Clean, cozy, well maintained. Easy check in. Engaging black bear decor throughout the cabin. We enjoyed the bikes, kayaks, and fire pit. A short 3-5 min walk to access the lake. No water view from cabin.

Kind hosts. Extremely clean property, It's clear the owners love and care for the house. There was a notebook filled with 5 years worth of previous guests as well, really making it a testament to how dedicated the hosts are. My family enjoy our 2 nights there

A great location and you honestly don't need to bring anything. Everything you could possible need was provided throughout the cabin. We went up this past weekend during the high temps and that one air conditioner did the trick. We're coming back during the fall. You can't ask for a better host.

Absolute great place to stay. The decor is adorable and on theme with the Adirondacks. They had everything to make our stay as easy as possible and it was definitely walking distance to the beach which was perfect for the kids! The hiking and the kayaking were a huge hit too!

Great place to stay

House was very cute and comfortable, with easy access to snowmobile trails. Driveway was plowed nice and wide with plenty of room to load and unload snowmobiles from a four place snowmobile trailer.

Great family getaway!

The cabin was perfect for "Old Homes Days" weekend (my 47th or so) to visit family and enjoy all the outdoor activities around Wells. We definitely hope to stay here again during ski season. Thank you so much!

We stayed here for a 3-day skiing vacation at Gore Mountain. The location and house were perfect for our needs. Less than a 1/2 hour, traffic-free, beautiful ride to the slopes.

Clean, comfortable, affordable

We had a wonderful stay! We came from camping for 4 days and were ready for some comforts of home. The cabin heated up quickly, it was remarkably clean and non-cluttered, and had everything we needed. A+++ stay!
