About this cabin rental

Located in Pine Plains, this attractive cabin for $194 per night is a fantastic choice for your next trip. Rustic cabin by Twin Island Lake, Pine Plains, NY Sitting on quiet Lake Road and nestled in the woods, my rental built in 1950 is fashioned after a vintage lake cabin. As seen in the pictures, I have dressed the the space with props reminiscent of that era. The cabin offers a well equipped kitchen (no dishwasher), a bath with a large claw footed tub and an outdoor hot and cold shower. There are two bedroom areas; one with a single bed and pop-up trundle, the other a double bed. Both are old-fashioned spring beds. The front sitting room/kitchen area has great views of the lake with an over head ceiling fan (no air conditioning) and a wood burning stove for cooler temps. The property includes Lake front with dock and canoe. Swimming in the lake out front is possible in the Spring and Fall. But during the summer, there is an over abundance of water lilies. At that time, it is good for boating (15mph electric limit) and fishing. There are 3 bodies of water connected. The next called Stissing lake is deeper and offers 2 good swimming options. One is the Lions Club Beach requiring a permit which I provide and the other public entry can be located on the hiking and swimming map which I provide. The scenic hiking trails are around Thompson Pond, the third in the chain of lakes and up Stissing Mountain to the fire tower. The town of Pine Plains is small and quaint New England. It offers a Historic Inn for dining, several other small eateries and a WIFI coffee shop. The food market, Pecks, is family owned and carries local produce as well as some organic. This is an owner shared cabin; I may be there when it is not lent out and keep a permanent bureau and closet with my things. No land line or TV. Good cell reception. WIFI available. There is a suitcase of board games, puzzles, cards and plenty of mystery books. Not winterized, the cabin is closed down in October and opened again by June. Book ahead. Discounted weekly rate.

I found my Aunt deceased unexpectedly and we wanted to honor her wishes. She was cremated in SC and wanted to be returned home and buried with her Mother (my Grandma) in NY. My daughter struggles with anxiety and has Gertrude, her ESA. We needed to find a property that allowed dogs, had the availability on short notice and was located near our remaining family and future business in NY. This property checked every single box! We drove my Aunt up overnight and arrived a bit earlier then planned. (Not sure if it was my lead foot or less traffic/construction then usual). Our lovely host responded to our inquires quickly. She was very accurate in her description of this beautiful lakeside property. I grew up in a lakeside community so this reminded me of home. It was awesome to be able to share these memories with my kids. My Aunt, in a similar home as my childhood home so my kids got a real representation of those memories. The day of the services was very emotional and the weather was terrible. It was cold, rainy and the wind was crazy. We came back to the property, lit a fire in the wood stove and finally took a deep breath. Normally, we would head back down south pretty quickly. We stayed and enjoyed this home. It’s the perfect representation of lakeside living. Dressed beautifully in a vintage style, we used the radio (which was perfectly tuned to an oldies station) and chatted with the neighbors abt the community. Thank you for making a terrible loss more bearable 💜

Cabin is indeed vintage. Adored the outside shower! We will be making one at our home in the northern Adirondacks! Great location-close to town. Nice and quiet.

If you want privacy this is the place! We loved the quiet and tranquility. It is extremely rustic. The “on demand” heater needs to be repaired. We were boiling water for baths… no shower. Also, replacement of both mattress would not hurt either. The rolling to the centre was not optional. We loved being close to Stissing House and Champetre for 2 nights dining out, with only a 3 minute drive back home. In conclusion, if you enjoy camping this is your quaint, peaceful little cabin with plenty of hiking to be enjoyed close by.

Simple yet comfortable, set in the middle of nature, a place to restore peace of mind. Reminded us of Lake Wobegon. Inez's cabin is more than enough for a relaxing vacation.

This cabin is so nice that it has inspired my partner and I to own a cabin of our own someday! Very cozy and quiet, it has everything you need while also going for the authentic wood cabin vibe. The outdoor shower is dreamy and the wood fire stove is perfect for cooler nights. Thanks Inez!
