Ditto to Lake Placid and Lake George in NY. Another suggestion would be the Finger Lakes region (Ithaca or Skaneateles are so cute!) or the Thousand Islands in NY. Thousand Island region (Alexandria Bay, Clayton, and TI Park) is neat because it’s right at the Canadian border - Kingston and Gananoque are right there and, if you feel like driving, Ottawa (& Quebec province) is very doable...a great city to explore. Rent a boat while there at least for a portion of your stay...the Thousand Islands region is just gorgeous to explore by boat (just be mindful of the border
). ABay has a cute little sandy beach and playground that overlooks the river as well as a little bridge that crosses to an island. Lots of river & Boldt Castle tours out of ABay. Clayton has a wonderful huge pool and a sweet little downtown. Cape Vincent is great but more isolated. TI Park is an historical little village on Wellesley Island with turn of the century houses...very quaint. I am sure there are a ton of Airbnb or VRBO homes on the tiny islands too! You’d definitely need a boat.
