Wonderful week of fishing, swimming, kayaking, and hiking - and just spending quality family time together. Since there were 14 in our group, the "Great Camp" was just perfect.

This is our second time staying at the winter cottage and it is simply perfection. It has everything we look for. Martha is also a great host with wonderful communication. The house sits beautifully on the lake with a dock that is perfect for swimming, fishing, or launching a kayak or paddle board. I miss my morning coffee on the large deck facing the water. It doesn’t lack a thing. Thank you Martha.

The gorgeous location on the water is in our opinion the real draw for this property. Our family ultimately had a truly lovely stay and made memories to last a lifetime. To help others, because I wish someone had done this for me in their reviews I will say that the listing made me think that there were 3 indoor showers. The reality is that the 2 tub-showers on the 2nd floor are vintage tubs with a hand shower, no shower curtain or rail system to use one…just as it would have been in the early days. So don’t expect to use them to take a modern traditional shower where you stand up and shower. It was too cold to use the outdoor shower, so our entire family had to use the one updated shower on the first floor. It’s an old building, the stairs creak loudly and the bedroom beneath them hears each step up and down them. Its a very old building so expect the associated character. Also take note, most all of the kitchen cookware is quite worn and didn’t feel the cleanest. We washed everything prior to using it. Bring sponges and dish towels and lots of paper towels and maybe your own cooking pans if you are accustomed to nice fresh nonstick cookware. Upon arrival there were some cleaning issues that we brought to the hosts attention and she was very kind and took care of them for us. My understanding is that it’s very hard to find good cleaning help currently but they are working on it. Overall a very interesting house, it’s very vintage and if you’re looking for a perfect location on long lake with a great view and lovely water access this could be the place for you. The owner was easily accessible by text and she was incredibly kind which made us all feel comfortable and welcome. We had a wonderful time as a family and are thankful to have had the opportunity and experience.

Our family just spent a week enjoying this beautiful home and property. Our host was very responsive to our questions which made our stay so easy. With 5 children and 7 adults we had ample room, plenty of space to cook and eat and lots of games, boats and other amenities that kept everyone entertained. We were so delighted that the usual array of dollar store kitchenware was not the case in this house. From silverware to appliances, first class! We also loved the charming decor and how it tied in with the incredible beauty of the surroundings. The bathrooms were lovely but the outdoor shower was a huge hit with the kids! There is much more to shout about at "Winter Cottage" but I'll end with an enthusiastic recommendation for the ADK experience in comfort!!!

We throughly enjoyed our week getaway to this unique, historic lodge in the middle of the Adirondacks. The spacious cabin was well stocked, comfortable for a large group with lots of amenities to keep kiddos entertained. The lake was the real show stopper! Fishing was great and the area was quiet and peaceful! Martha was easy to communicate with. Highly recommend!

A beautiful, historic property with beautiful views of the lake. Lots of space and a great location. Loved the back porch for sitting, reading, reflecting. Great amenities! Watched a bald eagle fly by while sitting around the fire pit. Awesome place.

Every detail was perfect in this amazing home. The owners were wonderful. It had everything you would want: well stocked home, dock you can swim from, kayaks, paddle boards, a canoe, grill, comfortable beds, big dining room table, outdoor shower., and an amazing front porch.

With 6 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms including an outdoor hot shower, it was ideal for being roomy and comfortable. Lots a games. Great porches. Canoe and kayaks and paddle boards made to the activities.
