Welcome to Lake Champlain

Warm air, stunning views

There’s nothing quite like the cool summer breeze off of Lake Champlain in the summer. Whether you prefer to stay on shore and enjoy the view or get out on the water, you won’t have a problem finding something to do while you’re here.  

Boating is a popular pastime in the region, and so is fishing. Did you know Lake Champlain has been rated a top-10 place to cast your lure by world-renowned bass fishermen and women? The lake plays host to lots of big-name bass fishing tournaments, so don’t be surprised to see lots of action on the water this summer.

If you want a different perspective, hike one of our nearby mountains and take in a bird’s-eye view of the region — you won’t be disappointed — or hop on a bike and take a tour along our scenic, winding roads. You'll find more ideas on outdoor activities pages.

A full day adventuring isn’t complete without a little pampering, right? Wipe the sweat from your brow and head into one of our quaint downtowns for some shopping and dining.

Wait, there's more!

The sooner you get to the Lake Champlain Region, the better. This history-rich region keeps things lively with reenactments and tours. Make it a point to visit Fort Ticonderoga, the Adirondack History Museum, and Chimney Point State Historic Site. The region also plays host to a variety of events; check out our calander for more.

Still stuck on the outdoors? Swing by a farmers market and buy some of the freshest, locally-produced products you've ever seen, then pack a lunch and start your day!

You can stay in the midst of it all in a cozy bed and breakfast, hotel, or lodge. Be sure to check out the available lodging options!
