Day Trips > Lake George

Lake George is a favorite day trip destination for many who live or stay in the Saratoga area. Lake George Village is the polar opposite of Saratoga Springs - with T-shirt shops selling shirts for as little as $1, The Great Escape Amusement Park attracting daily crowds with its coasters and thrill rides and cotton candy and souvenir shops dotting the main street through the village.

It's a favored destination for millions and adored by so many because it is hard to find a lake more beautiful than Lake George - 32 miles of pristine waters surrounded by the beauty of the Adirondack Mountains. And with plenty of great Lake George hotels to choose from, you can usually find a facility to meet all your needs when you head North.

Just north of the village and also on Lake George are Diamond Point and Bolton Landing - both popular destinations in their own right.
