In the summer, walk 2 mins to our 18 hole Walter Hagen designed golf course, 6 clay court Tennis Center or stroll down to the beach for a swim, tan, lunch or boat ride at the marina. Shop in the many factory outlets in town (5 minutes), tour the various Olympic sites or dine at some of Lake Placid's great restaurants. Ride the chair lift at Whiteface Mountain, peer down from the 70 or 90 meter Intervale ski jumps or take a bobsled ride at the Verizon Center (yes, even in summer). You can also eat lunch at the ADK Cafe or dinner down by the water's edge at the Moosehead Boathouse restaurant. The spectacular new Lake Placid Lodge is also close by.
In winter, cross country ski from our condo, the famous Jack Rabbit Trail runs through the golf course and by our ski center plus Whiteface Mountain is only 20 minutes away. Ice skate at the oval where Eric Heiden won 7 gold medals, visit the Miracle-on-Ice Olympic Center, take a sleigh ride, toboggan run or dog sled ride across Mirror Lake.
