History
Established in 1925.
Johns Brook Lodge (JBL) was the first lodge owned by the Adirondack Mountain Club (ADK). The property was purchased in 1924, just a few years after the club formed. JBL opened its doors in 1925. The lodge staff take pride in the long history of mountain hospitality that JBL represents.

Manager
I have been the Johns Brook Property Coordinator since October 2011. I started working for the ADK as a Summit Steward in June 2006. I take great pride in helping further ADK’s mission of protecting and promotion the responsible recreational use of the NYS Forest Preserve by providing a comfortable and relaxing place for people stay in the backcountry. When not working I enjoy hiking, backpacking, canoeing, backcountry skiing, and photography.
