A Treasure on the Lake
When our vacation plans to Florida fell through because of COVID-19, we quickly found this place online. After a week there, it's hard to believe this wasn't our first choice. We absolutely loved staying at the guest house. The truly private beach is amazing, with stunning sunsets over the Adirondacks. Our kids swam all day and built sand castles, and they often played in the huge yard. We had campfires almost every night, went kayaking at a nearby lake, and one day drove out to Lake George. We enjoyed every minute of our stay. Owners Mary Jo and Tony are some of the nicest people you'll ever meet. They made sure we had everything we needed and they take very good care of the property. They are also vigilant in regards to the coronavirus, and we greatly appreciated that (don't forget to bring linens, towels, pillows & blankets). This vacation was exactly what we needed. We wish we could have stayed longer!

Fun Family Friendly Lake House
Great summer cottage in beautiful, private, well manicured, huge yard -that runs from street all the way to lake. Lake was super clean. We brought our kayaks and SUP. Had a lot of fun. Fire pit on beach ended perfect days. Rooms in home are large (3 beds in each room with plenty of space). Days were hot and nights cool for us so fans/windows were perfect. Owners live in house next door, we spoke to them from a distance but due to the current times we all remained socially distant. Owner always working to keep property in tip top shape and guests happy. Was great stay. Highly recommended.

Wonderful Lakefront Stay!
We had a wonderful stay at the Venditti's cabin. They were excellent hosts, and the private Lakefront beach was beautiful. They had everything we needed in the kitchen and outdoors, including such details as fire wood for the outdoor fire pit. Would absolutely consider staying here again if we find ourselves heading to the area again.

Perfect Spot
Mary Jo's rental was perfect for the whole family (and friends)! The BEST part was the private sandy beach. People boat all over Sacandaga in search of a place like this to hang out. The sand and water were great for playing and swimming. The water was shallow with a gradual slope so kids could swim easily. Lounge chairs with umbrellas helped us to relax in the shade. The sunsets were BEAUTIFUL .
The house was clean, and had everything we needed to stay comfortably. Great outdoor seating with a grill. We enjoyed smores at night at the fire pit. Convenient location too with boat launch and a convenient store within a couple miles. Mary Jo and Tony were so sweet, and were very welcoming and attentive hosts. Thank you! We will stay again!

Sand Island fun house
The property was great and helped out because I had a large group coming up. While the group didn't stay with us we were allowed to have them come for the day and enjoy the lakefront and beach. Large property so we could have set up a volleyball net if I'd remembered to bring it.
Also right across from Sand Island so the next day it was easy travel to the Island

Peaceful getaway.
Clean rustic cottage with all the comforts of home. I was happy to have everything I needed to cook delicious meals, there were plenty of fans for those warm evenings and the lake with it’s expansive sandy beach was less than a 2 minute walk away. Sandy bottom and gradual depth. A great place to sun, read and swim all day. We were so captivated by the sunsets and starry nights we never turned the tv on . Mary Jo and Tony were very accommodating. We hope to rent again.

Great spot on the lake!
This cottage had a great spot on Lake Sacandaga. It had lots of room for our large family. The owners Tony and Mary Jo couldn’t have been any nicer, the only thing that I would suggest that would have improved our experience staying there, would have been air conditioning. Our first two days there, the temps were 90 plus degrees and it was brutal. Other than that, the cottage was very clean and close to the lake. Great spot for a family vaca on the lake.

Perfect place for relaxation!
We could not have asked for better people or a better place to spend our vacation. Mary Jo and Tony felt like family by the end of our stay. They were so welcoming and made us feel so comfortable! The camp and beach on the lake were perfect for us. We can not wait to return to this place and make more memories on the Great Sacandaga!

Best spot on the lake!!
The cottage was super clean and Mary Jo and Tony make sure there is everything you need to enjoy a relaxing week at the lake - books, games for kids, fully stocked kitchen, and plenty of sleeping space. We were so happy with the lovely lake view, and the property is really convenient to some wonderful restaurants on the lake (fun to go to by boat - or car!), and close to grocery stores, etc. Perfect spot to watch the beautiful sunsets right over Sand Island too. Really can’t get better than the private beach area either - gentle walk out for easy swimming and plenty big enough for our family of 5, plus numerous family guests. Don’t even need to bring beach chairs - everything is already there waiting! Tony and Mary Jo were the BEST hosts.....we really enjoyed meeting them - they were full of great stories and we loved hearing about the history of their family home on the lake. Both were very helpful (especially Tony watching out for us on our first boat adventure in quite awhile!), always ready to lend a hand, but never intrusive. The very best people - you will leave feeling like family, as we did!

The sweetest hosts you can imagine
Besides the location, the sunsets, the sandy beach ... Mary jo and Tony were the highlight of our week in their cottage.
Plenty of space and the water is stone's throw away, the sunsets were amazing and we can't wait til our next visit.
My kids had a blast and that's what matters to us.

Absolutely Perfect!!!!
Two of the nicest people on that Lake are the ones you will be renting this from. I could tell you how great the house was ( It was perfect for my family ) or how beautiful the lake was and the fun that we all had just being together ...That's all a given. Its the owners that made it extra special for us. We couldn't have asked for a better week.

Super nice hosts, Clean but basic property
We were disappointed to learn that there was no AC. A cross breeze was achieved with both end doors open but those doors were quite rickety and not lockable so we closed up daily and when we returned each evening, the house was hot and humid. Also lots of mosquitos and spiders got inside through those doors. New windows were great and plenty of space to sleep...except a few beds were very squeaky that woke us up every time someone tossed and turned. Plenty of hot water for showers and linen/towel rental convenient. Great beach access and sandy area with chairs!. In general very well kept property and great location. Hosts very nice and helpful (we asked to have under picnic tables mowed and it was done immediately!) Wifi access worked well. It is very evident owners continue to improve this property.

Great vacation week Sept. 2016
We really enjoyed our week on the lake. The house was well equipped and had plenty of room to move around with comfortable bed. The beach was a stones throw away and it was it was wonderful to be able to sit there in the evenings with many chairs, table and umbrella. There is a very good shopping and restaurant area not too far away in Amsterdam. Mary Jo and Tony were very helpful and ensured our comfort during our stay. Also they were a very interesting couple with many stories of local events and places to go. We had many a long chat together and felt that we had known them for a long time.
JoAnn and Peter.

Great week with family and friends
We really enjoyed our stay!
Mary Jo and Tony were very gracious hosts and provided all that we needed and more.
You could not ask for a better piece of beachfront. My family and I have rented several houses in Sacandaga and this has the best waterfront! Sandy beach, gradual walk-in, and very clean and well kept. The kids enjoyed swimming and playing for hours.
The house was very clean and had everything!
Thanks Mary Jo and Tony! It was a pleasure to meet you and I am sure that we will be seeing you again!
