All About

Great Pines by Weekender has a rich history, dating back more than 100 years as a coveted Adirondack destination, formerly known as The North Woods Inn. The lakeside resort offers 29 modern rustic rooms, on-site dining, boat docks, a beach, and a shed full of equipment to make your adventures a reality—it’s no wonder we are regularly voted “Best of the Adirondacks”!

Less than a half-day’s drive from major northeast cities, such as New York, Boston, and Philadelphia, and less than 3 hours from major Upstate New York cities, including Syracuse, Albany, Buffalo, Rochester, and Utica, Great Pines is the perfect basecamp for anyone wanting to explore the nature and history of Old Forge and Adirondack Park. Whether you’re here for the phenomenal snowmobiling and skiing in the winter; a meal at the local brewery amidst the changing seasons; or to experience the hiking, biking, boating, and fishing of a quintessential all-American summer, Great Pines provides all the right ingredients for an exciting, unique, and memory-making stay.
