Schroon Lake: A Rockwellian Village?

Schroon Lake gets a lot of love with a glowing review in the Washington Beacon newspaper. Schroon is described by author Glenda Booth as “a Rockwellian Village” in her story about her summer adventures in the Adirondacks.

Two local eateries get raves: Pitkins “for a real down home meal” and Drake’s, for their top selling dessert, The Ticonderoga Bread Pudding, which “oozes with Drake’s  own warm whiskey sauce”
