With premium lodging at great rates, indoor and outdoor recreation to keep you busy (who says ski season is over?) and award-winning spas to recover and rejuvenate from the gray days of winter, Lake Placid is the perfect spring retreat you never thought of – until now.

How about a NON SKI resort for 81 year olds ????
Isn’t 81 the new 61? Somebody told me that, I don’t know if it is true or not. If I am 60, that means I am really only 40! Don’t act your age. You don’t have to ski, but you can go up on the lifts and enjoy a birds eye view of the area. It is a lot of fun and then you can either hike down or take the lift down, eat good food and just enjoy the beauty.
