Welcome to Hemlock House on Lake Flower!

Located right on the shores of Lake Flower in Saranac Lake, NY, Hemlock House is the perfect retreat for your Adirondack getaway. Step outside to complimentary seasonal boats, a private dock, fire pit, and lakefront just steps from your door. Walk into town for cafés, shops, and the farmers market, or take a short drive to Lake Placid, Whiteface Mountain, Keene, and the High Peaks. Guests also enjoy a private deck with grills and seating, plus direct lakefront access.

Note: the lakefront sits across from Route 86, so sound carries over the water. Light traffic and boat noise are common, but many guests feel it’s a small trade-off for the convenience of this walkable location.
