White Pine Camp

Top choice in The Adirondacks


This collection of rustic cabins set amid the forest on scenic Osgood Pond is a truly idyllic retreat. Ski equipment, canoe and kayak use is included in the room rate. Rooms in the main lodge building (the only spot with wi-fi) are available year-round, but most of the property is open only May to October.

Make sure to explore the islands in the lake, where you can find a teahouse and antique bowling alley. President Calvin Coolidge spent the summer here in 1926 and you can sleep in the same bed in the charming President's cottage. Historic tours are open to nonguests on select days from mid-June to September.
