Great Northern Leg 1: Boston to Buffalo

Arrive at Lake Placid KOA and rejoice. You’ve made it! Celebrate by meeting up with your neighbors-for-the-weekend at an ice cream social, teeing off on the mini golf course, or catching movie night. Take it easy tonight: there’s plenty of weekend for fun-having and you want to avoid camper burnout.

Here’s where the action happens: you’re waking up in the heart of the Adirondacks, steps away from some of its best trails. Grab the mountain bike or hiking boots (or skis in the colder months!) and start adventuring on Whiteface Mountain. When you’re pooped, take the edge off with a beer at Lake Placid Pub and Brewery or cool off in the heated pool before a night full of marshmallow roasting and ghost-story telling.
