Loon Lake is tucked in amongst the magnificent Adirondack Mountains. In 1892, in an effort to protect the water, timber and natural beauty of the Adirondack Mountains, the New York State Legislature established the Adirondack Park. In the years since, the wildlife and forests of the Adirondacks have flourished making the park wilder and more pristine than it was at the time of its creation. Nestled in the middle of the spectacular Adirondacks, Loon Lake is everything a mountain lake should be - clean, clear, surrounded by trees and full of fish.
Loon Lake is a wishbone shaped lake in Warren County, New York. Its primary inflows are streams that flow from Mountain Spring Lake to the north and Palmer Pond to the south west. With almost 600 acres of water there is plenty of room to fish, boat and swim in the cool mountain water. The lake is full of pumpkinseed, brown bullhead, northern pike and yellow perch. There are also healthy populations of largemouth bass and small mouth bass to challenge anglers. A town boat launch provides public access to the lake, and there is a full service marina with boat rentals available as well. There are several sand beaches, both public and private, along Loon Lake's tree-lined shore.
On our trip up we stopped for a quick shopping trip at JCPenney at Aviation Mall. Then lunch at Long John Silvers. After our journey here, we quickly unpacked. We hurriedly put things away, so that we could get the boat in the water. Aunt Lisa and Uncle Dave enjoyed their first time tubing. After they enjoyed the water show of Andy kneeboarding and extreme tubing! Grandma and Grandpa got to enjoy from the deck of the house. There was even a boat parade we watched.
Next we headed out to Lake George Village. We stopped at a little tiny restaurant named Bill's. It was delicious and cheap. In downtown Lake George, Aunt Lisa and Uncle Dave enjoyed a wine tasting. The rest of us walked around catching Pokemon! We bought goodies at the bakery, and played a few games in the arcade. Back at the house, while everyone relaxed Kathy hurried to finish her school work! BLUCK!
Anyway, Enjoy these few pictures,more tomorrow,now that I know we have internet to post!
