About this property

Our Lion's Den cabin is on fifty acres of pine woods in the Adirondack foothills. Lovingly hand-crafted, we cut down the trees, put them through our sawmill to make the wood and built the cabin ourselves. The property is secluded and very peaceful. We welcome our guests to hike our trails - winter, spring, summer and fall. We are back to nature and use solar power for the lighting in the cabin. As it is 12V, you cannot plug anything into the outlets. We use rainwater for our bathroom (sink, shower and flushing toilet). The cabin has a queen size bed upstairs and a fold-up full size mattress for extra guests. Downstairs the sofa bed opens to a full size mattress. A generous size porch makes for comfortable relaxation. Come see what the quiet is all about and why our guests love the off the grid experience!

I was in town for the solar eclipse and found the property to be all that I wished for. Would love to return for a longer visit. Woodwork was beautiful!

A little slice of happiness and relaxation!

Our fourth winter trip to The Lion’s Den was exactly what our family needed on our annual trip! Back to nature, quality family time, and the most serene, peaceful environment for a few days. Rick is a fantastic host and provides outstanding accommodations. Comfortable beds, a clean cabin, and acres of stunning scenery to enjoy! We cannot wait to return next winter!

Puppy dog's 1st Trip

The mix of creature comforts and offgrid cabin stay are perfect. The directions for the water system are easy to follow and the system is well designed. Firewood is dry/seasoned and the kindling made a quick job of getting the fire going. The weather didnt provide much juice for the solar being winter but wasnt really an issue. I'd recommend bringing a power source for charging phones depending on expected sunlight. The kitchenette is very well equiped and we made some great meals.

Lovely, well-made cabin.

Clean, quaint, perfect for a semi rustic outing. Only got to stay one night of two booked (due to sickness) but it was comfortable and with picnic tables, grill, outdoor fire space, seems like a great spit at which to hang with friends.

About the host

Hosted by Rick and Maria Bohlman

We love sharing our cabins with our guests. So many tell us how much they loved their stay and disconnecting from social media to enjoy the peace and quiet with their families. Many return for another stay...and another.

Why they chose this property

Our off-the-grid cabin offers our guests a unique experience. From pumping their own rainwater for the shower, sink and toilet to using our solar power for the lighting in the cabin, our guests tell us how special the experience of sustainable living was. With 50 acres of pine woods to hike, explore and enjoy, the rolling foothills offers interesting topography. Our cabins are spaced out on the property to insure seclusion and privacy.

What makes this property unique

We're right on the snowmobile trails and just 15 minutes from boat and kayak launches.
We are in the undiscovered area of the Adirondacks. Old Forge is one hour and 15 minutes away. Many of our guests go to Old Forge for the day and then return to the quiet of the cabin.
