Adirondak Loj is a historic lodge in North Elba, Essex County, New York. It is near Lake Placid in the Adirondack Mountains. The current facility was built in 1927 and is owned and operated by the Adirondack Mountain Club (ADK). Located on the shore of Heart Lake, it is nearby trails to Mount Marcy and Algonquin Peak, the two highest points in the state. Accommodations include private rooms and bunkrooms, with meals also available. In addition there are campsites, lean-tos, and canvas tents.{{cn|date=January 2016}} The Loj sits on a private protected area of 706 acres that includes Heart Lake and Mount Jo; the preserve is owned and managed by the ADK.[1] HistoryThe original Adirondack Lodge was designed by Henry Van Hoevenberg, namesake of Mount Van Hoevenberg. It opened in 1890 but was consumed in a catastrophic fire that swept Essex County on June 3, 1903.[2] It was replaced by the present structure, designed by Saranac Lake architect William G. Distin, in 1927. SpellingThe spelling of the building's name was changed from its original "Adirondack Lodge" to "Adirondak Loj" by a previous owner, Melvil Dewey, founder of the Lake Placid Club and ardent advocate of spelling reform.[3] References1. ^{{cite web|title=Adirondak Loj - History|url=http://www.adk.org/page.php?pname=adirondak-loj-history|publisher=Adirondack Mountain Club|accessdate=12 September 2016}} 2. ^{{Cite book| publisher = The Century Co| last = Donaldson| first = Alfred L.| title = A history of the Adirondacks| location = New York| page = 27| accessdate = 2013-12-14| date = 1921| url = https://archive.org/stream/historyofadiron02dona#page/27/mode/1up}} 3. ^Steinberg, Michael.
