XO Private - The Luxury Travel Collection
The finest online directory for the discerning traveller

Imagine a vacation resort so woodsy and remote, yet so breathtakingly luxurious, you’re actually tempted to leave the laptop in the closet, and maybe even toss the cell phone out the window. There is such a place, and you’ll quickly surrender to the elegant tradition that awaits you at The Point.

Located in Upstate New York, this elegant hideaway occupies a 10–acre wooded peninsula on Upper Saranac Lake, about 5 hours north of New York City. The compound of slate roof houses made of hewn logs, stone fireplaces, sumptuous beds and antique furniture perfectly evokes the grandeur of the Adirondack Great Camps era.

The leisure activities of the stunning resort include swimming and boating on Upper Saranac Lake’s clear water, hiking and biking in the extensive mountain trails, hunting and fishing in season, and Nordic and alpine skiing in the winter, as well as ice fishing, skating, and the whole range of winter sports that the nearby Lake Placid Olympic Village has to offer.
