Kennedy Cottage is a historic cure cottage located at Saranac Lake, town of North Elba in Essex County, New York. It was built about 1897 and is a large, 2+1⁄2-story wood-frame rectangular structure in the Queen Anne style. It features a 3-story tower set at a 45-degree angle at the northwest corner of the house, glass-enclosed verandah, and three visible attached cure porches. It was operated as a private sanatorium and the National Vaudeville Philanthropic Association sent patients here before the opening of Will Rogers Memorial Hospital in 1928.[2]
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992.[1] It is located in the Helen Hill Historic District.
