If you're an ADK enthusiast with a penchant for Albany history, visiting Great Camp Santanoni (GCS)…read moreis an absolute must! Santanoni is one of the last remaining Adirondack "Great Camps." What's a Great Camp, you ask? The name refers to a rugged architectural style generally associated with the Great Camps within the Adirondack Mountains in New York; the builders of these camps used native building materials and sited their buildings within an irregular wooded landscape. Think: rustic log cabin on steroids. Some even had all the comforts of home, and then some, like a movie theater and a bowling alley. Furthermore, making GCS even more badass is its designation of being a National Historic Landmark; so not only does it have ties to the Capital Region, but it's grandeur and historic significance is also recognized by 'Murica. Preach. Now, for the Capital Region-connection: Santanoni Preserve was established by Robert C. Pruyn, a prominent Albany, NY, banker and businessman. Acquiring about 13,000 acres in the Town of Newcomb, just south of the Adirondack High Peaks, Pruyn employed the distinguished architect Robert H. Robertson to design a summer residential complex. Yeah, that's right, I said complex -- some of us are lucky to have a tiny patch of land to pitch a tent on a crowded lake in upstate New York, but Albany's Pruyn family had a residential complex (at one time, complete with 27 structures!) By the late 1880s, the Pruyns had amassed enough wealth to begin planning a country estate like families of similar social status, but rather than choosing a resort area like Newport, Rhode Island, or New York's Hudson Valley, they chose Newcomb, New York, described in one publication as "the heart of the wilderness." Camp Santanoni has three main groupings of buildings: The Gate Lodge Complex, the Farm Complex, and the Main Camp; to witness its true glory and splendor, one must persevere and make the 5 mile trek from the Gate Lodge to the Main Lodge and hit all three. I've made two attempts to hit the trifecta, with ultimately one success, and both were during winter 2019. I basically trudged uphill -- both ways -- in a pair of snowshoes to get a glimpse of this beauty. The first attempt was snuffed out by fading daylight (we got a late start), and the second attempt was the luckiest, as we made on St. Paddy's Day. GCS is open to the public year-round, 365 days/year, 24 hours/day, and is accessible (depending on the season) on foot, by bicycle, on cross-country skis or snowshoes, and via a horse-drawn wagon (by reservation). (Okayyy!) From the Gatehouse, it is approx 5 miles to the Main Camp on gently rolling terrain, making for a 10-mile round trip Although the Santanoni Preserve is open all year round, many of the buildings are only open during the summer months; however, the camp is staffed and the buildings are open on their designated Winter Weekends (MLK and Presidents' Weekends, and again right around St. Patrick's Day), but it's also a beautiful spot for a self-guided tour any day. The highlight of the Winter Weekends? A roaring fire and hot cocoa in the Artist's Studio. This is when I made my treks, and it was extra special being able to tour the Main Camp with a guide, and warm up with some hot cocoa and chat with fellow hikers. Not feeling the 10-mile round trip hike? Take an easy 1-mile snowshoe or ski to the Farm for a winter picnic. Honestly, I can't wait to visit Great Camp Santanoni in the summer and fall, and even take an official tour, but there was something so magical about my winter visit that I recommend everyone who has the equipment and stamina plan a winter adventure! We are so lucky to have these morsels of American architectural history essentially in our backyard, and kudos to the AARCH (non-profit Adirondack Architectural Heritage) for their dedicated preservation work! Thanks to them, this camp, which is owned by the state of New York, and by association, its citizens, is accessible to all those curious enough to wander. May GCS and it's contemporary ADK cultural sites continue to be a beacon of preservation, and shine a spotlight on ADK life in simpler times, regardless of its grandeur.
