A favorite among residents and visitors, the quirky restaurant's extensive menu offers up some of the most unique and delicious cuisine in the Adirondacks.
The Adirondack Park, named for the Adirondack Mountains that lie within its boundary, offers some of the best opportunities in the United States for both recreation and relaxation in a superb natural setting.
