Whiteface Inn Resort & Club Tee Times

Lakeside Garden Weddings at Whiteface Club & Resort Are Pure Magic. As a wedding photographer, I’m always paying attention to how a location feels and not just how it looks. The gardens at Whiteface Club and Resort, overlooking Lake Placid, is one of those rare ceremony spots that feels effortlessly stunning. It’s quiet, intimate, and stunning in its simplicity — a perfectly framed view of the water and mountains, surrounded by lush florals and mountain air. From a photography standpoint, the light here is beautiful reflecting off the lake. Soft, natural, and filtered just enough by the surrounding trees to give every image a sense of depth and calm. There’s space for guests to take in the moment without distraction, and for couples to feel fully present, which is everything. If you're dreaming of a lakeside ceremony that blends elegance with the peace of nature, this space delivers. I’d return to photograph a garden wedding here in a heartbeat. — Julia Starkey, Julia Rebecca Photography

The Whiteface Club in Lake Placid has truly become one of the standout vacation destinations in the Adirondacks. From the moment you arrive, it’s clear how much pride the staff take in making sure every guest has a world-class experience. The golf course is a gem—Perry, the golf pro, along with the entire maintenance crew, run it with such care and attention. Whether you’re a member of 20 years or playing for the very first time, you feel welcomed and looked after. It’s a fun and challenging mountain course that always delivers a memorable round. The wedding venue is nothing short of unrivaled. There’s simply no other place where you can exchange vows on the water with Whiteface Mountain as your backdrop, then step straight into a classic wooden boat with your new spouse, champagne in hand, as your guests cheer you on from the dock. Returning right into cocktail hour is the kind of Adirondack magic that only Whiteface Club can offer. Thanks to Andrew and his team, the dining experience has been elevated to new heights. Both Café on the Green and Moose Lodge deliver exceptional food, outstanding drinks, and service that matches the breathtaking views. The combination of quality and atmosphere makes every meal feel special. Ultimately, it’s the people who make this already spectacular property extraordinary. Their warmth, professionalism, and genuine hospitality are what will keep my wife and me coming back for many years to come.

Golf course in excellent condition from tee to green. Narrow and short course. Lots of trees. Many short par 4s...you can mostly leave your driver in the bag. Enjoyed the course. Probably best golf in the area. Restaurant was top notch also. Would definitely return.

This is golf course only review. The golf course is very, very good - definitely the best in Lake Placid. Unlike the other courses in the area, WF is well-irrigated and lush whereas most other courses rely on rainfall for the fairways and only water their greens and tees. The WF course isn't particularly long, but a lot of it is target golf. Lot's of doglegs. The traps aren't great, but that seems to be the case across the Lake Placid region. The pro and everyone we met were very accommodating. We enjoyed the club immensely ... gets less traffic than the other courses due to the price I suspect.

My husband and I had a superb dinner at Cafe on the Green at the WFC Friday night. We dined in the bar area: a cozy room decorated in the spirit of the Adirondacks overlooking the snowy grounds--including an ice skating rink created by the staff!! The bar was crowded (but not overly packed), with patrons clearly having a wonderful time. Our meal was outstanding. Perfectly cooked, beautifully presented, and utterly delicious. We only recently discovered that many of the facilities are open to the public, not just property owners. We look forward to returning this weekend for some nighttime snow shoeing or cross-country skiing, all lit with torches. We can't wait!! And we'll definitely be back for dinner.
