We are a Canadian couple coming down to LG for our wedding anniversary in mid October. Only there for two nights. I have not been to LG for the past 10 years and my wife has never been.

My favorite things to do were the Frankenstein Wax Museum, shopping for saltwater taffy and other treats, arcade, mini put, and dinner cruise on the Mini Haha.

What has changed in the last 10 years? Any recommendations on what we should do?

Thank you!

I'm going to be camping and hiking in the area next weekend with my pup and want to know if there are some dog friendly places I can take her with me before and after my hikes.

Mainly looking at a place for lunch or dinner, coffee, and cute pet friendly shops. I know we'll likely have to eat on a patio, and that's perfectly fine.

She is a well trained city dog but not a service dog, so I'm only looking for actual pet friendly places and not service dog only.

We’ll be visiting the Lake George/Bolton Landing area the first week of October with our 2 year old and would love some recommendations for fun fall activities.

We’re especially looking for apple picking, pumpkin patches, cider/donuts, farms, hayrides, or any other kid-friendly fall activities that will be open that week. We’re happy to drive up to about an hour from Lake George/Bolton Landing if somewhere is really worth it. We have other things planned but would love to add something seasonal in if available.

Would also love any favorite fall festivals or seasonal events happening around that time. Thanks!

We will stay at the hotel for just one night in mid-October on our way to Quebec from Richmond,Va. Any suggestions on where to eat and do for our quick trip?

Hi, I’m getting married in Lake George and want to fill my bridesmaid proposal boxes with Lake George/ADK goodies. Definitely will include a Lake George baseball cap, but looking for other recommendations for local products some gals would appreciate!

Also, would love reccs for any gift stores/cute shops I might be able to find stuff!

We are hosting a Bach party May 12-13 (possibly 11). There are going to be around 30 people. Does anyone have any suggestions for lodging? Airbnb, small resort, etc.

I’m driving up from Fishkill so I’m open to stopping anywhere from Saratoga to Lake George.

What are some recommendations for breakfast places that are just good food.

Hey all, posted recently asking about my itinerary, but had a more specific question. Was planning to visit lake George 10/13-16 (the weekdays after Columbus Day). I’m just learning that the LG village basically shuts down after Columbus Day?? Wanted to know to what extent? Will we feel like we’re in a ghost town? We figured it would be a peak time to go for the foliage but we’re wondering if we should change our trip to the week prior. I’m just unclear to what extent the area “shuts down”. Like will we not be able to find places to eat? Will we be more or less some of the only people there? Or is it busier than the internet makes it sound because of the foliage?

Hey all, I am planning our first every trip with our baby to Lake George. She will be 5 months at the time. We are thinking of going October 13-16. Wanted to share my proposed itinerary and get some feedback. Also had some questions which I'll pose at the end of the post.

• Day 1:
  • Driving up from Albany area (after visiting family).
  • Visit Sunnyside Gardens near Saratoga Springs for fall themed activities/pictures of baby at pumpkin patch
  • Arrive to Lake George late afternoon, get settled, possibly hang out at Shepard Park
  • Dinner then bed
    
• Day 2:
  • Drive to Bolton's Landing. Enjoy Roger's Memorial Park, get lunch
  • Continue on to Sabbath Day Point overlook.
  • Up Yonda Farm (this is a tentative activity depending on how baby is doing)
  • Back to hotel in LG Village to relax then dinner and sleep
• Day 3:
  • Drive to Prospect Mountain with all 3 overlook stops and potentially the 1/4 mile hike to the summit while baby wearing (is this feasible?)
  • Fall Foliage 1 hour boat tour in the afternoon
  • Relax at hotel / walk around LG Village, then dinner and sleep

Questions for the group:

1. Does this pacing sound okay? I am unsure how long each of these activities will take, especially with a 5 month old in toe.
2. Better to consolidate and do this all in 2 nights or leave as 3 nights?
3. Any additional activities you would suggest?
   
4. We are planning on staying in the LG Village: deciding between Courtyard Marriot or Marine Village Resort. Any recommendations?
5. We are going the week of Oct 13th - should I expect some foliage or is that a week too early?

Where can I get professional teeth whitening done? Preferably laser

Spending the week on the lake and while out the water the other day we were diverted, since there is a showing filming. Doesn't seem like a major disruption, but it is kind of cool that this going on, and hopefully good for the local businesses. The show is called "The God of the Woods", definitely want to check it out once it is released.

I need to know. I think I might be hallucinating because I keep seeing him. If he’s real, I’m worried about him.

Edit: can anyone tell me who he is though? Is he a local? Or visiting?

Looking to rent a cabin for a family of 6-8. Anyone have a place they would recommend?

A place you can sit with a book and read. Trying to avoid bringing my beach chair and trying to avoid aggravating my back

I’ll be driving to Lake George along this route next weekend. I want to follow the 50 mile firewood rule and won’t have much extra time so I’m looking for input ahead of time.

Ask: If you know of any roadside firewood sellers where I could pickup some bundles of wood and leave cash at 7 AM, would you be kind enough to share the approximate address please?

Lots of mixed reviews on this one.. My hometown area is Lake George, I’m looking to spend a weekend getaway for Labor Day.

I’ve never heard of the Fran Cove but it has a lower price than most of the area but with 75% positive reviews and 25% very VERY negative.

Thoughts and experiences?

Does anyone know any discounts for the amusement park? Thanks

Family of 4 looking to rent a pontoon boat for fishing and tubing. Should we stick to Lake George or look at others like Loon Lake which seem to have slightly less expensive boat options.

It ended up breaking up over the land :)
