Review:
Lake Placid lies amidst the ancient and beautiful Adirondack Mountains, iconified by the tall, dark green pines that line the slopes of the peaks and the clear, reflective mountain lakes that lie at their feet. There are two islands in the middle of Lake Placid , both of which are popular destinations for boaters who fancy a picnic and those looking to spend a night camping. Fish in the lake include trout, pike, smallmouth bass, and perch. Those who don’t own their own boat can rent one on Lake Placid and kayak and canoe rentals are also available. There are also lake cruises offered on Lake Placid, which is a great way to sit back and learn about the area through an informational tour out on the water.
