Another 5 star; must see attraction in the Adirondacks. if you love this park, you need to see the tools and transportation that made life possible for our pioneers of these forests and waterways. There is something for every age and I have visited several times. A lot of antiques and a large gift shop.

We have really enjoyed coming here to the Adirondack museum. They have lots of great exhibits relayed to the Adirondacks. They have lords of great programs at different times as well, check their website for detailed information. The gift shop is also a great place to do some Christmas shopping.

Well worth the time; we spent half a day which didn't cover the entire "experience". A return trip is definitely in our future.

Lots of information on the Adirondacks. Local culture, history and thousands of items from donations. Info on canoe's, rivers, logging, all the Adirondacks have to offer. Would recommend to friends and family. Children might need a phone or something to keep them busy.

I love how this museum is indoor and outdoor. The additional activities such as the festivals are fun. I also appreciate free admission days for Park residents.

A pleasant day for all ages of 3 generations. The "experience " building kept us busy, entertained and educational. The small exhibits interspersed were delightful (checkers, rope knot tying, etc) and kept us engaged almost every step if the way. The flower gardens on the deck not only served as a great barrier but were lovely. The cafe experience was a little chaotic, we even waited til 1:30 to avoid crowds. Tables outside are a nice touch. We will definitely come back.

A beautiful facility consisting of numerous buildings and paths on the attractive and well-maintained grounds. Multiple exhibits about the history of this historic and fascinating region of America. Plan on taking your time and learning much about the Adirondacks.

We had a great time visiting exhibits of Adirondack canoes, sailing and power vessels of yesteryear, listening to a philosophical history of the Iroquois nation and Mohawk peoples given by Joshua Sergeant, enjoying the scenic vista of Blue Lake from the mountainside cafe, ambling about the site's 32 acres. If your into history and learning this is a wonderful place for both adults and children to bond. It's a bounty for all the senses. There's an interactive 4D canoeing exhibit in which the sense of motion through the lake waters is quite real. The log jam clearing exhibit also utilized an interactive branch used by loggers. There are many more activities for children and adults alike, all in beautifully kept grounds. So different from Disney or Universal, but a total pleasure to experience which is surrounded, unlike other theme parks, not in fake rocks and trees; but rather, by the lush verdant of the Adirondack forest itself. Get your dose of "vitamin N" . Well worth the visit if you're in the area.

Great place to step back in time. Intricate details are on display of the logging business and the men who towed the line. Beautifully portrayed dioramas. An excellent place to bring children and older adults.

Very informative museum about the Adirondack area. Exhibits to keep kids interested. Parking is easy. There's a well dressed food cafe in the back overlooking the lake. It's a beautiful place to visit.
