Fitness & Gyms near Saranac Lake, NY

“Fantastic Gym. Three levels split into different exercise areas. Two to three of every machine and rack you could want. Clean and organised. I was spoilt, wish every town had this.”

“Paddlecraft launch only because the access point to the water is not wide enough for motorboats / trailers. Paved entry road and parking lot. Parking lot holds about 15 vehicles. However, you can unload down by the launch point and then park alongside the entry road. There is a clean, modern, big privy near the road entrance.

You can paddle upstream to the left about a quarter to a half mile to a beaver dam through the lily pads. The lake is about a half mile to your right.

You will enter the lake opposite Bluff Island. Behind Bluff Island is another Island. Behind that island is the opposite shore. There are also Islands to the left and to the right. Be careful around these islands because it is easy to lose track of your entry point onto the lake!”

“This place is great. It's not an upscale, amenity-filled gym like most people are accustomed to (no pool, sauna, etc.), but if you're in town as a tourist it's the perfect place to get a killer workout in. It seems a bit underwhelming when you first walk in, as you enter into a room with a few standard cardio machines. The next room is another smaller room with about 20 or so standard weightlifting machines. But when you enter the weightlifting room you can tell this place is legit. They have pretty much every piece of weightlifting equipment you could need: squat rack, leg press machine, row machine, lat pulldown, flat/incline/decline bench stations, three squat stands, plenty of dumbbells, smith machine, a seemingly endless amount of bumper plates, and a few bins laying around that have extra pieces in them like curl bars, lifting belts and more. There's also a fourth room that has a bunch of stationary bikes and padded flooring that I'm assuming they do spin classes and yoga classes in, which I've used to do core workouts. They take cleanliness seriously, so make sure you bring an extra pair of shoes. They don't let you wear your outdoor shoes inside the gym”
