Why Schroon Lake, New York?
Schroon Lake is a classic American lake town tucked inside the six-million-acre Adirondack Park – the largest protected area in the contiguous United States. Crystal-clear water, sandy beaches, pine forests and hiking peaks are literally at your doorstep.
- Outdoor paradise: swimming, hiking, paddling, mountain biking and waterfalls within minutes
- Classic small-town America: summer concerts in the park, ice cream shops, farmers markets and Fourth of July fireworks over the lake
- Easy travel: Lake Placid, Lake George and Burlington, Vermont are short trips away; Montreal, Boston and New York City are all reachable on days off
- Autumn bonus: staying into the fall means you’ll see the Adirondacks explode into world-famous red, orange and gold foliage
