About this property

Beautiful Lakefront Home With Great Location

Lake Abanakee Camp is more like Lake Abanakee Home than a camp, with brick fireplace, hardwood and nice quarry tile look vinyl flooring, natural wood cabinets and walls, birchbark themed kitchen wallpaper (nice kitchen), and lots of Adirondack touches from rug to artwork to lamp/end table. The 'screened porch' is actually a room off the kitchen with 2 windows that have screens when opened. There is a nice view of the lake across a quiet neighborhood road from all 3 of those rooms.The small wading beach is not ideal for swimming (kids will like it) because the water is shallow at this spot but there is a dock for boating. You will spend many pleasant hours and meals sitting in the chairs by the water. You might see the doe and fawn along the shore to our right as well as at different times duck and 8 tiny ducklings, 6 geese, and loons can be heard throughout.. An active osprey nest is atop a pole in the middle of the causeway. The double lot with the lawned sideyard on one side of the house provides privacy, and the neighbor on the other side never uses their dock or waterfront next to ours, so it gives you more of a feeling of having this section of the lakefront to ourselves. Friendly community (people wave); quiet at night. You might want to climb up Chimney Mt to a fine view from some of the rock formations at the top or kayak/fish on the lake. There is a nice small swimming beach, convenience store, and a few eateries a couple miles away in the town and more trailheads along the road to beautiful Blue Mt Lake with state owned islands, just one of many paddling experiences nearby in addition to miles of exploration in Lake Abanakee itself. Approximately 4 miles long and ½ mile wide, Lake Abanakee winds around islands with nesting osprey and eagles. Both large and small mouth Bass are abundant, as are the more elusive Northern Pike. The plentiful pan-fish population will keep the beginning fisherman interested, while the experienced hand can attempt a larger catch, including Muskie and Walleye. Lake Abanakee is exceptionally quiet. Rare is the loud motor boat, though trolling motors are welcome. Paddle enthusiasts will find hours of leisurely touring. Or, travel up the Indian River and over a wooded portage to experience Indian Lake. NOTE: this is a cabin in the woods, there will be wildlife, maybe a mouse, maybe a moose, one never knows.

This rental includes the use of two kayaks and row boat at your own risk..Lake Abanakee Home has a lot going for it! Check in is 2pm, check out is 10am. THIS RENTAL ONLY RENTS PER WEEK FOR THE ENTIRE WEEK JULY AND AUGUST, Saturday to Saturday, PLEASE DO NOT REQUEST SHORTER STAYS DURING THESE MONTHS, No Pets, no smoking, no linens are provided, you must supply your own sheets, towels, etc. There is also no housekeeping so you will be responsible for that also, leaving the house in clean condition. We make no guarantees and are not responsible for anything that may not be functioning but will do our best to correct the issues. thanks for looking!

Wonderful house and location!
Perfect sized house, clean and comfortable. Enjoyed looking at lake everyday, kayaking and fishing. My friend caught 4 Northern Pike. They are difficult to catch, however all were 25-30 inches. Friendly people in the neighborhood. Donna is a very responsive host. This was our second time staying there, and both vacations were great!

Perfect house and location
House very clean and comfortable and well stocked.Felt “at home” immediately. Amazing quiet location on beautiful lake. Having use of kayaks was great. Difficult lake to fish even with tips from host’s brother, however scenery and wildlife made up for it. Quiet roads to walk and pretty sunsets. Very relaxing. Wonderful responsive host. Would highly recommend it!

A hidden gem in the Adirondacks
My husband and I spent over two weeks here in August. The location is perfect for a visit to the Adirondacks with many hiking trails nearby. The lake is lovely and although we don't do any boating it was relaxing to sit by the lake and enjoy the scenery and wildlife. The cabin (aka camp) has very comfortable beds which is usually an issue for us in rentals. The shower was great. The kitchen is well-equipped. Everything was clean and tidy. The overall feeling of the cabin was cozy and comfortable. Since this summer had the most rain since numbers were recorded, the white birch trees have absorbed water and many upper sections of the tree trunks have broken off. A trunk top fell and smashed our windshield. It was easily fixed but we learned not to park near a white birch tree. In Indian Lake there are a few restaurants. We highly recommend The Indian Lake Restaurant which is open for both lunch and dinner but closed on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. The staff is great and the restaurant is clean. Puterko's Pizzeria was also very good but only open for dinner and closed on Mondays. For local color stop at the Bear Trap. We would definitely come back here on another visit to the Adirondacks.

Beautiful Camp
The camp was very nice and well equipped. We saw deer in the yard several times and enjoyed seeing the ducks every morning making their rounds. The lake was nice for paddling, but we didn't have much luck fishing. The area is very quiet with a large private yard. Overall, a nice and relaxing stay.

We had a great time here. We would rent again if we go back to that area. Loved all the wildlife around. Supplies are a lot more expensive in this area so try and bring as much stuff with you as you can. Overall we had a fantastic time.

Great location!
This home was a lot larger than we expected. It could comfortably sleep 7. It was in an ideal location just outside the hamlet of Indian Falls and had an excellent view of lake Akanabee. We enjoyed daily visits from a doe and her fawn. Our only disappointment was that the instructions inside the house forbade us from using the living room fireplace.

Fun, relaxing family getaway w/ older kids ages 15-25. Quiet at cabin, activities w/in 30 min drive
Relax at waters edge, paddle to middle for swim-paddle further for adventure. Rooms quite small, but didn’t deter from our stay. Cabin was sufficient for our week-kitchen had everything, lots of room in living room/yard, plenty of hot water for showering. Donna was easy to reach & quick to answer our questions. Friendly, quiet neighborhood. Couldn’t have been happier.

Wonderful week in the Adirondacks
My husband and I and our adult son spent a very enjoyable week at this camp. The weather was wonderful with a nice breeze off the water. We were less than successful fishing but enjoyed the kayaks. The camp was very comfortable. We brought our ROKU and watched a movie every night after we returned from dinner. We found some wonderful places to eat as none of us cook while on vacation. Very well stocked kitchen if you do want to though. I highly recommend this place. It's quiet, scenic, and a bargain

My husband and I are both young for retirement but retired non the less. I was a supervisor in the laboratory at the hospital on Cape Cod and my husband works part time as a horticulturist. We have two children and three grandchildren.

Why they chose this property

My father built this house and we will never part with it. We grew up going to the Adirondacks when we were little, our kids grew up going and now their kids will grow up running, hiking, boating, snowmobiling, fishing, tubing, skiing, swimming and an all around fun time.

What makes this property unique

You will love the simply lifestyle, this house will bring you back to the good old days, with modern conveniences. Lake Abanakee is a tributary of Indian Lake. Since there are no large boats, it is quiet and perfect for fishing, canoeing and kayaking.
