7 Outdoor Activities in Plattsburgh That You Shouldn't Miss

May 6, 2022 Hector Krause

Sitting only 18 miles South of the US border with Quebec, Plattsburgh was once a major hub in the fur trade with Montreal. The city is made for walking, full of beautiful turn of the century buildings and manicured parks. A River Walk follows the Saranac River as it cuts through town, ending at the shores of Lake Champlain, home to Champy, the American cousin of the Loch Ness Monster. The surrounding area is part of Adirondack Park, America's largest wilderness preserve outside of Alaska.

Third time here. This place deserves more recognition than it receives. The cabins are perfectly located and have everything you need. You will need to minimize what you bring because the only way to get your belongings there is via golf cart. However, that minimal sacrifice is made up with the view of Lake Champlain and for a golfer there is truly no better deal than what you get here for the money. A total win every time all the way around. We will continue to come back every year!!
