In summer, we spend our days hiking Mt Baker, Ampersand or any of the "Saranac 6" peaks. The beach is next door...or...swim, canoe and kayak from our dock in the back yard, right on Lake Colby! Mountain and road biking (rentals in town), horseback riding, boating (rentals on Lower Saranac Lake 1 mile away)...there is so much to do and see all year round! Saranac Lake and Lake Placid are hosts to many summer events, including the Horse Show, Can Am Rugby, Iron-Man Lake Placid, Lacrosse Festival, Farmer’s Market on Lake Flower and much more.
In the winter, we spend our days cross country skiing & snow shoeing at nearby Dewey Mtn, Mt. Van Hovenberg or Cascade Lakes. We sled at SLHS field or our secret place out in the woods (we will share it with you!). Ice skating on the lake or on the oval at Mirror Lake in Lake Placid. Downhill skiing at Whiteface, Titus and Mt. Pisgah (1/4 mile away !). Snowmobile trails C7 and C7B accessible from the house! Extreme snow tubing and Bobsled rides at the Olympic facilities. Plenty to do in town....Bitters & Bones for tapas plates, entertainment and games, The Waterhole for concerts, Casa Del Sol for incredible north country Mexican food! Don't miss all the fun at Winter Carnival during the 2nd week of February each year!
