Day 1:
Six Flags Great Escape!
Start the vacation off with this thrilling theme park in Lake George, home to the Comet, Steamin’ Demon and Boomerang Coast to Coaster. Nothing says “this vacation is going to be fun” better than spending the first day at The Great Escape and Splashwater Kingdom!

Pack a lunch and head over to the Million Dollar Beach in Lake George Village, a state-run free beach where you only have to pay for parking. Your teens will have a blast playing volleyball and spending the day relaxing in the sun. Afterwards, go back to the hotel so everyone can get cleaned up for a classy dinner cruise on a Lake George steamboat!

Day 3:
Water Park Fun and Movie Night!
Visit Enchanted Forest Water Safari, the largest water theme park in New York State, for a day of exhilarating adventure with your teens. Whether they relax by the Tidal Wave Pool or speed down the Bombay Blasters, your teens will surely have a blast at this action-packed water park in Lake George’s neighboring area of Old Forge. Top the night off with a trip to the drive-in movie theater in Glens Falls. The Glen Twin Drive-In Theater features two big screens with double features running on each for a night of fun with your teens.

Day 4:
Scooting and Shopping!
Rent a motorized scooter or scootcar and see the sights of Lake George! These scooters are very similar to motorcycles but only require a regular driver’s license to operate. They are so much fun to drive – especially for young adults! Only two people can ride on each scooter or scootcar, so you may want to rent a couple of them. If your teen is at least 16 years of age with a regular driver’s license s/he may operate the vehicle with a parent accompanying, and 18-year-olds are free to ride alone. After scooting around town for a while, check out all the great shopping venues and restaurants in Lake George. Let your teens pick out a few Lake George T-shirts and some souvenirs for friends and significant others.

Day 5:
Tubing and Mini-Golf!
Teens love adventure, and there are few activities that are more thrilling than tubing and river rafting on the Hudson River. Let your teens choose their tubing adventure down the Hudson for an afternoon of fun and excitement in Lake George. Afterwards, head up to Lake George for a guided tour of the Adirondacks… on horseback! This is an amazing experience with spectacular views and a great opportunity to capture some really great photos. (Plan this adventure on a Thursday, and top off the evening with Lake George mini-golf and fireworks in the Village )

Day 6:
Hot Air Ballooning!
Make it a vacation to remember. Your teens will surely never forget the one-of-a-kind experience of going up, up and away over the great Adirondack Mountain region in a hot air balloon! The ride is a slow and steady float, a great way for small and large groups to admire the beauty of Lake George and the surrounding region. Learn more about hot air balloon rides in Lake George.

Day 7:
Boating and Fishing!
Spend your last day in Lake George ON Lake George! Take your teens on a fishing charter trip for a few hours, and let them test their skills fishing on Lake George. Or you could rent a boat and head out on your own for the day, exploring the lake and the various islands that grace it. Stop somewhere private and drop a few fishing lines, or go for a dip in the pristine waters of Lake George. For even more adventure, make it a waterskiing trip! It’s a great way for your teens to remember your one-of-a-kind Lake George vacation.
