A Storied Location: The Legacy of Fox Farm Road
Our campground sits on historic ground. In the 1920s and '30s, this area was home to one of many silver fox farms that once dotted the Lake Placid region. These farms were both a local economic driver and roadside attraction.By 1973, the land transitioned from fur farming to outdoor recreation, becoming a beloved campground for nearly 50 years. After a brief closure, we are thrilled to welcome campers back to this storied property as Camp Whiteface Mountain—reopening Summer 2025!

Ausable Chasm

Step back in time as you walk nature trails in the midst of a primeval Adirondack Forest. Stroll past Rainbow Falls, Elephant's Head, Column Rock, Hyde's Cave and the eerie quiet of Mystic Gorge. Descend hundreds of feet to walk on natural stone walkways and gaze upon eons of geologic history etched in stone. Add a scenic raft ride and float the legendary waters of the Ausable River through a maze of breathtaking rock formations sculpted over thousands of years by the river's currents. Open since 1870, this is one of America's oldest attractions.
