Our awesome lodging! The Main Lodge was the original main building and dining facility for the hotel when it first opened in the 1880s. The downstairs of the lodge has a living room area, an area with small tables (card playing size) and chairs, a small library, a refrigerator and a ping-pong table. It creates a warm and pleasant social gathering area.
The upstairs boasts six bedrooms sleeping a total of 19 people. Most beds are bunk beds, again with each room having its own bathroom. The bathrooms all have a shower stall, toilet and sink with running potable water.
Camp Huntington located across from Antlers on Raquette Lake is a National Historic Landmark. Both facilities are part of the SUNY Cortland Outdoor Education Program.
Our 1st stop...This Museum on Blue Mountain Lake has 121 sprawling acres and over two dozen buildings and exhibition spaces to explore. From feeding trout, to bird watching, to interacting with craftsmen as they ply their trades, to strolling gallery after gallery of Adirondack art, photography, furniture, tools, cabins, boats and more, there’s a lot to see. The Lake View Café, located on the premises is a great spot for lunch or you can bring a sack lunch.
On our way home we stopped at The Wild Center. It is a natural history museum located in the center of the Adirondacks. There is a Wild Walk, which takes visitors up a thousand feet of trails and bridges to the treetops of the Adirondack forest. It’s designed to transform the way we see into the natural world by offering up the perspective of the rest of nature. There are five primary indoor exhibit areas, including the Pataki Hall of the Adirondacks which contains The Living River Trail that circles the hall with live animal exhibits and a waterfall with the center's live otters. There are approximately 50 species of live animals at the center.
