This is our second time staying, but this time our extended family rented all four cabins. Ideal location with a beach and shallow water for the 7 kids ranging in age from 1.5 to 13. The location is also within wakking distance to the public beach, again, ideal for families with small children. We had everything we needed and the kids could run around freely without having to worry, it was like being on your own little island.

Family vacation

Such a nice place to stay with family. Suggestions: better lighting. Cabins very dark. Also maybe work on mustiness of some cabins. We understand cabins in the woods can get musty but maybe some deodorizer will help. Other than that, great time had by all. Would definitely recommend this for family gatherings.

Great Place For Family Getaway

Terrific place for a large group! Cabins were just as described. We were an extended multi-generational family with 11 adults ranging in ages from mid 60's to mid 20's, with an infant and a toddler as well. Moose was large enough for all of us to be together, and we were able to arrange some picnic tables and Adirondack chairs outside to be able to eat comfortably. The lake is beautiful, and having canoes, rowboats and kayaks made it even better. The firepits were lovely to gather around in the evenings.

Colby Cabins Stay

We reserved all four cabins for our family of 7 adults (ages 32-70) and 7 children (ages 6 mths to 8 yrs) and all were comfortably accommodated. The cabins, property and locality were exactly as described in the listing. Huda and Ethan were communicative and responded promptly to any questions. As Grandparents, my wife and I stayed in the Loon cabin which was very comfortable overall, but we found the bathroom to be a little tight. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and several in our group suggested that we come back next year. Thank you Huda & Ethan for hosting us.

Overall we had a really pleasant stay at this property - definitely some pros and cons to weigh when considering whether it's right for you. Having the four cabins for our multi-generational get together was amazing - being together, but still having some privacy was fantastic and is absolutely the biggest selling point. The little private sandy beach right there is also so great for little kids to play in all day. The big con though is the very busy major road. We had read about it in other reviews and I somehow imagined it to be just a 35mph car busy, but it's trucks, ambulances, etc going 50mph. There's a hospital, car dealership and big National Grid facility all in view from the beach. The convenience to town is really nice, so I would consider this a house near town that happens to be on a lake, rather than vice versa. It is absolutely not a secluded peaceful lake retreat. Cabins were pretty clean - linens and hard surfaces all felt like they get cleaned regularly. They could use a deep clean for things like dusty ceiling fans, cobweb corners, etc - but for a cabin type stay I'd say these were cleaner than most. Well kitted out with kitchen utensils, plates, etc. The crib was really handy for our one year old - though they are absolutely not baby proofed in any other way! (I didn't expect them to be, but just FYI). If it weren't for the road this would be a 10/10 - a great property, but make sure you have accurate expecations about the setting.

Camp Colby

We had a great week at the property - there were 9 kids and 7 adults ; we rented all 4 cabins. Kids had a great time going back and forth between the cabins - property manager and owner were super responsive the entire time. Lake Colby is great for the kids - the public beach is right next door and the lake is quiet enough the kids can paddle/swim with no concern. Spent a day in Lake Placid and a rainy day at a nearby Nature Center ; also rented some Paddleboards for the week. We hope to make it back again soon!

Great Family Vacation

We had 4 families in our party (4yrs to 71yrs, totaling 14ppl) so the 4 separate cabins were perfect. Each cabin had its draw. Bear ended up being our common gathering space for nighttime games because of the layout, Fish had a great covered/screened in porch that was perfect for morning coffee when it was drizzly, Moose had a super open kitchen and great deck facing the lake, and Loon had the best communal fire pit with enough room for us all to gather. Moose/Bear were definitely more updated than Loon/Fish (carpeting in Loon was tough being so close to the sandy boat-launch/beach). The beds were pleasantly comfortable! Everyone who was in a bed slept GREAT! Only thing I would add to my wish list is that there were more of them... Moose had a ton of space but not a lot of beds - we had to bring a blow up mattress, which was fine because the living room was huge so we made it work, but another bed or pull-out couch would have been a great addition. Again, not a big deal, but the space is there, so more sleeping accommodations would be cool! The cabins were stocked! If you couldn't find something in your cabin, another had it. **Mentioning this because of another review - if you're looking for remote ADK lodging, this probably isn't the place for you. You can hear/see cars from property but it didn't bother most of us. We enjoyed the convenience of the town nearby and being so close to Lake Placid. Huda and Ethan were awesome hosts, friendly and accomodating!

Beautiful, very well appointed cabins in a “compound” like atmosphere.

We traveled with our adult children and their families and used all 4 cabins. It was a perfect set up for everyone to have their own space and yet be together in the lake, by the fire, or together in the larger cabin for dinner and games. All of the cabins were unique, very clean, and really had all we needed. The kitchens are well stocked, including paper towels, dish soap, bags, etc. if one cabin didn’t have a blender (for instance) the other ones did. There was a nice basket in each cabin that supplied us with all kinds of extras-toothbrushes, bug spray, coffee pods, tea, pens, paper, etc. it was really nice touch and much appreciated. We loved that our little ones could be just about anywhere and we didn’t have to worry about a road of any kind because the cabins sit down in a little area down a hill away from everything. The lake is beautiful, we had a visiting loon and fishing from the shore was pretty good if you are just fishing for fun. It was a great place to teach our 4 year old grandson how to fish. It was an easy jaunt into town and not far away from some great hiking and sightseeing. Don’t miss Donaldsons for fabulous soft serve ice-cream! Our only surprise and complaint is how close we were to the highway, which brought noise and street lights to an otherwise sweet spot We are a family who seeks solitude, and we were rightly or wrongly anticipating a more quiet location. Nighttime’s out by the fire and mornings were interrupted with noise and ligh

Great Family Vacation at Lake Colby

Huda and Ethan were terrific hosts! The four cabins were perfect for our family gathering. The water was steps from the doors of the cabins, and the kayaks and canoes were well used during our stay. The kitchens were outfitted with everything we needed to prepare meals, beds were comfortable, and air conditioning much appreciated on those 85-degree days when we all needed a break from the heat. Definitely thinking about a return visit next year!

We rented all four cabins for a family group. It was perfect as you have time together but your own privacy too. Had a great time. The only negative would be the comfort of the sleeper sofa beds. Probably ok for younger kids but not for adults. It was peaceful and relaxing and we even had a family of otters to entertain us.

Great winter getaway

We wanted to experience Lake Placid but did not want the hotel feel. We found these cabins which would accommodate our large family (3 different families) yet still allow us to hang in one place and be together! We went to white face, Titus mountain and lake placid and the drive to and from all was easy. The surroundings are beautiful and peaceful. Exactly what we were looking for! Would definitely consider these cabins again!

Fabulous trip!

The lake is beautiful and we really enjoyed the sandy beach right in front of the Loon Cabin. Having four cabins worked out very well, especially during this time. We kayaked, canoed, had nightly campfires, and the great weather enabled us to eat every dinner outside. Huda is exceptionally responsive, which we greatly appreciated, both before and during the stay. Would happily stay here again.

Great for family reunions

We had such a great stay at this property. The kids loved it and had so much fun on the water. It affords each family privacy because you have your own cabin, but there is still the feeling of togetherness . We ranged in ages from six to eight three and a great time was had by all! The cabins are darling and there is plenty to do/see in the area. Highly recommend this rental, especially for a large group.

About the host

Hosted by Huda T Scheidelman

My husband and I live in the Hudson Valley but are lucky enough to be a short drive away from the beautiful Adirondack State Park.

We provide fresh towels and linens and in the summer months, beach towels and life jackets for guests. In warm weather months, guests can choose from two row boats, two canoes and 3 kayaks which are kept at our private beach.

This cabin is a two minute walk to the public beach and a one minute drive to the public boat launch. We offer check-in or check-out on Saturdays from the third week of June to the first week of September.

Why they chose this property

These cabins are on a beautiful lake where one can enjoy swimming or use of any of our 7 boats. A short drive away are excellent golf courses, some of the best hiking on the East Coast and great down hill skiing and snow boarding. Our cabins are insulated and heated year round and renters will enjoy the serenity of Lake Colby and the wonderful village of Saranac Lake any month of the year.

What makes this property unique

Our cabins are furnished and decorated with the history of the Adirondacks in mind, but with all of the comforts you would enjoy in your own home: AC, WIFI and Smart TV's. Enjoy fresh coffee on Lake Colby in the morning and a beer at the fire pit lakeside at sunset.
