Things to do in Lake George

Lake George stretches more than thirty miles through the southeastern Adirondacks, and its clear water, islands and mountain shoreline have drawn summer visitors since the Gilded Age, when wealthy families built grand estates along its western shore. The village at its southern end has a busy waterfront with steamboat cruises, beaches, shops and the reconstructed Fort William Henry, while quieter towns such as Bolton Landing and Hague have resorts, marinas and lakefront camps. The economy runs on tourism, second homes and hospitality.

  1. 01

    Lake George Steamboat Company

    Cruises aboard historic-style vessels such as the Minne-Ha-Ha paddlewheeler and the Lac du Saint Sacrement tour the lake, with options for lunch, dinner and sightseeing.

  2. 02

    Fort William Henry

    A reconstruction of the British fort made famous by “The Last of the Mohicans” features costumed interpreters, musket and cannon demonstrations and a museum.

  3. 03

    Prospect Mountain

    A veterans memorial highway climbs nearly to the summit, and a short walk leads to panoramic views over the lake and the Adirondacks and on clear days into Vermont.

  4. 04

    The Sagamore

    This historic resort occupies its own island at Bolton Landing, with a white-clapboard hotel, a Donald Ross golf course, a spa and lakeside dining.
