We love Five Pines and have stayed here several times!! The house is perfect for a comfortable stay, with plenty of room for people to relax together but also have spaces away from each other. The lake is a dream, both gazing at it from the screened in porch or from the deck right at the water’s edge. The swimming and boating is amazing. The hosts are wonderful, so easy to communicate with and responsive. Hope to be back again!!

and perfect viewing for the recent solar eclipse! Debbi and Joe - thank you again for all the helpful tips, places to see and eat. Everything was as described!! Great, cozy little spot, well off the beaten path. Just the way we like it! Look forward to visiting again in the warmer weather and near future to enjoy more of the lake and Five Pines! Thank you!!

House was really nice. Would definitely rent again.

The house is in impeccable shape and flows so well! The kitchen was a pleasure to use and there were plenty of staples. Everything, including the fishing and boating gear was neatly stored and accessible. Lovely porch with beautiful views. Debbie and Joe are detail-oriented and considerate hosts!

Five Pines on Rainbow Lake is such an outstanding rental for those willing to drive just a little further north than most people do, in order to be immersed in natural beauty, away from population centers. but without sacrificing benefits of modern living. The beautiful, not too big, not too small house is tastefully decorated, airy and clean, well-designed and constructed, up-to-date, yet appropriate to its setting and in peaceful woods right on the shores of a serene, intimate and intricate, lesser known gem of an Adirondack lake. We appreciated the large well-appointed kitchen, open-concept connection to dining / living room with comfortable new seating, fireplace, and sliding door to a truly excellent screened porch with lake view. The owners provided access to several kayaks, canoes, SUPs, and were very helpful, informative with just the right amount of clear communication. I highly recommend Five Pines!

House and location were exactly as described and everything we had hoped for. A peaceful retreat in a beautiful, very special place. The house was immaculate and very well cared for. Perfect for our two families of 5 and 4. Basement beds were not quite as comfy and basement felt a wee bit damp (nothing a dehumidifier couldn't solve) but great space and really no complaints. Lake is beautiful. Boats (we used them all!l were just great and easy to access. Watched the stars from the dock, had a few fires at the fire pit. The giant screened in porch was amazing and where we all wanted to be whether eating, or reading, or hanging out chatting. It is the star of this already lovely home. Kitchen was top end and had everything we could want for dishes / appliances. Great location too - secluded but easy to get to hikes and bigger lakes/towns for dining out, shopping (go to lake Placid for that!). Joe and Debbi were very attentive and kind. They clearly care about their home and neighbors and want respectful tenants, understandably. They offered great suggestions for things to do ( loved the nearby VIC for hikes and Ampersand was the challenge hike for us with astonishing 360 views!)This is unequivocally 5 stars all around. Will absolutely book again!

Beautiful home, incredible views... So many nice touches. Deb and Joe were fantastic to work with. Our family had a wonderful time and we would definitely stay here again!

Wow! What an absolutely beautiful, serene and relaxing vacation! The cabin is perfect - we enjoyed the large, open common spaces, like the living room and kitchen layout, and the privacy of the bedroom layout. Our family had lots of places to both gather and to enjoy some peace and quiet (perfect for the three teenagers we had on the trip!). The enclosed porch needs its own section of the review, though - we LOVED it!! We ate all of our meals at the huge dining table, enjoyed doing puzzles and playing games, and ended every evening out there relaxing together before bed. What an amazing space to enjoy the lake views, the loon calls and the serenity - all while staying bug-free! The cabin was also extremely clean and well-furnished. Outside of the cabin itself, we enjoyed outdoor activities, especially fishing off the dock. We caught so many fish - over 30 total (I'm sure some repeats!) from the dock, and larger fish while kayaking right around the bend (to the left when leaving Boot Bay). We also enjoyed boating every day on the kayaks and paddleboards. While we brought our own lifejackets and rods, the cabin had an ample supply of these. We also enjoyed a trip to the VIC, hiking at Owl's Head Mountain, the farmers' market in Keene on Sunday, shopping in Lake Placid, Donnelly's, dinner at Raybrook Brewery, and many other fun local experiences. I would highly recommend a stay at Joe and Debbie's gorgeous cabin on Rainbow Lake!
