Located in the heart of the Adirondack Park, Saranac Lake is a community that is decidedly different—where access to nature exists alongside a vibrant downtown, where creativity and small businesses thrive, and where neighbors work together to shape a strong future.

For generations, people have been drawn to Saranac Lake for its unique character, rich history, and enduring sense of community. Today, that spirit continues to define who we are. We are committed to preserving what makes this place special while embracing thoughtful growth that keeps Saranac Lake welcoming, affordable, and resilient.

The Village of Saranac Lake is dedicated to serving its residents through transparent government, responsible stewardship, and investment in the services, infrastructure, and public spaces that support everyday life. Together, we are building a community that honors its past, serves its present, and confidently shapes its future.
