Top 10 Things to do in Plattsburgh, New York (NY)
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.

We traveled from indiana to visit the museum. When we went for a tour today we were only charged $7.50 per guest. The tour went on for almost 2 hours! The tour guide was very knowledgeable! The items on display are priceless! Some of the irreplaceable items were a helicopter, cars, trucks, boats, motorcycles, and motorized bicycles. The museum also had huge bonus displays such as model trains and cars which were incredible! The museum catered to people with disabilities to include restrooms, and golf cart rides to the different museum buildings. It was also nice to see multiple seats strategically placed throughout the museum for people to sit and enjoy the exhibits. This was a great tour with a great admission fee! Must visit!
