Ideal location

This house has the most beautiful views. It has its own dock, and several kayaks. The screened in porch is wonderful. When I had a question, Brian responded to me within minutes. I will definitely stay here again and recommend it for families.

Adirondack Fun

We appreciate the variety of watercraft and had fun canoeing and kayaking at the end of the beautiful lake where we saw families of ducks and beaver swimming. The big screened-in porch was especially good for watching the rain during our stay. And what would our time in the Adirondacks be without roasting hotdogs and making smores over an open fire. Algonquin Whispers has it all!

Great Adirondack experience!

We had a wonderful time at the Murphy's cottage. The variety of watercraft was great for our family, from a child's kayak for our youngest grandchild, to the paddle board/SUP for our teenager and the canoe for us. And everyone had fun on the floating foam raft—a new experience! The beautiful high screened in porch surrounded by trees was a special place to be in all kinds of weather. We enjoyed many meals outside, and what ADK family vacation would be complete without cooking Smores around a campfire! We appreciated the firepit, ADK chairs and two picnic tables. From the deck overlooking the lake, I loved watching the sunrise in the early morning, the moon rise at night, ducks swimming by and even three otters one early morning! Having two ADK General Stores within a few minutes of the cottage made it easy to get a few needed things as well as ice cream cones on a hot afternoon! Brian was very responsive to all our questions. We hope to return next summer.
