This location was perfect for a family of 4-6. There is a dock to keep your boat in the water during your stay with a state boat launch 1/2 mile from the house! You get your exercise walking to and from the dock! Very peaceful lake getaway! Would and probably will book again

We had a fantastic weekend here! The house was exactly as described and the perfect size for our group (4 adults + 1 toddler). The living space was very comfortable and we loved having meals on the deck. The kitchen had anything we could think to need. The walk to the lake was steep, but totally manageable and the lake was beautiful. The host was incredibly responsive and accommodating, going above and beyond to make sure we had what we needed, while still being very respectful of our space. We had a great time and would definitely stay again.

What a beautiful place, and perfect location. Everything you need is there. Kim and Henry are the best. Attention to detail is second nature to them. See you soon.

Kim and Henry are great friendly hosts and have an amazing lakeside cabin.
We chilled out all week with deer and wild Turkey wandering past and enjoyed the lake access every day
The property is well equipped with more than enough towels and a cupboard full of cooking and kitchen equipment. More than enough crockery and cutlery for everyone.
Both beds are comfortable, quiet and the AC units work well in high summer temperatures
I’d love to stay again if we’re back in the Adirondacks

Great Adirondack Experience
Great modernized Cabin. Clean, all kitchen items on the new side - pots/pans, plates...
Plenty of closet space in the bedrooms but no dressers other then nightstand with drawers but closets more then enough to hang clothes and for storage.
All indoor and outdoor furnishings very comfortable, has a nice but smaller deck with new grill.
Two bedrooms and two couches in the living room so more then 5 gets crowded.
Owners super nice, gracious and happy to answer any and all questions.
Great dock but the issue we had was trip to the dock was a bit of a walk - but not bad - it was the grade of the landscape to get there that was. We have some older relatives visit and its not conducive to having them walk to it so we didn't entertain much at the lake. There seemed to be the ability to drive there and park but we didn't. Also the lake was very high this year so it eliminated some of the beach front which is not normal.
Overall we loved the housed and owners. It does sit above a garage but we didn't care as it was such a nice place inside. Highly recommend for a young family looking for a wonderful getaway on a perfect lake.

Mixed review
The over garage loft itself is quite nice and very well maintained. The owner is extremely nice and helpful but there is little privacy as it is quite close to the owner's home . There really was no fire pit, and the access to the beach, which is shared, not private is down the long driveway, across and up the road and then back down to an area designated for the property. Not private and very difficult to carry your things to

Wonderfull Week
My family has been coming up to this lake renting in different areas over the years. We loved this cabin/location because it was up the river closer to my fathers place. The Water access was great for the kids with a Trampoline just a short swim out. Both my 9 year old and 7 year old played on that for hours. The Dock was deep enough for a boat to come in and pick us up.

Beautiful
The home was cozy, warm and lovely, still had that new house smell.
The surrounding area was peaceful and the lake was clean and warm.
We drive to Bolton’s Landing and had the best time on a boat tour.
Lake George beach was also loads of fun. Both less than hour away from the home.
All and all we had a wonderful time!

Nice Weekend getaway
Owners were friendly and went over and beyond to accommodate our stay. Cabin was spacious, clean and had everything we needed. They even had a nice dock and a inflatable floating trampoline which was a great added bonus for the kids! We had a great stay

Did not meet expectations
The cabin itself had everything you need and plenty of space for a family. We traveled with our two little kids (a 4 year old and a 16 month old expecting a sandy beach near but the location of this cabin was on a rocky side of the lake with no access for comfortable place for kids to swim. We found a spot with in a 5 minute drive with less rocks but it was too muddy and cannot call it a beach by any means
. We ended up driving 40 min each way to Lake George every day so our kids can enjoy swimming during these hot days and made the best of it. The area is remote so dont expect a ton of activities around. Depending on your needs and interests this cabin can work for you, unfortunately it was not what we were hoping for.
