Lodge and The Whiteface Lodge in the top-3 of the Adirondacks list.
"Overlooking
Lake Placid's Main Street from a hill-top perch, the Mirror Lake Inn Resort and
Spa has been an Adirondack mainstay since 1883," states the review on the U.S.
News website. "The resort is filled with exposed wooden beams and cozy
fireplaces reminiscent of the lodges of yesteryear [...] but the views really
grab visitors' attention: The Inn boasts beautiful vistas of Mirror Lake and
the surrounding mountains."
