About the Lake George Area

Nestled in the heart of the southern Adirondack region, Lake George has been one of Upstate NY's most popular vacation destinations for decades! Surrounded by forested mountains and scenic shoreline, the "Queen of American Lakes" is a year-round vacation destination, offering a great balance of outdoor adventure, small-town charm, and popular attractions and events.

Each season in Lake George brings a distinct experience, but summer and fall are favorites. The lake comes alive in the summer, with water activities galore. Visitors enjoy swimming, boating, water skiing, and kayaking, and some of the area’s best freshwater fishing. Fall is the perfect time to visit to enjoy peak foliage on a scenic steamboat cruise or local hike.
