Tent Platform Permit Holders
Until 1976, the state leased the right to construct tents on the shores and islands of many Adirondack lakes.
This is a list of those who held permits on Lower Saranac Lake in 1961 created by Duso's Crescent Bay Marina, along with a map of the locations of those permits. 1
Several people whose families had tent sites have indicated that the list and/or map is wrong.
For more information on the experiences of those using the sites, see Platform Tents. For a map of the sites, see the bottom of the page.
