The Adirondack state park is a vast area as proclaimed by the state legislature. Starting at the South end heading north from Albany on I 87 at exit 24 of the NYS Thruway, (which is I-87 North until exit 24 then becomes I-90 heading west which is toll) Exiting at 24 gives you the Northway which is I-87 and I-90 East toll free to exit 12 at route 9 near Kinderhook, If you stay on I-90 east it is toll and is the Berkshire spur and takes you to the Mass. Turnpike where the towns of West Stockbridge is and the Norman Rockwell Museum. Going North from Exit 24 on the Northway about 55 miles is Saroatoga which is the largest city in NYS by size and has horse race tracks and Historic downtown with its Canfield Casino, and beautiful plantings and a Carrosell. Then farther North on either route 9 or I-87 Northway is Lake George a 32 mile long lake with historic sites, boating, tourist traps, etc. Then to the north and west are white water rafting mountain climbing and many lakes. Bolton Landing at the north end of lake George is where you might see Rachel Ray as that's where she's has a summer place. Typically the no seeums are out until a hot day in July that kills them all off. There are many places to stay in an RV but tends to be booked in prime summer months. Then to the East in Vermont you can see Grandma Mosses, museum, Williams College, and the white mountains of Vermont, with some Ski area's having summer venues.
