If your don’t have access to a boat on your vacation -- and you’d like to get out on the lake --the Schroon Lake Boat Tour, is a great way to get a view you may not have seen before. But the real reason for the tour is to learn about Schroon’s fascinating history.

The tour is full of rich details about the town’s grandest days, when guests would arrive to lakeside resorts via steamboat, after a horse and carriage picked them up after a long train rides from New York. 11am.Get your tickets in advance from the Schroon Lake Chamber Office.
