THE LOCATION

From crystal clear waters and stunning mountain views to world class shopping and dining, enjoy all that our region has to offer, and immerse yourself in a transformational experience in a place that has inspired artistic luminaries such as Georgia O’Keeffe, Samuel Barber, and Marcella Sembrich.

There’s the extra enchantment that comes from all this taking place surrounded by the beauty of the Adirondacks. If residents, visitors, and musicians intertwine like voices in sublime counterpoint, they do so around a cantus firmus that is the silvery shoreline of Lake George.
