Culture and Scenery Never Stop in the ADK's


Just when the final glimpses of a perfect autumn have all but faded away, The Lake George region continues to unfold some terrific reasons to visit us including a Wine & Chocolate Festival, Meet Me in St. Louis, Art Gallery Receptions, Music Concerts, Holiday Showcases and more. Of course, our beautiful scenery never stops either-majestic mountains, scenic lakeside overlooks, meandering hiking trails...roaring fireplaces in restaurants! There are activities and unique things to keep you busy...if you want to be! This coming weekend in the heart of Glens Falls (if you have not seen or experienced their renaissance you need to!) there is the Wine & Chocolate Festival on Friday, Nov. 14th held at the Queensbury Hotel. Meet Me in St. Louis a play put on by the Glens Falls Community Theater continues its run this weekend and there is an Exhibition Reception of Prints by Kristine Croso Tolmie at the Courthouse Gallery of the Lake George Arts Project from 4-6 OM on Saturday, Nov 15th.

For more information on these and a myriad of other cultural, sporting and historical events happening this weekend (or any week for that matter) please check out our online calendar at:

It is true we get a little bit sleepier up here in the North Country during non-summer months, some seasonal only businesses are closed, others limit their hours, but for many people that is the best time to enjoy our natural setting, unwind and enjoy what locals know are the real fruits of living in such a beautiful area. There are great rates at hotels and motels, restaurants offer some wonderful specials and as you can see from our cultural calendars "the beat goes on!". Coming for a visit during our slower seasons also affords you the opportunity to "scope out" where you want to visit when you come back during that much needed summer vacation. We hope you visit us soon....we love to share our ADK's!
