I grew up north of there, but I know the area very well. Great place to escape to.

We went almost exactly a year ago to Saranac Lake. Camped out on one of their beach sites. What a beautiful place.

I spent 2 weeks every summer at Rollins pond when I was a kid, right past Fish creek. I waited all year to go there. It’s an awesome area, you can never run out of things to do. We’d always reserve the sites with a nice sand beach months ahead of time. Great fishing, mountain biking, canoeing, etc, etc. Saranac Lake, Lake Placid, and Tupper Lake are all great towns within a reasonable distance
