An Adirondack Mountain Lake Portal
Our 25 Acre Mountain Portal
Pioneering and Old World heirlooms welcome you in. Feel time step back to the gilded age of the lodges in the adirondacks. Our welcome warmed by generations of excited guests and residents when our main Adirondack Lodge served as a post-office, Adirondack inn and trading post.
Generations of our family will be your New York guide. Crackling fireplaces, bubbling jacuzzies, a serene lake-view and the healing woods await you where you can be ferried away from your private cabin door by a romantic horse-drawn sleigh or the eager anticipation of a sunset paddle.
It is yesterday's time with tomorrow's eco-conscious flair
The Lake Clear Adirondack Lodge & your Adirondack Resort is one of the last of its kind. Family built and operated by 4 generations that honor the self-determination, pioneering spirit and love of nature in this rugged and majestic land. Along with the laughter and memories of our guests, a sense of place has been created that is personable, original and authentic. Father's and "Opa's" have poured their imagination, creativity and heart, one hand-hewn beam at a time. Mother's and "Omi's" have tended the gardens and individually prepare each dish for our unique Adirondack Alps cuisine. The newest generation of private cabins and cottages and vacation rentals have hand-painted walls, Adirondack tables and Adirondack chairs built from wood milled from the property.
"Inn"spiration.
The bond of 4 generations in combination with our guests and natural setting, have created our holistic nature. We have become a portal of an Adirondack mountain resortwhere each generation of guest and family adds life to the other. You can feel it as you are hiking in the Adirondacks in the silent woods and take in the aromas of fresh stocks and roasts sifting through the hallways. Today our 25 acre estate is filled with a pioneering spirit that provides a natural foundation of eco-conscious living wrapped into 21st C amenities. You can walk the same untouched woods, see the same glorious mountain-lake sunset as Albert Einstein and at the end of the day immerse in the comforts of hydrotherapy steam showers and warm fires. Our world is carefully hand-crafted in the spirit sensitive to early generations of family and guests.
