Description
The Adirondacks Welcome Center serves as a comfortable, modern gateway to the Adirondacks region.
Food and beverages sourced from the region and other locations in New York will be showcased in nine state-of-the-art Taste NY vending machines. In general, visitors can find craft sodas, locally sourced water, maple syrup and maple novelties, honey, jams, sauces, artisan cheese, fresh milk, ice cream, nuts, snack, and candy. Prepared foods like sandwiches and salads, plus non-food items like pottery, will also be available.
The Welcome Center contains I LOVE NY interactive kiosks, which highlight regional attractions and tourism destinations. For family travelers, an outdoor children's play area with a zip line is available, along with a pet comfort area, free Wi-Fi, cell phone charging stations, picnic tables and Adirondack chairs.
Additionally, the NYS Department of Environmental Conservation will open a boat inspection and washing station at the facility to help prevent the spread of invasive species and preserve biodiversity within the Adirondack Park.
The Welcome Center is operated by Lake George Regional Chamber of Commerce.
