About this property

Rustic Adirondack Home on French Pond w/Sandy Beach, Direct Snowmobile & ATV

French Pond has a private, sandy beach area which is wonderful for swimming. The cabin is situated upon 5 acres of beautiful Adirondack Park wooded land surrounded by 13,000 acres of state land in the Western Adirondack Mountains. The West Branch of the Oswegatchie River is only 100 yards from the front door. Near the cabin are numerous ponds - French Pond, Long Pond, Round Pond, Rock Pond, Trout Pond, Clear Pond and Mud Pond which are all from 100 yards away to within two miles! A trail head for Jake's Pond can be found at the end of Long Pond Road only about 3 miles away. There are maps at the cabin for your use to personalize your own Adirondack Adventure!

Snowmobiling (or ATV-ing) from the front door with plenty of trailer parking. The cabin is located on Long Pond Road Trail with Lewis County C8 and C5 trails less than one mile down the road. All beautiful trails to anywhere in the state. An amazing 30 mile ride southeast to Stillwater Reservoir then Old Forge; north to Harrisville and Star Lake; or up into the Five Ponds wilderness that is due east on Long Pond Road. We have made Camp convenient for winter occupancy with a furnace and an optional wood stove to keep you warm. You can ride all day and come home to sit by a warm fire.

French Pond Camp was custom built by a local, master cabinet maker. Camp is two levels with an extra large, covered screened front porch leading the way to a beautiful very spacious custom kitchen with a gorgeous cherry floor dining room, two full bathrooms, laundry area, cozy-scenic living room and one bedroom completes the first level. A custom log staircase takes you to the second level with three bedrooms.

No matter what the season, every day is beautiful. The summer sun off the waters, winter all in white or the fall with its intense colors. The cabin is surrounded by huge white pines, hemlock woods and maple hardwoods for color and fragrance. The cabin is approximately fourteen miles from the Village of Croghan and right around the corner from The Buckhorn Bar & Grill.

A canoe, rowboat and kayaks are available for your enjoyment on French Pond. Plus, Camp has a wonderful sandy beach which is perfect for swimming. Enjoy a campfire by the pond at night.

We own an adjoining additional 2 acres lot with a 3 bedroom cabin (Listing#7938000) directly next to the house (60 feet apart) and a 2 bedroom cabin (Listing#3565930). See Oswegatchie ADK Cabin Retreat in Croghan, NY for details and to rent with the French Pond house - it's a great setup especially for a getaway with extended family and friends. These are separate properties but the cabins are close to each and do share the beach amenities.
