Adirondack Adventure Center Celebrates Tubing Upgrades with Ribbon Cutting Ceremony

Posted: 7/1/2023 - 3-Minute Read

LAKE LUZERNE & STONY CREEK, NY — A new land acquisition will allow Adirondack Adventure Center to upgrade its Lazy River Tubing Adventure on the Hudson River with a private access point, a smoother and safer bus ride to and from the river, a more flexible schedule, on-river tube storage, Internet and telephone service, and trip customization for customers including a private beach and island!

The announcement was made during a ribbon cutting ceremony on Friday, June 16, with the Lake George Regional Chamber of Commerce & CVB.

“These upgrades allow us to expand our business and make it safer and more convenient for everybody to come up and experience tubing and the beauty of our area. One of the things that gets us up and going in the morning is being able to share this experience with everybody,” said Owner Dane Morton. “It’s a huge deal for us. It’s really going to help us expand our business further.”

This acquisition of 165 acres of land along the beautiful Buttermilk section of the Hudson River is the first phase in a massive 3-phase plan to upgrade the tubing experience.

“We congratulate Adirondack Adventure Center on this major upgrade to the tubing experience for their customers! It is wonderful to see our area attractions continually investing in their businesses and growing,” said Lake George Regional Chamber of Commerce & CVB Executive Director Gina Mintzer.

Adirondack Adventure Center offers three exciting outdoor activities; Lazy River Tubing, Whitewater Rafting and Treetop Adventure/Ziplining, at one convenient location.

The completion of phase 1 will allow provide for the following upgrades:

1. A private access point to the river which will allow everyone to get on the water faster and more efficiently. No more having to wait for other companies or the general public to access the river!

2. A smoother and safer bus ride to and from the river. The route to our new put-in spot is entirely on paved roads. No more one lane dirt road with potholes!

3. A more flexible schedule. Instead of 4 trips departing every 90 minutes, Adirondack Adventure Center will now offer 6 trips departing every 60 minutes, making it easier  and more convenient for customers to pick a time to tube!

4. On-river tube storage. All tubes will be stored at the new access point which means customers will no longer have to wait for guides to load and unload tubes from the buses. Less time dealing with trip logistics and equipment equals more time on the water for their customers!

5. Internet and telephone service at the new access point means they will be able to communicate back and forth with the main office in case of weather or other emergencies, making our trips the safest in the area.

6. Trip customization. In the past, their guides determined where and when customers had to stop on the water for a break to swim and for how long. Now customers will be able to stop wherever they want, whenever they want, and for however long they want, as long as everyone is off the river by 5:30 p.m.! As part of the land purchase, there will now be a private beach and private island for customers to explore and enjoy. Talk about getting more bang for your buck!
