Owners took care of everything we needed very beautiful place
We had a fantastic vacation. The kids enjoyed swimming and fishing off the dock. The adults enjoyed early morning kayaking and enjoying morning coffee with a beautiful view.
This property was great for our 50th wedding aniversary celabration. Beautful view and short walk to sandy beach. There are ac units in every spacious bedroom. Handicap bathroom with shower was a surprise which one of our guests needed. The rental was stocked well. We are definitely going back next year. The hosts were easy to communicate with.
Great
House and neighborhood great. We enjoyed the lake, Placid and high falls gorge!
We enjoyed our stay. It was close to everything we wanted to do. I would recomend.
We had a great time soaking in all the lake vibes!
Comfortable family home, beautiful view of lake, close to town, and very responsive and helpful owner.
This house is well taken care of and sits right on the lake with a lovely view of Crab island, the ferries coming and going from Cumberland Head and Grand Isle in the distance and a sparkling sunrise on the water. The birds sing all day. The waves lap against the shore, and the built out room off of the kitchen overlooks it all. The neighborhood is quiet and well kept, and it is a ten minute drive to SUNY. The owners respected our privacy and responded immediately to any communications. There was no real need to contact them during the visit because the house so we’ll set up for us and the directions were so clear, but we had questions before we came to the house, when we were deciding whether to rent it, and they were very accommodating. I recommend the house highly.
I stay in Plattsburgh most of November as I have a daughter who plays hockey at the university. I was happy with the location and beautiful views the property provided. Beds were comfortable and there was plenty of extra blankets if needed. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes and cookware.
Great convenient location. We loved the sunrises. Comfortable beds, fully stocked kitchen.
Great place to stay. Incredible view.
We visit family in Plattsburgh each summer and were happy to stay at this very spacious and comfortable home. Beautiful views of the lake and the little beach in the neighborhood was perfect for my young grandson. Everything was great!
Wonderful location, very spacious home with large bedrooms. Had a great time, the lake and property was beautiful
To start with the positives, this house is in a great location and has an amazing view of the lake. The house is quite spacious and has a fully stocked kitchen. On the other side of things, the dock was not installed for our stay which was very disappointing, the owner did what they could to get it installed in time but it did seem it was mostly out of their control. The house does feel a bit outdated, but could be dealt with. The biggest concern we had is the bugs. The yard was almost unusable due to the swarm of bugs that were around all sides of the house. It was nearly impossible to walk even from the driveway into the house without a face full of bugs.
This house is huge and has everything you need! Beautiful views of the lake and great neighborhood. Host was a great communicator. Definitely recommend!
We thought it would be nice to bring our kids and their families on a weekend getaway. Friends have a camp in Cumberland Head, so we've been to the area before. Found this spot, and snatched up the only holiday weekend still available for the year. I'm so glad I found it. The neighborhood is dense, but so quiet & friendly. There was a private beach just up the road. The backyard is right on the lake. We spent 99% of our time out there or in the screened in porch enjoying it all. Only disappointment was the dock wasn't in yet, but we made due. The owner came in put in the slip, so we were able to go kayaking one of the days. It's a spot I'd definitely go back to, and hope to be able to soon!
It was wonderful! Thanks again for having such a great.place for our family!
