Inn Details

From the time you arrive you will feel completely at home at The Book & Blanket. Zoe, the basset hound, usually begins the welcoming process with kisses on your way in the door. You awake to the smell of homemade breads and muffins, the aroma of fresh-ground coffee and the soft strains of classical music wafting through the air. A short walk to the Jay covered bridge and swimming hole, the Book & Blanket is just 20 minute from Lake Placid and 10 minutes from Whiteface Mountain. The hiking trails of Keene & Keene Valley are a 10- to 15- minute drive away. And the Book & Blanket now offers wireless and highspeed access.
