Waterfront Camp with Boathouse - Wifi, kayaks, canoe and sandy bottom out front.

Great location, beautiful lake and mountain views. Cinveniently located a short drive to shopping and dining options. Communication with the host was top notch.

Lovely family cottage shared by caring owners! Boathouse deck is great to enjoy the lake scenery, sun & moon. Our doggy loved swimming after walks around the beautiful neighbohood.

Wonderful week’s vacation at this rental. House is well-equipped, including a counter top ice maker. That was a lovely surprise! We were 6 people all week, 2 additional adults for a few days. Plenty of sleeping options, living area is roomy, comfortable, decorated very Adirondack-y, in a good way. Excellent location. Lake is stunning. So many things to do in the immediate area. Hosts very responsive.

When we first pulled up to the house, we were stunned by the driveway incline & number of stairs up to it, its a cute home/camp, however the housekeeping crew didn't leave the place in tip top shape. The host was wonderful & prompt, she had no idea to the hiccups we ran into. She did her best to make our stay great. We made the best of our trip & the Adirondacks.

The property is conveniently located near Old Forge, and check-in was smooth. We genuinely enjoyed our time overall. However, there are several important details that weren’t disclosed in the listing—especially relevant if you or anyone in your group has mobility challenges.- Trash Disposal: Guests are responsible for taking their trash to an off-site location and must pay for disposal.- Layout Confusion: The house is on one side of the street, while the boat house (featured in the main photo) is across the street. The only level parking is in front of the boat house. - Water Access: Although the listing mentions a sandy bottom, there’s no safe entry or exit point—no ladder is provided, and access requires climbing over uneven boulders.- Stairs & Accessibility: Entry stairs are steep, uneven, and in poor condition. Additional staircases inside lead to the back bedrooms, which may be difficult for those with mobility concerns.- Ants & Food Storage: A note warns guests to store food due to ants, but no designated storage is provided. We kept everything in the fridge and still encountered ants.- Kid Area: the converted attic area is listed as play loft area, which was boarded up with plywood when we arrived, with no explanation.- A new home is being built next door. (Aug 2025)-Grill, cups, plates were filthy (no dishwasher)While the location is a highlight, the property itself is in serious need of renovation and a thorough cleaning.

Home was clean and easy to get into. There were many many stairs to the doors so if you have any mobility issues you will need to rethink the property. Smelled strongly of mothballs and then air freshener. But the amenities were accurately portrayed.

Pleasant family vacation! The canoe and kayaks were a hit with the family. This is definitely a rustic cabin, the loft for kids is a converted attic space but it worked. Plenty of space for our family of 10. There was major construction going on at the house next door, wish we had known that in advance. We vacuumed as requested in the contract after unclogging the entire vacuum, not sure how anyone cleaned prior to that! Overall a nice weekend getaway.

Our overall stay was good, we had great weather, and the top of the boat house was amazing with the views of the lake. When we first entered the home, it smelled very stale like the windows have not been open in months. We found a candle and opened the windows before the rest of the guests came. There absolutely needs to be more lights on the outside stairs at night. The stairs are steep, and we had to use our lights on our phones to go up and down the stairs at night. It’s dangerous. The neighbors did watch our every move while we were outside and that was a bit of an uneasy feeling-we ended up not having a fire either night because we were being watched. The owner let us know before that we came about the neighbors. Not sure why this listing has a cleaning fee as we needed to sweep, vacuum, do dishes and put them all away, strip beds, and put any linen and towels that we used in the wash and ran through a cycle. Cleanliness of the house was ok.

We had a nice time staying at this property. It was well maintained. The location is wonderful. We enjoyed both mornings out in the deck and evenings playing games at the large kitchen table.

We had an amazing stay. The weather, setting , and company were perfect. This was our 3rd time staying.

Very conveniently located near water park and downtown. Three big bed rooms with two bathrooms. And a loft for the kids. Really nice boat house to chill and watch the water or boats. Great access to water for kayaking and canoeing. They also supplied a canoe. Highly recommended staying here.

House was great! House was supplied with paddle boat, standing surfboard Row boat and kayaks ! Very well stocked with everything! Would strongly recommend!!
