We stayed in cottage #4 and it was absolutely adorable and comforting. The decor is on point with the surroundings outside. There was only 2 things that I think should be upgraded and that's only in my opinion. 1) the bed was very uncomfortable so next time we decide to stay we will def bring a foam topper and 2) I would like. Tv in the bedroom. I know I know I'm "glamping" but, I fall asleep with the sound of the tv. It rained the whole trip and I did love hearing the rain drops hit the metal roof. It was so euphoric. We def plan on coming back in the summer for a few days. Thank you for everything to the owners. They were fantastic.

We stayed over a weekend in late September, in cottage 2. I'm not an outdoors girl and I had low…read moreexpectations, given this is a cottage in the Adirondacks, but I was pleasantly surprised! I can't speak for all the cabins, but ours was updated and had the loveliest amenities, and it was spacious! All of the windows open and there is a screen door so you can let in the fresh air, but there is also an AC/heater so you will be comfortable. A full fridge, gas range, microwave, toaster, and coffee pot in the kitchen with every dish, utensil, or piece of cookware you could need. The toilet and shower are in the bathroom and just outside there's a little alcove with a huge countertop and sink and very large mirror. There's a large kitchen table with four chairs, two armchairs facing the television, and a roomy closet. It really is like a small apartment. (Actually, I had a small apartment and it didn't have nearly as much storage space.) Tons of drawers in the bathroom and bedroom area as well. Bed was a little uncomfortable, but everything was better than I expected so I wasn't upset about it. The proprietor is so nice!! Very helpful, full of recommendations. And the location is just in the center of town so it's close to any shopping or restaurants, and just a short drive or bike ride even from the water park, and only 15 min drive from Adirondack Woodcraft Camps (which is where my friends wedding was). You have to keep in mind this is similar to an Air BnB in that there's no housekeeping during your stay and you are responsible for tidying up after yourselves before you leave, washing your dishes, taking out your trash, etc. which wasn't so bad because hello, I'm not a pig. If you are, probably you shouldn't stay here anyway. But, highly recommend! I even mentioned to my boyfriend that I'd really like to stay again next summer and make a longer vacation out of it!

I even got married there on the dock in 1995. We stayed in the cottage. It used to be an ice house. It is leaning so bad now you feel like you are going downhill. They put bunkbeds in the already small bedroom. There is still a queen bed in there, and a table I don't quite understand why it is there. When the new owners took over they drove it right into the ground. Not well kept up at all. They give you 2 complementary kayaks to use for the week but we did not get the life vests until the end of our time there. They came out and put them out without saying anything. The dock is leaning into the water so you do not feel safe on it. It is not pet friendly (It was always before) Not sure why you can not bring animals to this rundown place. I really wish this would have been a better experience. This property has so many memories for me.

The place is dirty and needs a massive cleaning and update. We arrived to such disgusting mold in…read morethe shower that one of our party had a asthma attack. Had to clean it ourselves. The floors are filthy. One bedroom is so tiny that the bed literally takes up all but about six inches of the space. The only view of the lake is from the tiny upstairs balcony. One of the tables on the main deck is covered with mold and slime. The owner will lie and mislead. This is a lake-front property marketed to families, but no one tells you you're not allowed to swim in the water until you're already there. The dock has insufficient seating and other renters are allowed to dock their boat across the front of the dock for a week at a time so you have no view of the lake at all. Too many other good options to book this place.
