My grandparents, with the help of the extended family, built their home from the foundation up located not too far from here in the Adirondacks with the interior being wood. The first-time walking into my place reminded me of their beautiful home and instantly gave me the feeling of being home once again. It also helps to remind me that you should never forget where you come from and to always be grateful for the blessings you have in your life. It helps me to remember all the fun times our family had growing up doing the simplest things together as a family.
In the time that I purchased to now, my family has all helped to make it the home you see today as they each had a hand in it. Tremendous thought went into every detail, not matter how great or small, to make it feel like home for not just my family but yours as well. Examples are the outlets/light covers in the bear or moose room, pictures that I took of the local areas, or the painting that my mom did that is hanging in the living room in hopes that others are able to experience the feeling of "home".
The vision I had when I purchased the property was to create a place that family and friends can come and enjoy the place as much as I do each and every time I come here. My wish is that others are able to come and make memories like I had growing up. In a world of technology and craziness, this is a place to come and reconnect, to build stronger relationships with your loved ones or simply "just be" and enjoy living in the moment. Life is so short and often times we take our time together for granted....

With the property located at the top of a small hill, there is only one other building next to the unit. With it being the end unit, I am next to a stream that runs next to the property and after a heavy rain or snow melt, there is nothing like hearing the peaceful sound of the water running towards the lake while sitting on the porch or listening through an open window. Through out the day you can hear the birds at the lake or at night the sound of the frogs down at the lake. The lake is so close so often times I can be found there, enjoying the water or simply just sitting by the lake enjoying the beauty that surrounds. If you like running like I do, there is a loop I do that passes the golf course and there is nothing like an early morning run when others are still sleeping.
By far my favorite time here is during the winter. The wall where the fireplace has windows from floor to ceiling (including the White Birch room) and to sit by the windows or lay in bed and watch the magic of the freshly falling snow.....feeling as if you are in a snow globe. Add in the holiday lights... just feels magical to me.
Once you stay here, I think you will be able to see and feel what it is that I do. That is what I have envisioned for this property.
