Stone House Motel & Motor Lodge.

Montcalm Street in downtown Ticonderoga, at the traffic circle where Route 9N meets the village's main drag. The central building is built of local stone and dates to the late 1920s. The family acquired it in 1948 and opened the motel-and-restaurant operation by 1951. Now in its 75th year of continuous operation, the Stone House is one of the oldest family-run roadside lodgings in this region.

The lodging splits across three buildings. The main Lodge holds antique-furnished rooms with double beds, AC, fridge, and coffee maker, plus two-room suites upstairs. The A-frame holds Adirondack-themed rooms with two doubles or a king, some with couches, plus a King Bed with Fireplace room featuring a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace. The motel strip behind the main building runs housekeeping units with full-size kitchen appliances.

The amenity stack is built around the angler audience. Ample boat parking and outdoor electrical outlets at every unit handle the trailer-and-trolling-motor crowd headed to Paradox Lake and Lake Champlain. A furnished gazebo with grill, covered sitting areas, an ice and laundry room, and east-facing motel-strip rooms with afternoon shade round out the property. Best for anglers and road-trippers working Lake Champlain's south end and Fort Ticonderoga.
