Welcome to the Adirondacks! Rent your home away from home at the 'Park Place and Boardwalk' of the Great Sacandaga Lake! Offers an amazing 200 feet of direct frontage! Located on a quiet dead-end street, not the busy main road! Only 30 minutes from Lake George and Saratoga. Approx 50 minutes north of Albany, NY, and 3 hours north of the NY/NJ state line.
My wife and I have vacationed in the Adirondack Region, mostly around Lake George, since we were children. When we were ready to buy our own camp, we chose the Great Sacandaga Lake because it was as large as Lake George, but much more quiet and less commercial. We love it here.
Chad purchased this cabin in 2010
We purchased our own home (across the street) many years ago, so it made sense to purchase and renovate this camp, being so close to our own home.
Direct lake frontage - no crossing busy roads to get to the lake! Dead end street, serene setting, great for children and pets!
We had a wonderful stay at this property. Plenty of items in the kitchen and room to sleep. The outside property was clean and beautiful for family time outside.
The property had a beautiful view during the October weekend we visited. Trees were just changing and the lake was calm and peaceful. Quiet location with a hilly lakeside property. The home was spotless when we arrived and had all the comforts we needed (linens, pillows, bath towels, dishes, cookware and cutlery). Good kitchen, two full bathrooms with good water pressure, great grill, and covered spaces for eating outdoors. Caretaker was easy to reach and owners were prompt with communication. Our dogs and children had a blast exploring the property, dock, and rocky beach. Perfect fire pit for roasting marshmallows. Wifi was strong and connected us to the outside world (our cell phones had zero reception). Town was about a 20 minute ride (grocery store, gas, etc). Next time we would bring a canoe or rowboat. And there was a good amount of hill climbing and stair climbing involved, but it was worth it for the time spent with our family off the grid for a bit. For the owner, I'd just recommend there be some renter instructions left at the home (wifi password, garbage instructions, clean up instructions-we didn't know if we should strip beds, etc). This place was all we needed for a perfect weekend getaway. I would definitely recommend and come again. I'd love to see it in the summer. Thank you so much for hosting our family. We had so much fun.
This place came as promised. The home was very cozy and recently renovated inside. Had all the basic needs inside. Wifi and a Home phone was great since there is NO cell coverage out there. The Dock was amazing! The kids had a blast jumping off it into the lake. Great fire pit. Make sure to go check out " Handy Andy" out in Hadley for some cheap fire wood. Look at the pics. What you see is what you get.
Would def recommend it!!
Had a great week at this cabin. Loved the lake and the fabulous dock. Our only suggestion is that the owner might want to add some hooks around the different room (backs of bedroom/bathroom doors, for example) There needs to be more places to hang a towel or dog leash or what-not. Otherwise, loved it!
Also, what's the secret to catching the small mouth bass in the lake? We tried different baits and lures and were unable to hook one! Any suggestions?
We loved the lake view setting. The fire pit was a lot of fun. Fishing off the dock was picturesque. Great water pressure and hot water was appreciated. Kitchen very functional and overall place was clean and neat. We look forward to staying here again. Highly recommend you and your family staying if your looking for that "cabin in the woods" experience.
Alright so I've been renting this house for a few years now , I enjoyed it everytime for the first few years of staying here There used to be kayaks for us too use , there was a lot of kitchen supplies , it was much cleaner. But things suddenly went downhill for this place, there's a lot of things the owner should work on like fixing the grill - the grill temperature control broke so it stays very hot at a high temperature and burns what ur cooking , the second thing that needs to be fixed is the sitting area - there's so much space put more areas to sit in the living room there's only one couch. Thirdly , the owner should put back all the kitchen supplies like more pots and more utensils there's only like 2 pots - lastly , this place should be a little more cleaner the dishes were very greasy and the utensils were also greasy . (There should also be like a broom in this house too) this place suddenly just went down hill it started off so great and its just getting worse threw out the years. I'm not happy with this vacation house and I'm thinking of not returning please make changes to this house it's a small house with a lot of space use the space make it more comfortable for us visitors. Thankyou
Less than 30 minutes to Lake George and Saratoga.
