Amazing on Alimeda
Loved the stay at this cute little lake house. It had evetee needed. Kayaks, rowboat, trampoline, fishing pole, fire pit, tree house, etc… we absolutely loved it. Kirsten was a tremendous host, great communicator. Comfortable house, teenagers loved the loft. Beautiful, serene lake just steps from their house. We would def come back, maybe make it an annual summer stay. We were very lucky to find this place

Artsy house by the lake
We stayed at the property for two nights and were able to bring our dog. We loved the location by the lake and used the boats to go on the water. The kids very also very excited about the loft and the many things in the backyard, such as trampoline, tree house, swings etc. The weather was not the best but the house was equipped with games, TVs and movies for entertainment.

Secluded cabin with water view upstate NY
We went up with my family to enjoy a couple of days of peace and relaxation- wow, we were rewarded with this wonderful, tranquil cabin house that easily accomodated 5 adults. Spent days fishing, boating, reading, relaxing. Words will not do justice to this place. Owner was an excellent communicator, and left us alone to enjoy ourselves. Will definitely be back.

About the host

Hosted by Kirsten Malloy

Host profile image
We moved here from New York City after having our first child. We wanted a place in the country that would be nurturing and healing for our growing family. It's definitely done that for us and we are delighted to share our home with others while we seek new adventures!

Why they chose this property

The knotty pine cathedral ceilings make this home feel so spacious and roomy. The energy here feels inviting, warm, friendly and peaceful! After experiencing the inside of the house we ventured outside to the lake and could hardly believe we could actually own a little piece of heaven like this. Swimming in the lake each morning invigorates and refreshes each and every one of our spirits daily!

What makes this property unique

Having a lake in the back yard is such a blessing. The added amenities like the 15ft trampoline, tree house, swing set, sand boxes, slides and swings and boats truly make this property a children's paradise! Also the endless trails through the woods and the road that encircles the lake is so ideal for taking a leisurely stroll or bike ride. It's also an added bonus that we can build campfires in the fire pit next to the lake and enjoy watching the starlit skies while roasting our s'mores!
