This property and the owners are lovely! The place is well cared for and has everything you need and want. I cook a lot of the meals when we are on vacation and this place had great pots and pans which makes it so nice! The mattresses are very comfortable, and I loved the light summery quilts. The river was beautiful and the location is perfect for our family! This is a lovely place!

We really enjoyed that the river was right behind the house and the convenience of the market pretty much right across the street.

NY Peeping Trip
My son and I came up to see the beauty that is the ADK. The Kottage was a perfect spot for us to base out experience from. The Kottage was great with the sound of the river and the trees rounding out our desire to be in nature (while having all the amenities). We plan to return and have another new wonderful experience!

We replaced a lot of burned out lightbulbs, but it was cool cuz they had them on hand. The cable internet didn't work for two days out of our four-day stay and phone calls to the owner/manager were not returned. We eventually did some hardware troubleshooting on our own, however, and made it work. If they keep the cable and do not upgrade to the locally-available fiber-optic internet provider (KVVI) you can expect about 9-10 Mbs down and less than 1 Mbs up on a good day. The TV signal is poor but that's probably not their fault. If your cell provider is Metro PCS there is no service in the house or environs. An upstairs indoor bloom of ladybugs was a little distracting, but not overwhelming, as those bugs, while numerous, are pretty cute. Many of the windows have a carpet of dead flies on the sills, the cleaning staff needs to remember to vacuum the windows on the inside. The tap water is tasty, the gas grill is great. Beds comfy. Toasty warm in the winter, too. Overall, pretty good place. Would recommend

The house is comfortable and inviting.
The house was all we expected. Clean, tidy and welcoming. Everything was as expected with no surprises. It was cold outside and a big snowfall too and we still had a great time. Colleen was very accommodating in regards to the snowstorm. We stayed late to let the roads clear. Thank you Colleen! We will come back this summer.
