Whiteface Lodge

Tucked into the picturesque woodlands of New York's High Peaks region, Whiteface Lodge evokes the **Gilded Age** splendor of the Adirondack Great Camps with its rustic timber design. Just a short walk from the village of Lake Placid, a vibrant hub of year-round activity and a two-time Winter Olympic host, the lodge offers a sense of secluded grandeur within the six million acres of Adirondack Park. The architecture, with its warm woods, antlers, and forest-inspired decor, creates an inviting atmosphere that extends from the common areas to each private suite. Lodging at the lodge is exclusively composed of luxurious suites, designed to accommodate a range of guests from small parties to larger groups. Each suite features a full kitchen and private cedar and mahogany balconies that offer views of the surrounding Adirondack Park. Options range from well-appointed one-bedroom suites to a spacious Presidential Suite capable of sleeping six to twelve guests, making it a fitting choice for multi-generational families, wedding parties, or corporate retreats. The culinary heart of the lodge is the KANU Dining Room, celebrated as one of Lake Placid's premier dining destinations. Here, guests can savor carefully prepared three-course meals, complemented by an extensive wine list and a tempting dessert menu. The dining experience aligns with the lodge's overall commitment to refined rustic luxury, providing a memorable setting for both casual meals and special occasions. Beyond the comfortable suites and dining, Whiteface Lodge distinguishes itself with a bountiful array of indoor and outdoor amenities. The spa, recognized by Conde Nast Traveler among North America's Top 100, offers a full suite of services including massages, facials, and salon treatments, alongside yoga and exercise classes in the fitness center. Recreational opportunities abound with tennis courts, year-round pools, and a winter ice skating rink. During the warmer months, guests can access Lake Placid for kayaking, canoeing, and paddleboarding. For indoor entertainment, a game room, movie theater, and bowling alley provide engaging options, while extensive children’s programs feature arts and crafts, scavenger hunts, and science experiments, ensuring activities for all ages. This comprehensive offering makes Whiteface Lodge an ideal destination for a diverse array of travelers, including multi-generational families seeking an active retreat, couples on a wellness escape, or groups planning a significant event like a wedding. The lodge operates year-round, closing only for a brief annual spring cleaning period, typically in mid-April, ensuring that the Adirondack experience is available throughout all seasons.
