Overview
Whiteface Lodge exudes a warm, cozy atmosphere. Exposed wood beams, pine dining chairs, granite hearths, mounted animal heads and chandeliers crafted out of deer antlers deck the lodge. And the list of rustic touches goes on and on. Families flock to Whiteface for the mélange of kid-friendly entertainment, including a 56-seat surround-sound movie theater, a 10-pin bowling alley and a game room chock-full of foosball and air hockey tables. And the inviting accommodations are a big hit, too, thanks to amenities like full kitchens and European-style laundry units. Recent travelers also appreciate the suites' Adirondack-style accents, custom-designed pillows and private balconies overlooking the surrounding mountain landscape. The culinary offerings available at KANU dining room and lounge, as well as the shakes and swirls available at the Old Fashion Ice Cream Parlor, receive high praise from previous visitors as well, though others caution that high-season rates are pricey.

Inside the suites, it’s all wood—like a summer camp cabin all grown up—with cast-iron gas fireplace, slate floors, wood paneling, and custom alderwood cabinetry, plus a private cedar-and-mahogany balcony for maximum viewing pleasure.
The Whiteface Lodge was conceived and built by a former Olympian, and the hotel staffs includes several Olympic hopefuls and recent Olympians.
Inspired by the Adirondacks Great Camps of the 1920s that served as refuges for the Gilded Era titans of industry, this upscale lodge on Lake Placid is the perfect marriage of grandeur and coziness.
