About the host

Hosted by Gene & Shae Barnaby

Host profile image
My husband and I built (literally) this home in 2019 and it was complete April 2020. We grew up together in the Adirondacks. My husband builds homes and I am a Physics teacher and manage the Adirondack Retreat in Athol, NY near Lake George and Gore Mountain. We have 6 children and 4 grandbabies.

We love to travel with our children and we love to travel without them all too! :)

Why they chose this property

This property was built with love and it shows. It is only 11 miles to bustling Lake George Village, only 19 miles to the fabulous Gore Mountain Ski Resort, and sits right in the heart of the Adirondacks. It is the perfect unplugged getaway to reconnect with nature, friends, and family.

What makes this property unique

The screened in porch is the perfect place to relax in the morning with your coffee, watching the sun rise and listening to the birds. The master suite offers a quiet balcony to escape from the activity of your other guests. The game room and patio offer many things to do for the kids or kids at heart with ping pong, foosball, horseshoes, board games, and an abundance of books to read.
