We only have a few weekends left for the 2023 months of July, August and September…Call if interested!
LODGING POLICIES
Our plan is to continue offering just group lodging from now on. We will rent both of our buildings – The Guide’s House and The Climber’s Lodge – to self-contained groups/families only. We will not offer any meals. For smaller groups and families, or for longer stays, we will offer reduced rates. Call us to discuss – 518-576-2041.
Because we live next-door, we can talk with our guests outside and answer questions/give advice as needed – especially regarding excellent hiking, climbing, paddling, swimming and skiing options.
Reservations can be made online for one or both buildings. We now have a 3 night minimum for all new bookings (except for the months of May and June). We sometimes are lenient on this requirement (weekdays etc.) so call to discuss. Our # is 518-576-2041.
For those seeking further information, our rates and building descriptions can be found under the Lodging – Group Rentals section of our website – or simply call us!
GUIDING POLICIES
Because all our guides are vaccinated, we will be providing rock and ice guiding through our Private Guiding program to individuals as well as small, self-contained groups such as families and/or friends, year-round. We will continue to offer Group Guiding to institutional groups… They may have to break up into two groups if more than 6 clients, especially during weekends/busy periods. This is the direction climbing is headed in the Adirondacks and is simply the responsible thing to do…We will continue to offer hiking guiding as always…
In order to make the guiding experience as safe as possible, we’ll need to vary from our previous guiding procedures in several minor ways. These include:
- Clients will need to wear masks while getting geared up indoors
- Clients will need to provide their own transportation thus driving separately from their guide
- Clients will need to provide their own lunches, snacks and fluids
