Lake Kora ADIRONDACKS, UNITED STATES


A living slice of vintage Americana, Lake Kora is a movable feast: a timbered lifestyle compound secluded deep in the Adirondack Mountains of New York state, and enjoyed by generations of America’s most influential and monied families. Travellers can now escape to one of the original ‘Great Camps’, built 125 ago, but, until recently, relished only by the owners and their fortunate guests. Tucked away in Upstate New York on 1,000


private acres with its own 500-acre lake sits a legendary Great Camp from the 19th-century Gilded Age — Lake Kora. An architectural jewel, Lake Kora is set within the national treasure that is the Adirondacks, a six million-acre national park. Lake Kora (as with most Great Camps of their late 19th and early 20th-century heyday) provided the owning families and their guests a remote and private retreat. As it was in its storied past, today Lake Kora


is still perfect for multi-generational family getaways or groups of friends gathering for celebrations and executive retreats, with each meal and agenda entirely customised to guests’


desires. Open seasonally from mid-June to early autumn, Lake Kora offers the ultimate Adirondack experience for all ages, with guests enjoying boating activities in addition to tennis, pickleball, vintage bowling lanes, squash, billiards, massages and so much more. With its authentic buildings, Lake Kora’s base


lodging offers 16 quiet and comfortable guest rooms in six separate historic structures and accommodates a maximum of 30 guests. Many original furnishings and fixtures were carved by Lake Kora’s own on-site craftsmen over a century ago. Majestic stone hearths laid with firewood, spacious wood-walled bathrooms with vintage soaking tubs, soft fluffy robes and bed linens, along with various seating and dining areas, all invoke a luxuriously rustic Adirondack feel. Lake Kora is widely known as the most


picturesque, elaborate and secluded of the Adirondack Great Camps. Its location — rich in natural beauty and at the edge of a shining lake — ensure it’s still as remote and secluded an exclusive sanctuary today as it was in bygone days.


DON’T MISS Many guests make an entrance by arriving at Lake Kora via private seaplane or helicopter — only a 90-minute trip from New York City
