A World Apart on
Upper Saranac Lake.

Eleven rooms. One historic Great Camp. Every meal, every pour, and every pursuit, already taken care of.

Est 1933

You arrive;
we see to the rest.

The Point is an all-inclusive Adirondack Great Camp: eleven rooms of timber and stone on a private peninsula reaching into Upper Saranac Lake. It was the first Relais & Châteaux property in North America and remains the only Forbes Five-Star resort in Upstate New York. Everything is included, nothing is rushed, and the place is kept small on purpose.

Eleven Rooms,
By Design.

Eleven guestrooms. A staff nearly twice your number. The Point feels less like a hotel than a private estate expecting you — and the only schedule is the one you keep.

A Shared Table.
Or Not.

Dinner gathers around a communal table in the Great Hall, a house-party tradition most guests come to love. Prefer a quiet night for two? Just ask. Either way, the answer is yes.

Summer on the Water.
Winter by the Fire.

You’re seeing the camp in summer — mornings on the lake, lunch on an island, an afternoon on skis. But the property keeps two calendars. When the snow arrives, everything turns inward: skating on the pond, snowshoes on quiet trails, a fire in every room worth sitting in.

A Camp of Eleven Rooms. And No Strangers.

The Point is adults-only, reached by a private drive, and shared with at most twenty other guests. Discretion here isn’t a policy. It’s a tradition older than the resort itself.

The Whole Camp, Yours.

For weddings, reunions, and gatherings that deserve a place to themselves: all eleven rooms, the Great Hall, the boathouse, the staff, and the run of seventy-five acres — held for your party alone. The house party, at its fullest expression.

Deep in the Adirondacks. Closer Than You Think.

The Point sits on a private peninsula reaching into Upper Saranac Lake — the same waters that drew the Gilded Age north a century ago. Five hours from Manhattan. Four from Boston. Or a seaplane straight to the dock.

The answer is yes.
Now — what’s the question?
