The Trouble Begins with Mikayla Ploof

The Mark Twain House & Museum welcomes Mikayla Ploof to the Trouble Begins stage for her lecture: Digging up the Past – Then & Now of the Historic Hotel Ampersand.

The presentation will follow the rise and fall of the Hotel Ampersand located on the shores of Saranac Lake. The Clemens family visited Saranac Lake in 1901, and while they rented a personal cabin on the lake, they did socialize at the Ampersand Hotel and used it for their address so they could send and receive mail. Mikayla’s presentation will also take a look at what the grounds/resort looks like now.
