Adirondack Rock and River
Thank you for accessing the web site of Adirondack Rock and River Lodges!
Rock and River is a family run lodging business open to all outdoor lovers, year-round. We’ve been in operation since 1988 and are located in the heart of the Adirondack High Peaks, on the outskirts of the small mountain village of Keene, N.Y.
The unique lodging at Rock and River consists of two Adirondack style buildings – The Guide’s House (sleeps 14) and The Climber’s Lodge (sleeps 12). Both buildings are located on our property which sits in a quiet mountain valley at the end of a country road. Open fields and mountain views surround each building with the gardens and apple trees of the original 1800s homestead, evident. Both lodges are rented by the whole (we no longer rent individual rooms) and make a perfect basecamp for families, clubs, schools and friends. The facilities are very secluded and surrounded by thousands of acres of state-owned wilderness. Excellent hiking, skiing, rock and ice climbing can be accessed, right from our door!

We’re sad to say that our Guide Service, after 38 years, has stopped operations as of March, 2026 (please note that our lodging operation continues in full swing). This decision was a difficult one as Teresa and I have enjoyed meeting and introducing thousands of individuals to the beauty of the Adirondacks but with the advancement of age, we’ve realized it’s time to pass the torch. Many of our guides will stay in the profession and we’re certain the future of Adirondack guiding will remain in excellent hands…
An excellent source for information on hiking, climbing and conditions in the Adirondacks is The Mountaineer in Keene Valley.
