Thank you for your review. We agree the sunrise is amazing! We hope you made great memories.
6 Active adults in a very comfortable and well appointed waterfront retreat. We hiked, swam, rode horses and chatered a day of water sports. Wonderful restaurants all within 30 min and many comfortable meals made at home. Five star experience all around.

We lucked out with summer weather in April. Location was quiet with easy access to Lake George center and hiking trails. Family fun on canoe and kayaks, fishing and our grandchildren even caught and released a frog in a net near the dock.

Sue, Thank you so much for the review! We are so happy that the weather cooperated and allowed you to enjoy the great outdoors. We would love to have you book again in the future. :)
We had such a wonderful time at the house! Everything was wonderful - the location, house, man cave and hot tub! Our kids had a great time and it was close to everything! Perfect getaway to be close to lake George village but far enough to enough the quiet of nature! Communication was fantastic and the property manager always got back to us!

This property is nicely situated on the water with beautiful views. The hot tub over looking the water was fantastic on a chilly, fall night. The kids loved the game room and had the best time playing and exploring! We would definitely like to return again soon.

Melissa, thank you so much for the review! We are really glad to hear you loved the house! You are welcome back anytime!
The lakeside cottage was perfect for our family getaway - better than we could have imagined. Waking up to the sunrise over the lake was breathtaking. The house and grounds were beautiful, and every detail was better than the next. Swimming and paddleboarding in the lake, hanging out in the man cave, relaxing in the hot tub - there was something for everyone! Our only regret was that our stay was too short!

Ann, thank you so much for the review. We are so glad you had such a wonderful vacation. You and your family are welcome back anytime!
Great spot with lots of useable space in a tiny indoor footprint
Great spot for family gathering! The house itself has lots of useable space despite the small footprint. Any movement upstairs can be heard downstairs, so light sleepers should stay up top. Game room and outdoor sitting space was great. There are almost almost 30 outdoor chairs to use and there's space for everyone to be together without being on top of one another.
If it weren't for the overwhelming orange cleaning product smell which gave us a headache on arrival, would have been 5 stars.

Thank you for your feedback. We are so happy that you also enjoyed the game room and outdoor living space. We would love for you to come back to visit us soon.
This was a last minute trip with only my family of four. While the house was way too large for us (sleeping over 10) we enjoyed our stay and choose this property as it was pet friendly and had tons of add ons such as the jacuzzi, a game room and of course the lake. This was the first time we stayed at a property in which we decided to bring our big along so we were a bit wary but overall had a good time. The location was great, the house was very clean and northern living made itself available when needed.

Thank you so much for the review! We are so glad you enjoyed your stay and were able to bring along your dog as well!
The house was amazing and Kate was so responsive- beautifully decorated, fully stocked and convenient and roomy for our family of 6. The house was pet friendly and clean so our dog had a great time too! The location was serene, peaceful and picture perfect. We enjoyed kayaking (rental was so easy and they were waiting for us when we arrived) and fishing. The game room was a favorite hang out spot with a great Sunday breakfast on the game room porch! The hot tub was an added bonus as well. We enjoyed a quick trip to Lake George for Octoberfest and the Sagamore. Such easy access to a variety of things to do! Perfect Getaway! Thank you!

Trish, thank you for the review! We are honored you chose us to stay with! We are glad that you had the perfect fall weekend getaway enjoying the beauty of the Adirondacks! We hope to welcome you and your family, as well as your dog back soon!
Incredible stay at the Lakehsore Cottage on Hadlock Lake. My extended family of 10 stayed four nights at this property and enjoyed every minute of it. The property was extremely clean and very well-managed.
The lake was a beautiful backdrop and served as a great source of fun from canoeing (included with the stay), to fishing from the dock for bluegill and small mouth bass, to just enjoying a campfire on the shore.
The game room was a major hit. Almost all games were fully intact and operational, which is not usually the case with a vacation rental. We had such a blast playing games in the evening.
The host was gracious and almost immediate with all responses. All needs were met and everything was executed perfectly.
I cannot recommend this property enough! You will love it.

Ralph, thank you so much for the kind words! We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us and took advantage of all the fun activities the home and area had to offer.
Excellent property! Plenty of space for 10 of us. Comfy beds/linens, two separate living areas, and we really loved a kitchen filled with quality supplies. We’ve rented so many other places that the pots/pans etc are low quality or they don’t have the kitchen well stocked. Not the case here! We cooked every meal, hardly left the house in 3 days! Plenty to do even with the cold weather. Spent hours in the gaming garage, lots of hot tub time, and fishing off the dock. Board games, laughter, and time to connect in a very cozy, peaceful cottage. Would love to come back when the weather is nicer to enjoy some of the other activities the property has to offer.

Dorinda, thank you so much for the kind words! We would love to have you back, glad you enjoyed your stay.
The location was perfect. Being directly on the lake with private dock was great for the kids. The lake itself was beautiful. The house was ok - not great. Water pressure was horrific. Downstairs shower barely had a trickle and same went for the kitchen sink. Tons of mold inside the washing machine. The supplies were average - some things like the can opener could use an upgrade. The downstairs main bed felt like it was about to fall apart. So rickety it actually made me nervous. Overall it was a good vacation but the house could use some upgrades.

Amanda, thank for the review and feedback! I do wish you would have reached out to us when you noticed these things! We ask that you let us know as soon as possible so that you have the best stay as possible! We would have sent maintenance right away. I am happy to hear that your overall stay was great, and hope to have you stay with us in the future.
The pictures make it look like it’s a little small however upon arrival it’s apparent that it’s spacious and comfortable even with 10 adults. Very close to a few good restaurants and convenient stores. Great location.
