Lake
Placid, NY – September 2022 / Newsmaker Alert: On the heels of the
Mirror Lake
Inn Resort and Spa’s fifth place polling in USA TODAY’s 10Best Waterfront
Hotels in the nation comes word that its sister property, the nearby Whiteface
Club and Resort, has been named one of the 10Best
fall golf destinations in North America.
“Undulating
greens, tight fairways and numerous tricky doglegs add to the challenges
of this course where no two holes are the same,” penned writer Sherel Purcell.
The 6,400-yard design dates back to 1898.

USA
TODAY made the Readers’ Choice announcement just as the fall foliage season
begins to burst in the Adirondacks of Upstate New York. The iconic Lake
Placid resort properties are less than three miles apart and work daily
to provide golfers an upscale stay and play experience.
“To
have both the Mirror Lake Inn and Whiteface Club rank so highly with a
national publication such as USA TODAY is very high praise,” said Ed Weibrecht,
owner of the Mirror Lake Inn which has been AAA Four Diamond rated the
past 38 straight years. “The staffs at the two properties work diligently
and professionally each day to make sure that golfers and hotel guests
have memorable experiences. This is validation of those efforts.”
The
colors surrounding both resorts are stunning during the foliage season
- so much so, that players facetiously comment that it’s difficult to hit
a golf ball when you want to admire the reds, yellows and oranges that
frame every shot.
But
golf is just part of the Whiteface Club’s story as this site overlooks
the lake by which Lake Placid draws its name. Over the years, the Whiteface
Club has become the resort community of the Adirondacks. It is home to
numerous primary and secondary residences. Its customized housing developments
are luxurious throughout, with amenities to support the claim.
Residents
and guests not only enjoy championship golf on the wooded par 71 layout,
but can augment these pristine links with tennis, distinct restaurants
at the golf course and lakeside, beach, marina, stunning wedding gardens
and cross-country skiing in winter.

“We’re
honored that USA TODAY 10Best has recognized the Whiteface Club (www.WhitefaceClubResort.com)
for the work our golf staff, both on the course and in the pro shop, does
each and every day,” stated Mark
Sperling, CEO of the Whiteface Companies. “It is our mission to overdeliver
on the experience of each person that we serve.”
Similarly,
the Mirror Lake Inn is enveloped yearly by the fall palette that actually
begins changing in late August and extends into mid-October as does the
Whiteface Club golf season.
For
golfers seeking upscale experiences, they can do no better than the stay
and play package offered through the Mirror Lake Inn with golf at the
Whiteface Club. Here are the details: www.MirrorLakeInn.com/our-package/unlimited-golf-package.
All
127 units of the hotel overlook Mirror Lake and the High Peaks.
Once
the final putts have been tapped in, players can replay their rounds in
The View Lounge adjacent to The
View Restaurant, or in The
Cottage Café on the lakefront. Neither establishment issues
penalty strokes for stretching the truth.
