Paradox Lodge — Hotel in Town of North Elba

While spending a weekend up in Lake Placid looking at our wedding venue we ended up staying and falling in love with Paradox Lodge. After getting to know the owners Nan and Red over some wine and delicious food we knew that we wanted to make Paradox Lodge part of our wedding weekend. Fast forward a few months later and all of our family and a few friends were staying at Paradox Lodge. We had our Friday night rehearsal dinner there. It was the best decision ever!!!! Paradox lodge was the perfect place for both sides of our families to get to know each other in an intimate setting. Nan and Red take care of everything, each room is unique too. Paradox Lodge will be your Adirondack...

I stayed in the Sky View room in the Cedar building and it was wonderful. The decor was fabulous, from the bark ceiling to the antler stair railings. The bed was super comfortable and the bathroom had great amenities and a jacuzzi tub. Nan gave me advice on what to do each day and even checked in later to see if I enjoyed my day. The breakfast was amazing too. As you can tell I loved the entire experience! ...

It's a fantastic place, with an accommodating staff, free kayaking and canoeing on Lake Placid, and a wonderful breakfast (ours was sliced tomatoes, eggs, toast, sausage, home fries, and tea). The thing to realize is the decorations are unusual and the house has a very quirky feel to it - unusual artwork abounds, so if you're into a very quirky feeling home, you will fit...
