Lapland Lake Nordic Vacation Center

This is a 3D preview of Lapland Lake Nordic Vacation Center in Northville NY. Founded nearly three decades ago by owner-operator and former U.S. Olympic cross country skier Olavi Hirvonen, this unique Finnish-flavored resort is situated on hundreds of carefully managed acres. Its mountain setting, combined with cozy, comfortable surroundings and the warm hospitality of the Hirvonen family, create an idyllic setting for recreation and relaxation every season of the year. 70-acre spring fed Woods Lake boasts a sandy beach with superb swimming, canoeing, row-boating and fishing. The absence of motors and virtually undeveloped shorelines provide a tranquil setting inviting to loons, ducks, beaver, herons and the like. Forests of hardwood and pine, mountain streams and wildlife sightings offer guests a unique opportunity to interact with our natural environment. Biking and hiking are popular pursuits. Crisp autumn temperatures create spectacular foliage displays and presage winter's return. Abundant natural snowfalls combined with impeccable grooming performed with state-of-the-art snowcats ensures cross country skiers a superb winter experience. Expertly designed trails appeal to all skiers from novices to experts, using classical or skating techniques. Visitors also delight in snowshoeing, ice-skating, tubing, sledding and kicksledding along with special events throughout the winter season.
