Candyland

We absolutely loved our stay at ADK Candyland! The views were stunning and the property was large and gave each of us our own space when needed, but was also perfect when we all wanted to be together. . The host was super responsive and made checking in a breeze. The lake was perfect for swimming and kayaking, and evening fires. The house was spotless and had everything we needed, from comfy beds to a fully stocked kitchen. Can't wait to come back! 10/10 would recommend

WONDERFUL WEEK ON LAKE VANARE

Our family of 6 one dog spent an entirely enjoyable week at Candyland. Even though the weatherman predicted showers and thunderstorms for some/most of the week, we had a beautiful sunny week with only a five minute shower one day and a thunderstorm late in the evening on another. This truly unique home was meticulous. It had all the essentials that we needed. We enjoyed the backyard lake where we fished and were able to catch a few small mouth bass. The kayaks and the double pedal boat were fun. The massage chair was relaxing and we all enjoyed playing several rounds of pool on the pool table. Shawn, the owner, was very quick to respond to any questions we had. Great fun week!

A Great Weekend Getaway

This was a great spot for my husband and I, our two teenagers, and two of their friends to spend a long fun, relaxing weekend. Plenty to do and plenty of room for everyone to spread out. The property was exactly as advertised and exceptionally clean, and Shawn was always accessible to answer any questions.

Great place right on the lake!

What a view in the morning and loved the proximity to Lake George without the hustle and bustle. Fun time fishing and canoeing and the pool table came in handy when the weather didn't cooperate. And Shawn was very responsive and helpful. Will stay there again.

Great property and beautiful location!

We had a great time staying at this property. The house was beautiful, very clean and well appointed. We couldn’t have asked for more! The view is spectacular and it was great having the dock, beach and canoe/kayak. The owner was very easy to communicate with and answered all our questions. We would love to visit again next summer!

Perfect spot, good value

This is our second time renting this house and it’s perfect. We plan our trip around a day at the racetrack and it’s an easy drive there. The house is enormous with very unique furnishings and decor which we enjoy. Took the canoe out this morning for a nice end to a relaxing weekend!

Great spot!

Spent 3 nights here and had a very pleasant and relaxing experience. House was clean, comfortable and well stocked. Everything was as advertised. WiFi was excellent. Communication from Shawn before and during our stay was very helpful and appreciated. Easy drive into the village of Lake George, but we spent most of our time at the property.

Great early summer weekend

The pictures of the propery do not do it justice. My wife was amazed when she opened the door! The house has plenty of room, very clean, and has amazing views of the lake. The host was very responsive to questions, and ensured we had more than everything we needed to have an awesome weekend! House has its own lake access and very nice private beach! Very close to Lake George attractions, but the view from the deck of Adirondack Candyland might have you saying " might be a good day to hang on my private beach"

Excellent family/friend getaway

We absolutely loved our stay. This house was off a main road but tucked away enough to feel remote. Having access to a canoe, kayak, and row boat were perfect for daily outings on the lake. This house is very family friendly - we travelled with 2- 2 year olds and were not worried about safety issues at all. Shawn was very helpful with the entire process and checked in with us to make sure everything was going great. Highly recommend!

Awesome Stay!

Talk about a view from the deck! The house is ultra clean ( a must for me) pool table and darts for your evening enjoyment....the deck is enormous which overlooks the lake....stroll on down to the beach area with double docks...fishing and either row boating...canoeing or Kayaking awaits you...oh yes along with a firepit for the evening festivities...a must stay and will be returning! Shawn...the owner is just a quick text away with any questions....

Wonderful Week!!!

We found the house to be exactly as advertised and even more than we expected...beautiful, incredibly clean and well appointed, and also in a prefect location! Although only 5 minutes from the heart of Lake George, it felt as though we were 1000 miles from civilization on a pristine lake. The house has to be seen to be believed and the pictures do not do it justice! Our kids (17 and 19) spent almost every waking moment in the kayak, canoe or rowboat fishing or chilling on the dock with rods in hand! A little tubing, a little shopping in Lake George and a visit to Saratoga Race Track made this a very special and relaxing vacation. We had a couple of questions about the house when we arrived and, after texting our host, Shawn came by and helped us out by answering all of our questions. The kitchen had everything that anyone would possibly need and the gazebo on the deck overlooking the lake is where we had most of our meals. Overall we had a fabulous time and we will definitely be returning! Thanks for everything Shawn...our week was wonderful!!!

Perfect Getaway in Nature

So much more than we had hoped for. We stayed for 3 nights with our two adult children and their partners and it was more than we expected. Lovely large!!!! home for relaxing, creating memories, bonding with family and nature. The pictures shown in the listing are spot on. Plus a pool table! Mother Nature in the Adirondacks can be ever changing as we experienced rain ( yes Shawn even had large umbrellas to use ), hot and humid weather ( this home has multiple AC units to keep you cool enough) and cooler temps at night,(yes there is a fire pit if you choose.) Unfortunately, we were only there for three night, so busy away from the home that we didn't' take advantage of the water toys. The location was perfect, far enough from the crowds but close enough to Lake George and all that it has to offer which has something for all ages! Ample parking in the "tourist portion of Lake George." We also choose this location as it was about 30 minutes from Saratoga Race track and the quaint town of Saratoga Springs with its' cute shops and abundance of restaurants. We parked for free in a public lot and took the free trolley to the track and a taxi or uber back to town. For the golfers( novice to advanced), there is an inexpensive, beautiful, no frills, family run golf course 15 minutes north of this house. If you want to get in a quick 9 or 18 holes before the track my husband recommends the Cronin Golf Course in Warrensburg, NY. One tip to remember....Don't forget your bug spray. I am sure if Shawn had control over that he would have taken care of that too.

Such a unique and beautiful home in a beautiful and private location on the lake. Has everything you could possibly need. I’d give it a 5-star if it weren’t for the fact that “hot tub” was selected as an amenity for this property. There is no hot tub. There is a beautiful jacuzzi tub in the master bath. Misled us a little as we were looking forward to an actual hot tub. The owner was very attentive and helpful!
