Adirondack chair

Slatted porch lounger

An Adirondack chair is a wide wooden outdoor chair with a high slatted back that angles rearward and broad flat armrests.

The seat sits low to the ground, making it comfortable for lounging but sometimes difficult to exit.

Originally designed in upstate New York's Adirondack Mountains, the style remains popular for porches, patios, and lakeside settings: a row of Adirondack chairs facing the water.
