Hi, I saw your post on the US boards, and agreed with the poster who said you really don't need to stay overnight.
We have done this trip in about 8 hours..we stopped at Scroon Lake just past Lake George, had lunch in a park then drove on to Quebec City. We left early in the morning and arrived in QC around 6 pm. It is a very easy drive once you are out of the NYC traffic and onto the thruway..We do it twice a year, going to Montreal and that always takes about 6 hours, no more.
It will be a beautiful time to drive up .. the trees are so pretty then. Last year driving into Montreal, we hit snow for a day, same time of year
This is what we do..we just want to get there, so we always drive straight through. But on the trip back, we stop at the Sagamore, at Boltons Landing, for a night or two. We get a lodge, they have a small kitchen and a fireplace with a balcony overlooking the woods and lake. It is very romantic and beautiful. Other than that, most of the hotels motels are closed up there and I think you would not find anything to do besides walk around and look at the colorful trees.
Hope this helps~
