Little gem in a very quiet and desired neighborhood

Cute little place. Needs some updating. Bathroom kitchen faucets, ceiling fans adjusted or bolted down, curtains or shades in the LR/kitchen that was missing and a shade on the back door for privacy. Door was hard to lock too. And the fire pit we just could not get going. Place was lovely for the two of us we had a great time, just a few little things for the owners to update. Would def love to go back it was clean and bed was very very comfortable. Highly recommended for rest and relaxation which is what we had

We just booked 3rd year in a row

My family loves this place and we are always comfortable. We’ve been there two years in a row and appreciate that they do upkeep the place and add little improvements over time. First time we went with my kids were 3 and 1. This year 4 and 2 so they enjoyed the bunk beds. The house is very warm and the space outside allows my city kids to run around.

Takundewide Retreat

Takundewide is a lovely resort. It is a very spacious well planned property. It has a beautiful sandy beach with a western exposure. Large sun decks over multiple boathouse are perfect for relaxing with an outstanding view of Lake George and amazing sunsets. The accommodations were good and as advertised. Air conditioning was a welcome plus that we were not expecting. The furnishing could be better. The cottage sleeps 7, we were six. The main dining table seats only four with only two chairs and two stools. In the silverware draw were only Four forks, one a salad fork. There were three mismatched plastic wine glasses. A high chair provided does not have a tray and is too low for the counter height table rendering it useless. There was a very musty mildew odor in all of the lower kitchen cabinets indicative of a moisture issue. There were no pot holders in the kitchen. These issues are all relatively minor and were quickly rectified with a run to Target. I point them out for the benefit of the property owners. A nice cottage in such a lovely setting should have adequate furnishings corresponding with the sleeping capacity. All that said, it is a great place with good accommodations. We had a fine time and would come back again.
