About Diane Powers
Eric and I grew up in Lake Luzerne, NY...and even though we've since moved away, still consider it Home. More than ever, we appreciate the beauty and tranquility of the Adirondacks...and the incredible gift of having grown up there. We've enjoyed renting our pondhouse since 2006...and have many guests returning year after year!
Diane Powers purchased this house in 2006
Why Diane Powers chose Lake Luzerne
Our 'pondhouse' was built by Eric's grandfather. It is a magical place, full of fond memories of family gatherings centered around the peaceful natural surroundings.
What makes this house unique
The house is not a camp or cabin; it is a year round home, heated, and available for rent year-round. It is not 'closed up for the winter'...and therefore does not smell like a camp or cabin!
Guestbook comments from the owner
The property had everything we needed and more. It was great! The property had a private pond where we enjoyed using the paddleboat and the outdoor deck to bbq. The house had everything we needed and it was very clean. The owner was great and it was even better to have a relative live near the property if we needed something or had any questions about the property. The location of the property was close to lake george and other attractions. They had great restaurants nearby and had many activities and attractions that we could enjoy. it was a great and relaxing memorial day weekend.

Great outdoor space
Our family had a great time at the house. We traveled with our two small children and it was a great getaway.
The pictures in the website accurately represent the house. The inside is quaint and functional.
The kitchen was better stocked than other vrbos we've done. They had even had tongs and other stuff for the grill. They had a pack and play and a booster seat (we didn't realize and brought our own). They had 2 kayaks, a rowboat, and a paddleboat. They had life vests including one for a child as small as 30 lbs. The outdoor space was beautiful. We didn't see or hear the other ppl on the pond....it was like we had it to ourselves. Unfortunately, you can't really hike around the pond. But, there were great short walks to take around town and a few small nature trails. Lake Luzerne and the Hudson river are five minute walks away. There is a small grocery store and pharmacy within walking. We loved our trip sitting in their back deck, boating in the pond, and enjoying the scenery.
Great Winter Stay
In order to spend time near enough to our daughter and grand kids to participate in their lives for a while, we rented the "Pond House" for three winter months. Although it's an older house, it was more than adequate for our purpose. It's location offered privacy and a great quiet atmosphere although only a few hundred yards from the Hadley-Luzerne High School doors. And the local grocery store and other local amenities are within easy walking distance. Owner Diane is wonderfully cooperative and accommodating. She makes the rental process easy and convenient. The "Pond House" was a great place for us to spend our winter months. And the time we were able to spend with our daughter and grand kids is priceless. Thank you Diane!
great, relaxing experience
We had a great time staying at the Mini Pond house! The house was in great shape and very clean when we arrived! The owner met us at the location to welcome us. All amenities worked great! it was a very comfortable stay and I would definitely recommend this property for anyone for a nice and quiet vacation! It is located close to skiing resorts witch is good for someone who wants to stay during winter time and love to ski.
Fishing joy
My husband caught 34 large mouth bass in the pond here right off the dock, (catch and release) , very serene. It was immaculate inside, everything necessary for an extended stay. The nights were very cool after a crazy heatwave so sleeping was so nice, great cross breezes from the large kitchen windows through the back porch door. Cable and internet worked fine. Very enjoyable time.
Peaceful
Loved the outdoor space. So tranquil. Owner was very nice and responsive. We had a lovely time. Thanks
Great stay!
This is a great property and we especially liked the pond. Diane is also very responsive and the house is well kept. Thanks for a great stay!
