With its restored 1920s charm, modern comforts, and walkable location, Hotel Saranac is more than a place to stay – it’s a launchpad for exploring everything the region has to offer in summer.
Discover the Beauty of Saranac Lake
The village of Saranac Lake is a hidden gem in the Adirondack Park – less crowded than Lake Placid but just as scenic, with a strong sense of community and local character. July brings the town to life with farmers markets, live music, art walks, and waterfront picnics. Stroll through downtown to browse boutiques, grab a local brew, or enjoy ice cream by the water.
The Saranac Lake Independence Day Celebration typically includes a parade, community events, and fireworks over Lake Flower – all just a short walk from the hotel.
Mountain Adventures at Your Doorstep
For outdoor lovers, the Adirondacks in July are unbeatable. Hike one of the nearby Saranac 6ers – a set of six scenic peaks offering trails for every skill level. Paddle the Saranac Chain of Lakes, rent a canoe for the day, or take a swim in the crisp waters of Lake Colby.
If you’re looking for a memorable view without a strenuous hike, Mount Baker offers a rewarding summit in under two hours – and it’s only minutes from the hotel.
Events, Culture, and Local Flavor
Beyond the trails and lakes, July in Saranac Lake is rich with culture. Catch an outdoor concert at Riverside Park, attend a Third Thursday ArtWalk, or explore the vibrant works of local artists at Adirondack Artists Guild Gallery.
Looking for a bite to eat after a day of adventure? Hotel Saranac’s own Campfire offers elevated comfort food with regional flair – perfect for relaxing with a drink and recapping the day’s highlights.
