History

{{stack|}}

The Sagamore opened in 1883, financed by a number of prominent summer residents. It soon succeeded in attracting a wealthy clientele.{{citation needed|date=May 2018}}

The hotel was named after "the Sagamore", an American Indian character in the James Fenimore Cooper novel The Last of the Mohicans (1826). Several of Lake George's nearby islands are also named after characters from the book.{{citation needed|date=May 2018}}

Twice damaged by fire, in 1893 and 1914, the Sagamore was rebuilt in the early 1921. A group of investors including Dr. William G. Beckers of New York City, one of the hotel's early stockholders, Adolph Ochs, the owner and publisher of the New York Times, Dr. Willy Myers, a New York City surgeon and William H. Bixby, a St. Louis industrialist hired prominent local architect and structural engineer Robert Rheinlander to oversee the effort.[3]

Throughout its history, the Sagamore has been a social center for wealthy tourists and residents of Millionaires' Row, the stately mansions along Lake George's western shore.{{citation needed|date=May 2018}}

The hotel eventually fell into disrepair before closing its doors in 1981.[4]

In 1983, one hundred years after construction of the first Sagamore, builder and real estate developer Norman Wolgin of Philadelphia purchased the hotel and restored it. In the same year, the resort was listed in the National Register of Historic Places.{{citation needed|date=May 2018}}

The resort is currently managed by Delray Beach, Florida-based Ocean Properties, which bought it in 2008.[5]

In January 2009, the Sagamore announced that it would close for the winter months due to the economic recession.{{citation needed|date=May 2018}}
