Wonderful stay with my wife. Everyone was welcoming the four days we were there. Centered on the east end of White Lake between Whitehall and Montague so very close to everything in both towns. We brought our e-bikes and access to the trail from the parking lot was great. The king room was nice and spacious. Pleasure to sit on attached deck in the mornings and after being out for the day. Saw many families and older vacationers who rented the larger rooms with kitchens. Would definitely go back again.

Clean and comfortable Inn

The Weathervane Inn is a nice place to stay in a small quaint town. We upgraded to a waterfront room with a balcony on the first floor and enjoyed sitting and watching the area swans. Front desk staff were very nice and accommodating. The rooms are very large and clean. Beds are comfortable. We had a gas fireplace and a large Jacuzzi tub that we did not use. We would recommend staying here if in the area.

Convenient and clean.

This hotel is conveniently located on White Lake...and our new favorite spot for our family reunion. Clean, cool, and relaxing. I didn't use the hottub...and not sure if anyone ever really does any more. I would suggest these get removed for additional space...but it is what it is.

The staff and room were excellent, we have previously stayed and really enjoyed it. We were excited to have a view this stay in our deluxe room, and the jet tub was very nice and clean, however the noise was awful. There were a couple of older men that were enjoying a fire a little too much until 1am. When I had asked twice for them to quiet down, we finally had to ask staff for help. Those men proceeded to come inside and were extremely loud right outside our door. Our daughter was up all night, but thank you to the staff for helping. Just very inconsiderate of grown men.
