Looking for a chic, cozy escape?
vibe up here: You’re in the midst of the 6.1-million acre Adirondack Park, roughly continuous with the area of the Adirondack Mountains. And it’s heaven.If you know about Lake Placid, it’s likely because it was home to the Winter Olympics in 1932 and again in 1980—along with Innsbruck and St. Moritz, it’s one of the only cities to host the Winter Games twice. Along the way, it transformed itself from a sleepy hamlet to a world-class winter sports destination.
Drive down Main Street and you can’t miss the spiritual heart of the whole operation: Herb Brooks Arena. In 1980, it was the site of one of the most legendary moments in American sports history, the so-called, when a ragtag group of American amateurs and college students defeated the feared and fearsome Soviet professional team en route to securing the Cinderella-story gold medal.
But we’re here to do stuff—to create memories, not relive them—so my family and I checked in at the nearby, just outside the hustle-bustle of the main drag. While the rustic but still imposing structure is modeled on the Great Camps built in the Adirondacks by prominent families in the late 1900s, it actually only dates to 2005.
