HIKING
  • Tip Rating:
  • I loved being in Lake George during the fall because of all the rich tree colors: gold, orange, red. Take advantage of the crisp weather in September and October and go on a hike.

    There are trails for all levels of hikers and you'll appreciate the views from nearly all paths.

    One of my favorite fall trips!

  • This is the second time I've chosen the Beaver Brook Outfitters as our guide. The guides are great, they are reliable, knowledgeable and extremely friendly. They were the funniest guides on that river.

    The Lake
  • Tip Rating:
  • Don't just look at it - get out on a boat! Even though it was cold and getting dark by the time we left, we were glad we took the Lac du Saint Sacrement steamboat ride to see this natural beauty properly.

    We were in Lake George at the end of September - perfect for fall foliage, but not much else. Many shops had already begun to close, and the town was relatively empty.

    Dr. Morbid's Haunted House
    According to the story, it's the house owned by mad waxwork maker Willy S. Morbid, who started using first corpses and eventually live people as the bases for his waxworks. This place is full of thrills and chills, from the moment you open the door and walk down the dark, creepy hallway. You're greeted by a sinister tour guide who leads you through the haunted House of Wax and the surrounding "woods," where you are occasionally harrassed by evil spirits and surprised by corpses popping out of various settings.

    This is one of my absolute favourite places to go in Lake George, even though the first tour I took was so scary I almost couldn't go back. As long as your not too easily scared (and I'm a pretty big wimp, and I managed to get through) and don't have a heart condition or epilepsy, you need to check this place out!
