I see where I grew up and my owned a resort for many years is #2. We were a couple of miles north of Bolton Landing on Northwest Bay, a very quiet part of the lake. If you like a Coney Island atmosphere with lots of crowds and traffic gridlock, Lake George Village is the place to be. Kinda like Stowe.

The MRV has so much to offer in summer without the crowds. They didn't mention one of the best things.....all the great swimming holes to beat the summer heat along the Mad River and playing disc golf up at the Bush. Lostone is a total disc golf pro BTW.
