Lake George was packed over the weekend , filled with visitors and culminating Monday night with fireworks. Staff at the Lake George Chamber’s office reported seeing cars backed up all the way to where the road starts, branching off Route 9. WTEN reports the 4th of July weekend is a significant benchmark to track when getting an idea of how the summer is unfolding. Some hotels and accommodations around the village were offering last-minute open rooms, but many – along with just about every local Airbnb and Vrbo rental – were full.
