Where Classes Are Held
We offer classes at our school in Peru, NY and at the Mirror Lake Inn in Lake Placid, NY.
*Carriage House Classes
Classes are held in the upstairs of the carriage house barn. There is an entry door inside the carriage house, please enter and proceed upstairs. During winter months we keep the carriage house door closed to preserve heat and be more sustainable. We will open the carriage house door for you when you arrive and depart.
*Mirror Lake Inn Classes
Generally we are in the Conference Center on the second floor of the Mirror Lake Inn, however, we can move from time to time. We recommend you check at the front desk to find out exact location.
Mirror Lak Inn classes are open to the public, so if you are staying elsewhere we welcome you to come and share our classes.
PARKING
We have plenty of parking. If there are no spaces remaining in front of the Carriage House please park along the left side of the driveway once you pull in. Those arriving first parking closest to the Carriage House.
Arrival time
We make every attempt to start and end class on time. We recognize how structured our lives are so it is greatly appreciated if all participants could arrive 10 minutes prior to the stated start time of the class.
What to wear
Wear what you like. Be comfortable. We have aprons to wear during our hands on classes and if you like them we have them for sale as well.
Alcohol / BRING YOUR OWN BOTTLE (BYOB)
We do not serve alcohol at the Carriage House, however, we do grant a revocable permission for the responsible consumption of beer, cider or wine by our guests if they choose to bring those to our facility in Peru, NY. Liquor and mixed drinks are not allowed, no exceptions.
BYOB is not allowed at the Mirror Lake Inn although alcoholic beverages are available for purchase from the Mirror Lake Inn.

The Carriage House Cooking School and its property are tobacco free, no exceptions.
