Peaceful, cozy cabin in great location

Cozy cabin in a quiet, lovely spot surrounded by woods. Feels secluded, but conveniently located near town. The cabin had everything we needed, and we enjoyed fires in the beautiful fireplace every night. We would definitely stay here again. Exactly what we needed.

September in the woods

We had a lovely time at Camp Dakota! It is located within walking distance to State Trail Heads, short drive to Old Forge for shopping and close to Inlet & Eagle Bay for great hiking trails along Rt. 28 & Big Moose Road. The location is very quiet and peaceful.

Perfect wooden oasis

We booked this property to stay during our wedding weekend. It was perfectly hidden in the woods with owls hooing at night. If you’re looking for a quiet space to enjoy your Adirondack stay, look no further!

Great stay

Great location and very clean home. Property was very nice and porch was great. Photos of the main room make it appear slightly larger than it is but that’s not unusual for these listings. And we did have a family of six. Wonderful family vacation.

About the host

Hosted by Susan and Steven Humphrey

Steven & Susan Humphrey have been coming to Old Forge for many years and are excited to share their home to allow others to experience the beauty and all the Adirondacks has to offer. The Humphrey are natives of the Utica / Rome area and Old Forge is our home away from home. This area is truly a piece of Heaven on Earth and all of us thoroughly enjoy each moment we get to spend here.

Why they chose this property

Camp Dakota was named after the Humphrey's 4-legged friend Dakota, who is now in doggy heaven. Camp Dakota is truly a dream come true and we are so excited to share it with you!

What makes this property unique

Camp Dakota is a very tranquil, cozy and private cabin providing an opportunity to unwind and reconnect with loved ones and friends. We hope you enjoy the beauty of the Adirondacks as much as we do.
