Dinner Cruises on Lake George
They say complementary views can truly enhance a meal, and the Lake George Area certainly agrees. And the true host of scenic views happens to be Lake George—the “Queen of American Lakes.” The area holds an abundance of lakeside lookouts to bear witness to, but for a truly unique experience, you can set sail on one of the Lake George Area’s renowned dinner cruises.
Traverse the 32-mile-long lake aboard one of the Lake George Steamboat Company’s historic vessels, and enjoy a finely prepared meal as you encounter views of the Adirondack Mountains, Lake George Islands, and other local spectacles—including an absolutely beautiful Adirondack sunset. The 190-foot-long Lac du Saint Sacrement hosts a casual family dinner cruise on Mondays and Tuesdays throughout the warmer months, a more elegant two-hour dinner one on weekends and certain weekdays, and even a Sunday Prime Rib Dinner Cruise. The steamboats also cater meals on certain events and specialty cruises throughout the summer season.
Just across the docks lies Lake George Waterfront Cruises, with their two majestic ships, the Adirondac and the Horicon. On their evening sunset cruises—held daily during the warmer months—select dinner packages are made available, allowing passengers to dine under a golden glow that so elegantly shines across the lake.
