Our Story
Welcome to our Jay cabin! We do hope you enjoy your stay at our home. It was a long journey to have the house the way you see it today. A little bit about ourselves, we are both New Yorkers, one born and bred the other mostly bred but as good as born. As much as we love the city, we fell in love in the great outdoors and have taken every chance we can to enjoy the incredible beauty that the Adirondacks offers.
This house was originally built off the grid, no plumbing, heat or electricity. The builder lived in the small sheds you see at the back of the property. Being kind of city people, we needed a bit more creature comfort, flushing toilet and heat that didn’t involve chopping wood. So over a couple of years we added more infrastructure to the house with the completion of the chef’s kitchen in 2019. It took an enormous amount of work as we had to stitch together several trade craft and fill in the in-betweens ourselves.
The house is what we would love to live and stay in and combines elements of things we loved in other vacation stays. We look forward to sharing our home with you.
