EXPERIENCE THE ADIRONDACKS

Welcome to the Holly Cabins and Cottages located a half mile north of Old Forge, NY in the beautiful Adirondack Park. Among beautiful fragrant evergreen trees your Adirondack vacation begins. Experience the fresh mountain air, starlit nights and fun filled days.

The Adirondack Park is located in Upstate New York. Created in 1892 by the State of New York in order to protect the water and timber resources of the region, it comprises 6 million acres and is the Nation’s largest publicly protected area in the continental U.S. It is larger in size than Yellowstone, Everglades, Glacier, and Grand Canyon National Park combined. The Park is constitutionally protected to remain a ‘forever wild’ forest preserve. The remaining half of the Park is private land which includes settlements, farms, timberlands, businesses, homes, and camps.
