Property was as stated in their ad, clean and neat, nice views and wonderful hosts. this would be a great place for people who enjoy the water for swimming and kayaking.
Everything was great! Tom and Cookie were the perfect hosts making sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. Tom even offered to help unload the car when we arrived. The cabin was pristine. It was comfortable and equipped anticipating any and all our needs. The outdoor areas made our quiet stay enjoyable. We definitely will be returning!
I can’t saying enough about this place. From the wonderful owners to the beautiful house to the gorgeous lake it was amazing. Me and my day enjoyed every minute of it. Despite having not so great weather we took full advantage of the fishing ( caught tons of fish ) to the kayaking to the walks around the area to just sitting toin the house and relaxing it was all worth it. Tom and cookie were amazing . We would definitely come back again. Ty tom and cookie
Pictures don’t do it justice! Amazing weekend stay at this perfect lakeside cottage! It’s in a great location if you want a nice peaceful vacation (nearby towns are 20mins away; small convenience store and coffee place less than 2 mins away). Tom and Cookie greeted us when we arrived and even gave a little tour- very nice couple. Their house is right next to the cottage, but they were so respectful of our privacy, we didn’t see them very often. The lake was great to kayak on (they provide 2 single person kayaks), very calm and clear with nice scenery. Not a very busy lake which was great. The cottage itself was super clean, bed was comfy, equipped with essentials. Only thing is that the bedroom can get a little warm since the AC unit is in the living area. We opened the glass sliding door and slept with just the screen door and it was nice :) Would absolutely recommend and would love to come back!
This was our second time renting this lovely cottage in Wells. We enjoyed the accommodations and the amenities especially the kayaks!
Thank you!

Lakewood Haven is the cleanest, most adorable cottage and we had a wonderful stay. Tom and Cookie are wonderful hosts, and the home has everything you could ask for. If you're in the area, do yourself a favor and stay at this delightful little house.
Everything was perfect. The hosts were incredibly kind and accommodating. The cottage was beautiful and organized well. It was spotless and clearly cared for. And the sunrises were simply amazing. I will make every effort to stay again. I can’t recommend this spot enough.
We had a wonderful week staying at Lakewood Haven. The cottage was cozy and we loved the Adirondack decor. Everything we needed was provided and we wouldn't hesitate to stay there again. Great place to relax.
We had a great little family getaway. The house was perfect size for our family but wish there was a little more privacy. The hosts were very nice and easy to get a hold of if needed.
Great place. Right on the lake, modern interior, a deck and screened in porch, kind and friendly hosts. Our stay was short but i would go back.
Cons: its smooshed really close to other houses, and the shower had a few hairs from the guests before us (but there was a very fast turn around so the cleaning was probably quicker)
Our stay at this cozy cabin was absolutely delightful! The cabin itself was charming and comfortable, providing the perfect getaway. What really made our experience special were the hosts, Tom and Cookie. They went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed and felt right at home. We can't wait to return to this hidden gem!

Fantastic vacation!
We loved our recent trip to the Lakewood Haven. The house was immaculate and had everything we needed. The lakefront, dock, yard were all so relaxing. The owners were extremely nice and we enjoyed meeting them. This was our baby's first lake vacation and the property was perfect for her. We look forward to returning.
My husband had work in the area, and my two year old and I accompanied him on the trip. This is where we lodged. The house and setting were so peaceful and quiet, and the owners were very hospitable and thoughtful in their accommodations and interactions with us. If we return to this area, we would stay here again!
The property is a rare find. Immaculate, well equipped, beautiful setting on a quiet lake. The owners ( Cookie & Tom) provide a beautiful property for an excellent vacation.
WE brought our Grandson, Wyatt with us for his first trip to the Adirondacks and he had a ball. We loved the cottage and Wells. Our only gripe is that Wells is 2 hours from anything.
The cabin was exactly as described. We appreciated the cleanliness and the well stocked kitchen. Tom and Cookie were very gracious and helpful hosts. We hope to come back. Thank you the use of your place.
