Want to get cozy en route to your visit to the Adirondacks? Stop in at this handsome LEED-certified welcome center to learn about this adventure-fueled region. Take a selfie in a chairlift from Gore Mountain or just relax by the faux fireplace with a snack from one of the nine Taste NY vending machines, featuring many local food items. Outside, you can take a load off in—what else?—Adirondack chairs, while the kids can enjoy a sprawling playground complete with a fire tower and zip line. There’s even a boat inspection and wash station for visitors heading out on the Hudson River or nearby lakes. Additional amenities include an animal comfort area.

NYS Department of Environmental Conservation offers a boat inspection and washing station at the facility to help prevent the spread of invasive species and preserve biodiversity within the Adirondack Park. (Call for boat wash hours of operation.)

Taste NY at the Adirondacks Welcome Center is operated by Lake George Regional Chamber of Commerce. Vending machines are open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Customer service at the Welcome Center is available 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, 7 days a week.

Food and beverages sourced from the region and other locations in New York are showcased in nine state-of-the-art Taste NY vending machines. Visitors can find craft sodas, locally sourced water, maple syrup and maple novelties, honey, jams, sauces, artisan cheese, fresh milk, ice cream, nuts, snack, candy, and more.
