White Pine Camp is one of the Adirondack Park's most outstanding "Great Camps" - rustic yet elegant retreats built by wealthy families at the turn of the century. Built in 1907 and expanded in 1911 by William Massarene and Addison Mizner, White Pine Camp is unique in its "pre-modern" yet rustic architectural style, extensive landscaping, and interesting history. It was owned by a number of prominent families and served as President Calvin Coolidge's Summer White House from July 7-September 18, 1926. From 1949 to 1983, under institutional ownership, the camp experienced serious abuse and neglect, then a 10-year holding action. Recently purchased by a private group, the camp is now mostly restored and open to the public for cabin rentals, historic tours, and special events.
