Upper Saranac Lake is the biggest in a tight cluster of (somewhat) interconnected bodies of water near the St. Regis and Fish Creek Pond areas. One may want to consider finding nightly accommodations if planning on exploring the entirety of this lake. There are several islands, inlets, bays, and coves to paddle among. The launch site is indicated at Indian Carry on the south end of the lake - which is more remote. One can also launch from the north end at the Saranac Inn location. Though large, this lake is well separated into unique spaces, allowing new experiences literally around every corner. Note that windy weather can create unsafe water conditions for paddlers.
