14 Best Hotels in the USA, Canada, and the Caribbean 2026 According to Our Editors | Condé Nast Traveler

"A onetime Gilded Age escape hatch and the last surviving Adirondacks Great Camp operating as a hotel, The Point was built in the early 1930s by William Avery Rockefeller II and still channels a rustic gentility and simpler way of life. There’s (almost) no Wi-Fi, just 11 rooms, and a vintage-style Hacker-Craft for summer cruises; winter days can be spent snowshoeing or ice skating across the lake. Guests dine communally in the lodge’s great hall (stone hearth, twig chairs, and black-tie nights on Wednesdays and Saturdays) on elevated country fare (foie gras, venison), before ending the night by, say, inner-tubing in tuxes and gowns down a snowbank. While fellow guests become actual friends you’ll swear you’ll return with next year, it’s the staff that make it feel like a home: Pop into the kitchen for grilled cheese at midnight (why not? It’s all-inclusive!), ask about local sugaring techniques, and have maple syrup delivered to your room unbidden. When your car’s pulled around for the long drive home, you’ll find a to-go mug of your favorite coffee in the cupholder—because that’s just what family does. From $3,400. —Alex Postman" - CNT Editors
