A
pedestrian village in the wilderness
The village of Lake Placid offers a warm and charming setting for your
next meeting or convention. You’ll find accommodations in town to be very
accessible with everything you need waiting just outside your door.
The streets of Lake Placid were made for strolling, and within walking
distance you’ll find charming shops, boutiques, coffee houses and restaurants.
And while we know you’re here to work, save a little time to explore
offerings from vintage antiques and handmade Adirondack crafts to outdoor
gear and designer fashions.
When it comes to outdoor activities, the only limit is your imagination.
Explore hiking trails and lofty mountain peaks or take a canoe trip
on a lake that shimmers like glass.Make the most of downtime on our
cool waters in the summer and return in the winter for a cozy journey
in a horse-drawn sleigh. And because we believe every day should end
with a good meal, we offer an endless variety of dining experiences,
complemented by fine wines and micro-brews.
Make your next meeting or convention an event to remember here in Lake
Placid where a world of possibilities is just around the corner.
