North Country Holiday Bed and Breakfast Tour-Save the Date


Over the river and through the woods takes on a completely new twist this December as the Lake George Regional Chamber of Commerce hosts the "North Country Holiday Bed & Breakfast Tour" on Saturday, December 6th and Sunday, December 7th. Fifteen (15) area bed and breakfasts will be completely decked out in their holiday finery and open their doors to ticket holders to tour their inns. From rustic Adirondack Log "Castles" to quintessential Victorian Gingerbreads and Historic Farmhouses, tour visitors will get a chance to see the many varied and unique lodging experiences available in "The North Country" of the Lake George Region. The tour is self-guided with the chamber providing a brochure guide of each property with directions and sample driving itineraries.


Tickets will go on sale through the chamber's office beginning next week. Advance ticket purchases are required. Tickets are $25 per person, $20 for Seniors/Students. The tour will be held regardless of weather. Tour hours will run: Saturday, 11-5 (with some inns open till 7 PM) and Sunday, 11-4. The B & B's on the tour do have limited rooms available for weekend stays at this time. In addition, you can find a myriad of lodging at nearby hotels and motels by visiting the chamber's website at http://www.lakegeorgechamber.com/ This two-day outing is perfect for a girlfriend getaway or for couples to see what romantic or rustic retreat they wish to visit for a future stay!


The Lake George Regional Chamber will be hosting special pages on their website which will show a photo and have a weblink to each of the 15 Bed & Breakfasts on the tour. The tour is self-guided, so ticket holders can go at their own pace and tour the countryside, perhaps stopping off for lunch along the way. The chamber expects the website to be active also beginning next week and will continually add new information and features as the months progress leading up to the tour on the first weekend in December. Support for this event is being provided by the Warren County Tourism Dept.'s Occupancy Tax Event Fund.
