VERY reasonably priced. About an hour, start to finish. Jim was a great instructor, telling fabulous Dad jokes! He had the big pieces, which needed to be cut, or ones he had cut already which you just scoop up. He explained that he started offering those for his group of special adults. It makes things more accessible for them. This would also help smaller children. He was a really great guy, and a fantastic family activity, even with two teenagers! There was even an area set up for "fancy" pictures! There was a scent called monkey fart!

I don’t have a favorite part of the experience the whole experience is absolutely amazing! We enjoyed ourselves very much the only thing we regret was not booking the 2 hour tour. I highly recommend snowmobiling to everyone. This is our new winter getaway. Our tour guide was very nice also. Can’t wait till next year to book our tour again!

Stopped in and tried the tasting deal of 3 liquors for 5 dollars and you keep the shot glass! As a bourbon man, I tried the two bourbon offerings and the rye. All were excellent and distinctive. The others I was with tried other offerings (cinnamon whisky and moonshine) and other than the smoke one, enjoyed them all. All varieties are there for purchase at under $30 a bottle. If you want to sample several different liquors, this is your place!
7. Shelving Rock Falls

A serene and beautiful waterfall located along an unmarked hiking trail in the Lake George system.
Reviewed By Nancy-in-NYC
We make a trip to Lake George every summer and this is my new top pick for BEST hike in the area, because there is such a big pay-off at the end! Start with the hike to Shelving Rock Summit, parking in lot # 3 or #4 on Shelving Rock Road. It took my family of four (kids ages 12 and 14) about 45 minutes to reach the summit, stopping along the way a bit to look around. Very nice hike (easy to moderate) with a pretty viewpoint at the end. After making it back down, you should continue down the road just a short bit past parking lot #4 and look for a metal gate/barrier on the left side of the road-- this is the start of the path to Shelving Rock Falls. Do NOT miss this... it was the highlight of our hike that day! In just a short walk on an unmarked dirt path, you will quickly reach a gorgeous waterfall with several different rocky spots to take a dip in your own private swimming hole! It was so fun and refreshing after the hike-- really memorable! TIP: We realized it would have been really helpful to have had water shoes in our backpacks for this... there are lots of rocks to climb around on, in and out of the water which is so much fun, and water shoes would have helped with navigating around on the rocks (some very slippery).
8. Prospect Mountain

A 2,030-foot mountain in Lake George that offers trips to the summit in "viewmobile" vans for awesome views.
Reviewed By DouglasB2068 - Stone Ridge, United States
It doesn't get a lot of attention but people should definitely take a drive up Prospect Mountain auto road at least one. There are several scenic overlooks to pull over at and take pictures. Once you get to the top parking lot there are bathrooms as well. From the top parking lot you can either hike a pretty steep trail up to the summit or wait for the shuttle bus that constantly runs back and forth between the parking lot and the summit. We took the bus up and then walked the trail back down. Great views up at the summit plus the remains of a cable car system that used to run from the top of the mountain down to Lake George Village. Definitely recommended.
