A True Rustic Cabin with Private Access to Bass Lake and Hiking Trails

This rustic and quaint cabin comes with direct, private access to Bass Lake. Perfect for the active couple or family that enjoys nature and hiking, or the couple/family just looking for some peace and fresh air. Loon Lake is with-in walking distance- with great fishing! Perfect for those who do not want to leave their furry family behind, lots of room for dogs to run without worry of traffic. Our cabin has an indoor screened-in porch for those rainy summer nights. A Jotul Wood Stove for those chilly fall and winter nights and a Gazebo screen-house outside by the lake, for a nice cup of coffee in the morning. We are located 40 miles from the Olympic Village of Lake Placid and 48 minutes to the city of Plattsburgh, NY. We are looking forward to your reservation! Enjoy your stay and camp as you like it!

Disappointed with the location of the home, it was not on the lake, but across the street. The photos in the listing are misleading. The cabin was good, however the hot water for the shower was off and when the owner replied we could turn it on, but it leaks. The kitchen stove was electric, and the larger burner did not work. The cooking and dishware was old and not sufficient. Although I had a good time with my son's we all were disappointed with some of the accommodations. The property is not worth the cost per day due to the above items I have noted. Jose Velez

Very dirty upon discovering the cabin late at night - cobwebs and mice droppings all over bedding ! Disgusting and clearly never prepped for guests at all . Dead mice and bugs on window sills. Mice droppings in drawers too. VRBO not providing any monitory relief either. If clean it would have been a nice place. Clearly a disaster

Peter, Im sorry for this negative review. Im not sure how any of this could have happened in the hours between cleaning the camp and your arrival. You informed me you would arrive late. I made sure to leave multiple lights on. We did not receive any concerns during your stay and would have been happy to resolve any issues you had immediately. We remain committed to providing a clean comfortable retreat for guests looking to enjoy a peaceful stay in nature.

We had a beautiful stay at the cabin. The leaves were newly turning and it is close to many places for a walk in the woods. We hiked to the loom lake fire tower, kayaked, made marshmallows and enjoyed the outdoors. Also found a large amount of chicken of the woods mushrooms in the woods behind the cabin!

A peaceful getaway.

We had a very quiet stay at the camp and enjoyed ourselves. The lake was somewhat difficult for me to get back and forth from because of a mobility issue.

This is a great place! The beds are comfortable, the kitchen is stocked, the screen room is perfect for coffee in the morning, the fishing (off the shore) is fantastic, the boats are plenty and the memories we make here are priceless! We are return campers year after year! Mary responds quickly to any messages. If you are looking for a rustic get-a-way in a very private setting this place is perfect! We are already planning for next summer.

Perfect getaway

Camp Asulykit was absolutely perfect for a quiet getaway. The house is on a quiet road across from Bass Lake, where we spent time daily either jumping off the floating dock, watching loons, kayaking, or letting our dogs play. The house had everything we needed and is close to some great hiking. We would love to be able to go back someday.

Relaxing and serene cabin

Great and remote location! Really liked the layout of the cabin, though the outdoor patio and lakeside table were hard to use with the dust. The lake was pretty! It's not swimmable this time of year with the tadpoles.

A special lakeside retreat

Bass Lake is small but big on beauty and serenity. The waterfront amenities really stood out…a screened gazebo, a swimming dock, canoes and kayaks, a cozy fire pit …and a loon to watch and listen to at night. Hosts very responsive when we had questions…many thanks for the flannel sheets and lots of firewood.

About the host

Hosted by Mary Whitney

Host profile image
Owners include a busy Registered Nurse and Carpenter who have three grown children, grandkids and a whole family of fur friends. The property was originally acquired for a quiet get away outside of how busy life can get. We've been provided such a relaxing safe harbor for our family, and in turn would like to share it with others.

Why they chose this property

A perfect true get-a-way while still being close to main activity destinations. This cabin can be whatever you like it to be. A home away from home in the fresh crisp mountain air and blustering views. Mountain, Lake Therapy while still remaining modest at its core.
