The Adirondack Mountain Park consists of over six million acres,
is almost one fifth of New York State and is larger than
the Grand Canyon, Yellowstone or Yosemite! The
North Country Region is known for Lake Placid New
York and the Adirondack “High Peaks.” The
Lake George Region in the Southeast foothills, is
famous for one of the most beautiful lakes in the world
and includes Warrensburg, Schroon Lake and Lake George
bed and breakfasts. The
Saratoga Region, just south of the Adirondack
Mountains, is the home of Saratoga Springs, a historic
Victorian town with a thoroughbred racetrack and a
world-class performing arts center (Philadelphia
Orchestra, New York City Ballet and Lake George Opera
Company).
Come and be pampered for a Romantic Getaway Weekend.
Stay in unique Adirondack lodging from ornate
Victorian Saratoga Springs inns to secluded rustic
country cottages in Lake Placid. Savor gourmet
breakfasts at one of our bed & breakfasts. Luxuriate in
a steamy hot tub after a day exploring local hamlets and
country byways. Visit numerous antique or craft shops or
take a relaxing cruise on one of the many waterways in
Upstate NY including Lake George the "Queen of American
Lakes".
Stroll through the woods or go hiking in the
Adirondacks along a rushing mountain stream on one of
our many nature trails (or do it on skis or snowshoes in
winter). Take a picnic to a hidden waterfall that even few
locals have even seen.
The Adirondack Mountains are known for natural outdoor
sports - you can enjoy whitewater rafting in upstate New
York, Adirondack canoeing or kayaking, biking and
downhill & cross country skiing. A brisk hike in the
morning after a hearty country breakfast may be more to
your liking. You have your choice of a wide range of
marked trails through the east’s largest and wildest
forest. Reach the summit of one of our 46 peaks over
4,000 feet (or perhaps one of the less intimidating ones
under that) and see the same glorious expanse of
unspoiled wilderness that Thomas Jefferson or Teddy
Roosevelt would have seen.
Each Adirondack
bed and breakfast is unique. They vary in age and
architectural style, from simple farmhouse to high
Victorian. Some are in town settings, others secluded in
the Adirondack Mountains, with no neighbors in sight.
Interior decor often reflects the interests and tastes
of the owners. Some of our
Adirondack inns are furnished with antiques and
period pieces while other B&Bs are furnished purely for
function. Most of the bed and breakfasts are somewhere
in the middle.

Members of the Adirondack Bed and Breakfast
Association fall into three general lodging classes. The
traditional bed & breakfast, accepting under 10 guests,
is usually part of a private residence, with the owners
living on the premises. (Association member owners
always have their own "quarters" and guests need not
worry about infringing on the privacy of their hosts, or
vice versa). Breakfast is served in a dining room
setting to overnight guests only.
The bed & breakfast inn is larger, accepting more
than 10 guests in up to 24 rooms. Owners or
owner-supervised managers are always available at this
Adirondack lodging inn. Meals served to guests may also
include lunch and dinner.
The country inn is similar to the bed and breakfast
inn, with the addition of a full service restaurant open
to the general public. There are many
Lake George,
North Country
and Saratoga Springs
inns to choose from.
