GALR

 For our 4 relaxing days in Lake Placid, we stayed at the Golden Arrow Lakeside Resort.  It is our happy spot on the east coast!  (Our happy spot on the west coast is the Del Mar Beach Club).  We didn't want to leave, but hope to return next year!
 It was built by a German family in 1974.  It's Bavarian charm fits in well in the Adirondacks.  The lobby has those huge windows on both sides, one towards the village, the other towards the lake.  Their motto is, "the only thing we overlook is the lake."  Love it!
 We ate at their Generations restaurant for our last night.  I splurged with a surf and turf combo of steak and shrimp- divine!  Below the restaurant is their pool room.  We enjoyed both the cool and hot tubs.
 They also have this little Alpine Mall that exits onto Main Street that is chuck full of cute shops and restaurants.  They also have a night club, but we didn't visit it- ha ha!
