Map & Owner's Profile
First Lake Retreat, Custom Adirondack Chalet
Year Purchased: 2005
Why the Owner Chose Old Forge
The people are great, the local food is excellent, and the views throughout the seasons are quite spectacular. There is so much to do in the area its impossible to bore yourself. We built the house from 2004-2005. We chose the neighborhood cause it was quiet, close to town, and close to the lake. Old Forge has something for everyone. I am big into snowmobiling and we have direct trail access to hundreds of miles of beautiful Adirondack Seclusion
The Unique Benefits at this Chalet
I like that the house was designed the way we wanted it. Every room in the house carries its own theme, and knowing we designed the layout gives us peace of mind. We enjoy the snowfall in the winter, the great foliage in the fall, Whitewater rafting in the spring, and summers bring some of the best day and night weather in all of New York.

I wouldnt normally take the time to fill out a review but my wife insisted on doing so after our fanstastic stay in "First Lake Retreat". First off talking with the owner Tony was a pleasurable experience. He was very nice on the phone and spent 1/2 hour answering all our questions about the area and the accomodations. And we can say he didnt stretch the truth. From the moment we pulled up to the property we could tell that is was going to be a good week. the house is situated in a nice area and really gives a great presence over the woods. The inside was decorated perfect for the adirondack area. Whoever the decorator was.... did a great job. Leather couches were very comfortable and the king size bed made for an easy nights sleep. It is very quiet in this neighborhood and that provided some real peaceful R&R. After spending some time on the beach we realized that we would probably not rent on the water. I thought that it would be a set back in this house but it wasnt. being 1 block up from the water kept away all the boat traffic that goes on all week long. There are plenty of activities in the area so spend a week in Old Forge and you'll have a great time. Make Sure to stay here at this home cause they have everything! Thanks for a great week we'll be back next summer! Jim and Cathy S.

My family and I enjoyed this house for our vacation. It is located on a quite road with very little traffic. The decor was amazing for an Adirondack house. The owners supply a lot of amenities for your use. I loved having a washer and dryer with children. We were able to watch wild life from the porch. The best for us was being able to have our dogs with us who are our children!! I would recommend this house to anyone who wanted and Old Forge vacation. I would rent this home again and again.

My husband and I spent a relaxing long weekend at this chalet style home. The home is full of amenities and is a relaxing atmosphere. This was our first time in Old Forge and we enjoyed the town and allit had to offer. There are plenty of great "woodsy" dining experiences and the weather was really great. I would recommend going to Old Forge for a week, a weekend, or even just a night.. We are sure to be back. Thanks Again!!
