Speculator, New York

Located in the southern Adirondacks, Speculator, NY is a spectacular "all-season vacationland." The village sits on the shore of beautiful Lake Pleasant and offers a community atmosphere amid a vast, pristine wilderness.

Visitors and residents alike will often be found mountain biking the well-maintained trails which lead you past the mysterious Kunjamuk Cave. If biking isn't your thing, don't fret, there is plenty of hiking, paddling, golfing, boating, fishing, backcountry trekking, and sight seeing to please everyone in your travel party.

When you take a break from your latest outdoor adventure, make sure to stroll through the business district where you'll find a variety of great shops and stores like the one-of-a-kind Charlie John's Grocery store. In addition to all of the "must haves" that you would expect to find in a grocery store, you will also find a complete section of camping gear, topo maps, and much more. Or stop into the Speculator Department Store for the classic high-quality name brand products and Adirondack souvenirs that you would only find in a traditional hometown, locally-owned department store. After you shop 'til you drop, grab a bite to eat at one of the many eateries that line the roadway.
