Description

In 1904 from the proceeds of "Babes in Toyland," the legendary musical theatre composer Victor Herbert commissioned the renowned Adirondack architect, William L. Coulter, to design and oversee the construction of his camp "Joyland" on the south shore of Lake Placid. Recognized as one of the most distinguished properties by AARCH Camp Joyland offers a blend of European charm with rustic Adirondack appeal. The home boasts 6 bedrooms, newly renovated bathrooms, cobble stone fireplace, cathedral kitchen, office, and expansive covered porch. A sloping lawn and pathway lead to a 2 story/2 slip boathouse with entertainment room, large sitting dock and unparalleled views of Whiteface Mountain.
