THINGS TO DO
For hunters and fishermen, our motel is the perfect place to stay. Access thousands of acres of state land via trails from our grounds. The nearby woods are teeming with turkey, deer, game birds, and other wildlife. Take a hike or drive to the Schroon River. Most of the area consists of state land open to all.
For a challenging yet short hike, head to Mount Severance across the road. Enjoy breathtaking views of Schroon Lake.
Mountain bikers are in luck with the established trail system in North Hudson's old Frontier Town tract. These trails also serve as snowshoe and cross-country ski trails in winter. They are safe and gently sloped. Though not as challenging as the High Peaks, they are ideal for casual hikers or families looking for hassle-free woodland adventures.
