This rare Gem is a private family retreat located on Paradox Lake in the heart of the Adirondacks.

Built in the tradition of the Adirondack Great Camps, but with a modern interpretation, the house sits at the end of a private road. The Camp offers comfort, natural and architectural beauty, anda wide variety of outdoor activities year-round.

The Home:
Large windows throughout the house make the home bright and allow Spectacular views.

The heart of the home is a large central great room that contains the living, dining and kitchen spaces. It has a stone fire place and exposed trusses that extend beautifully across this area.
The living, dining and kitchen areas feature large picture windows with views of the lake, beach and lawn.
The kitchen is fully outfitted for a chef..
A large screen porch with Mahogany floors allow ample room for breezy indoor-outdoor living and entertaining. The porch also has a dart board, a 9 foot pool table, shuffleboard table and is the perfect place to spend a lazy afternoon. There is an outdoor cement ping pong table and a full volleyball court for the competitive at heart.

The use of natural materials throughout the house, including stone, wood, and glass, combined with modern finishes, high ceilings, and ample spaces gives the house a light and airy feeling.

The home has three bedrooms and a loft, and can comfortably accommodate a 6-8.

The Property:
This home sits just steps from the beach. Relax on the screened-in porch which overlooks Paradox Lake as you listen to the calls of the loon, watch a blue heron take off and an occasional eagle fly over the bay. Swim out to the raft and gaze out onto the lake. Sit on the sandy beach in an Adirondack chair. You will not be disappointed!

The house sits at the end of our private dead end road offering quiet privacy. The property boasts a large sandy walk out beach and plenty of safe sheltered room for swimmers.

The property has several miles of State trails within one mile for hiking, cross country skiing and is located right next to the Snowmobile trail system

Paradox Lake:
Paradox Lake is one of the jewels of the Adirondacks, known for its clean water, natural beauty, wildlife and great fishing. The 3.8 mile long lake is large enough to allow for all forms of water activities but also small enough to offer peace and tranquility.

BOATS:
There maybe private dock space available only upon further discussion, terms met and agreed upon. You MAY NOT bring any motorized boat without prior notification and terms must be meet including proof of insurance with rider covering your stay and proof of completion of NYS boaters certification course as required by NY. This is strictly adhered to. You must have your boat cleaned and inspected at boat wash station prior to launching in Paradox or Schroon Lakes. All boats are launched at the State Launch on the North East end of lake. Note: Milfoil is an invasive weed that we are trying to eradicate from Paradox. Please stay 100 feet away from any orange marker bottles.

We do have a small 5hp. motorized fishing boat available to rent upon request.

The Adirondacks:
The Adirondack Park is the largest state park in the country, comprising some 6.1 million acres, including 2.3 million acres of “forever wild” Forest Preserve and wilderness. The majestic Adirondack Mountains are contained within the park, along with thousands of pristine lakes, streams, farms, and towns. Celebrated by mountaineers, skiers, tourists, artists and poets alike, the Adirondacks offers something for everyone throughout the seasons

Just 3 tenths of a mile off the Northway (87) This beautiful Camp is ideally located and easily accessible throughout most of the year and is in close proximity to the high peaks, Lake Placid, Whiteface Mountain, Lake George, Gore Mountain, and Vermont.

    We had a wonderful time at the Paradox lake house! There’s so much to do for kids. We enjoyed the tree swing, pool table, darts, toys, and of course playing in the sand and swimming. The beach is a very short walk from the house. The house very clean and was spacious enough for my family. Mike suggested some fun activities nearby such as hikes, and a buffalo farm. We hope to visit again!

    Myself, two brothers and father rented for the week. Such a beautiful house and property with pleanty to do on site from lake activities to playing pool and grilling. The entire home is beautifully kept and has every ammenity you can imagine needing. The neighborhood is quiet and everyone is very friendly (when you see them as its a very quiet area).The view from anywhere on the property or inside looking out was beautiful as well!Mike was an awesome host, funny and friendly as they come! We look forward to renting again as this truely is a one of a kind property!!PS- Highly suggest asking about his motor boat to rent, made the lake expriience that much better!- The Fear Family

    “Just a dream” is an incredible cabin on the best lake in the Adirondacks! This place really is all that it’s cracked up to be and the neighbors are as lovely as the home itself. Mike and Robyn are great owners and are hands on with any questions you may have. My wife, kids and I absolutely loved the accommodations and are already looking forward to next year!

    We had a wonderful stay at Paradox lake!! The house is lovely and well maintained. The screened in porch is perfect for hanging out day and night, living room is big and great for rainy day lounging, and there is plenty of sleeping space. The property is beautiful with shared beach and gorgeous mountain views over the amazing lake! Overall, was the perfect place to stay with friends, family, and young children.
