    Always a good time
    Just completed third visit to Lake George. My family always enjoys our trip to Lake George. The area is beautiful and has many activities for the family. We usually stay 5-6 days and find that there are many activities to fill the days. I would highly recommend the Mini ha ha boat ride as well as Great Escape and Revolution Railroad. For ice cream its worth the short drive to Martha's . We usually stay in the Holiday Inn on Canada Street and find it a clean affordable way to stay in the Lake George area. There are also many pretty places on the Lake which I believe we will try on our next visit to Lake George. In summary if you are looking for an affordable, interesting and fun vacation Lake George would be a good choice.

    Great family fun
    Lake George is beautiful and peaceful. You can hang out at the beach or at a local park. The village has plenty of restaurants and shops. Watersports and hiking are abundant as well. The arcade in town was perfect for a rainy afternoon. It's a very walkable town. My words of advice: 1) During the height of summer tourist season, if you plan to eat at a restaurant, go before 6 pm. They were very very busy, and several of them stopped taking carryout orders after 6:30 pm because they were so busy. 2) The Price Chopper grocery store is much smaller than I expected. We were able to purchase enough basics and essentials. However, if you are staying somewhere that you are expecting to cook a lot, you may want to shop at a bigger store in another nearby town. We look forward to returning here for a future vacation.
