So, here's my top ten list of
adventures to have with your kids in
the ADK (all near Inlet):
1. Seventh Lake Beach: So many secret
spots to explore, it's like a treasure hunt!
2. Moss Lake Hike: Bridges, water, and plen-
ty of opportunities to cool off.
3. Arrowhead Park Beach: Sandy, clean, and
with easy access to bathrooms. And play-
grounds!
4. Northern Lights Ice Cream: I'm pretty
sure my kids would stage a revolt if we
skipped this spot even for one day in the
summer.
5. Fern Park and McCauley Mountain Bike
Trails: My husband's idea of fun, but the
kids love it too.
6. Kayaking the Moose River: A moment of
zen amidst all the chaos.
7. Ferds Bog Hike: I cannot mention this hike
enough! Floating dock paths make this
adventure the BEST for little feet.
8. Driving Uncas Road: Grab some essentials
at the Raquette Lake general store and
don't forget the ice cream!
9. Payne's Seaplane Rides: My boys are ob-
sessed with this, and summer is the per-
fect time to soar above the Adirondacks.
10. Inlet Fireworks on the Fourth of July: An
experience that I could write an entire
book about.
