was a blast! We especially loved Luis! Hats off to the chef, as well. Never caught his name, unfortunately. So enjoyed sitting on the porch with my drink and book. You have quite a lovely little spice of heaven! Great Pines is a real gem in the ADK! Thank you so very much!🥰😘.
