You certainly can if you bring a beach towel or a chair. Otherwise expect this to be tailored to the kiddos. That sounds like a diss, but it isn't. You're in the mountains on a family trip with not a TON for you to do, so this ends up being an oasis. Plenty of room and also bathroom facilities available.

I was trying to find a review of whiteface mountain on Yelp, but instead, I found a review of a ski…read moreresort with the same name so don't get confused... it's a review of Whiteface Mountain... Overlooking Lake Placid is one of the tallest peaks in New York State, and one of its most prominent ski destinations - Whiteface Mountain. One of the main hubs of activity, no matter the season. It is located in the NY town of Wilmington, about 13 miles outside of Lake Placid. Standing proudly at 4,867 feet, this natural wonder is the 5th tallest mountain in the whole New York state. With a bevy of trails, this mountain is a prime spot for riding, skiing, and hiking. Even better, the views from this mountain are to die for. There are multiple ways to view and reach the top of Whiteface Mountain, including the Veteran's Memorial Highway, Gondola rides, and hiking. The mountain has 90 trails, with more than 22 miles of skiing and riding. The longest run is the Wilmington Trail, which is just over two miles. Fact: It was home to the six alpine ski events in the 1980 Winter Olympics. The summit of Whiteface offers 360-degree views that span as far as Canada and Vermont on clear days. if you are taking Veteran's Memorial Highway - It's $20 /PP fee. This scenic drive winds its way up the mountain giving way to some spectacular photo ops along the way - including a castle. From the castle, it's a 20-minute hike to the peak of Whiteface Mountain, We took the highway, it's a very easy drive plus we wanted to visit the Summit Weather Observatory, and there is a lift to reach to summit, where you have seen the lift to reach the summit? I have never seen a lift installed in the mountain like this. Lift is for 5 persons only at a time, and takes almost 30-40 secs to reach the top. it is equal to a 24-floor building. Also, the gondola is more fun in winter, in summer it will take you to just an overlook spot, I would suggest coming via highway. In fact, from the summit, you can see this gondola point, it's higher than the gondola point. (just make sure while coming down, use low gears- typical suggestion- but it's important) Parking: ample parking spot, one staff will stop you, provides useful info and tell you how/where to park. One food truck was there serving typical fries, sandwiches, and burgers. Restroom & Git shop - is there too...!!

There's also an elevator up to the peak, if you don't feel like climbing up there (talk about convenience )! You can find plenty of picnic benches up there to have lunch, and there is a food vendor at the base of the summit if you want to grab food (there are also restrooms). My fiancé proposed to me up here and it was the perfect backdrop!

One of the best 46 high peak hikes I've done so far. Giant Mountain is challenging, but doable even…read morefor first time mountain hikers as long as they are in decent cardiovascular shape. The best thing about Giant Mountain is that most of the hike is along a ridge line so you're getting into the gorgeous scenery early on. Time-wise I would plan for 5-7hour round trip with some time for breaks, but if you're a fast hiker you could probably do it even sooner. We caught some wild blueberries on the trail in early August which we ate and got some sustenance for the way up. I thought some of the views on the journey up were even better than the actual summit giving credence to the saying: it's about the journey, not the destination.

With players coming in from all over- approximately 150 golfers playing multiple tournaments over 3-4 days. A pretty good source of income for any public course. THATS NEVER GOING TO HAPPEN. 1st off that you for being open during the current times. Secondly, the older man in the pro shop charging for greens fees was very nice as was the guy tending to the golf carts at the end of the day. Unfortunately that is all the niceties I have to offer. The fairways were mostly brown. The tee boxes were unkept. The ruffs were unplayable and the greens for the most part by and large were trash. Not to mention- the absolutely awful POS who I almost told where to go and exactly how to get there and gave my 2 cents to.. but instead I just let it go as it was the last of the holes and it was decided they HE was the reason we'd never have a tournament there. I sliced a brand new ball in the water and went to get it out. The 1st two balls I got out we're mine, so I dropped them in the ruff beside the water. That's when I looked up to a screaming belligerent nasty POS screaming at me for trying to find my ball- that I had just pulled out. Yelling at me that even though there are no signs indicating this wasn't allowed- he was telling me so in the most a-hole way possible. Telling me he owns the golf course and that he owns those lost balls, including my ball. Stating he uses them for his driving rage, which is also pretty low brow as far as below par driving ranges go. So- 150 golfers at $60 per round and 9 rounds for each golfer at 3 per day for 3 days equals $81,000 not to mention all the money spent on BEER and drinks and food etc. PLUS all money spent in the pro shop on random things YOU WILL NEVER SEE! hahahah what a looser. And if that nasty guy does actually own the course, that I seriously doubt- he can read this and take a good look in the mirror and thing about what he could have done with $100,000 or so... my advice- never play here.
