Make the Most of Your Lake Placid Stay

Cultural legacy and outdoor pursuits

Lake Placid stands as one of only 3 places worldwide to host the Winter Olympics twice, and that distinction shapes everything about this Adirondack village. The 1980 "Miracle on Ice" remains alive at the Olympic Center, where you can still skate on the same rink where the US hockey team made history. The Olympic venues continue operating as world-class training facilities—you can ride a bobsled down the actual competition track at Mt. Van Hoevenberg or take an elevator to the top of the 120-meter ski jump tower for views across the High Peaks. The village's walkable Main Street overlooks Mirror Lake, framed by mountain ridges that draw serious hikers to tackle the 46 High Peaks.

Refined mountain hospitality

The dining scene reflects sophisticated tastes within a rustic setting, from The View's AAA Four-Diamond experience at Mirror Lake Inn to Salt of the Earth Bistro's inventive takes on regional cuisine. Historic properties like the Mirror Lake Inn and Whiteface Club maintain the Adirondack Great Camp tradition with hand-hewn beams and stone fireplaces, offering understated luxury that appeals to travelers seeking substance over flash.

Getting around the region

While the free Placid Xprss shuttle connects hotels and attractions within the village, a rental car proves essential for exploring beyond town. Albany International Airport sits 2 hours south, providing the most practical gateway with major carrier service.
