Lake Placid Resort Amenities for the Family

Planning a family trip to Lake Placid means keeping a lot of people happy, and High Peaks Resort gives you plenty to work with. Swimmers can pick from four pools, two indoor and two outdoor, the most of any resort in Lake Placid. Your resort charge covers watercraft on Mirror Lake in summer, and snowshoes and Nordic Center admission at Whiteface Club & Resort in winter. For more room to spread out, grab a plush couch by the lobby fireplace or borrow a game from the Lake House Great Room. Every amenity is open to guests at all three buildings, and Mirror Lake, the Olympic Center, and Main Street are an easy walk away.
