Wonderful location being on the lake, and the dock was perfect! It was so relaxing sitting in the adirondack chairs at the end of the dock. My son was able to fish.Inside the house, the kitchen, living area, and bathroom were very clean and beautifully upgraded! However, the bedrooms need a lot of work; it took a couple of nights to be comfortable in the bedroom. However, the beds themselves were comfortable and very clean. The house is on the small side but perfect for our family of three plus our dog.Any amenity you could think of was provided in the house. The property managers were very communicative. Overall a great trip! Its very easy to drive to restaurants, Saratoga Springs, the racetrack, etc. Would recommend the house.

Ladies get-away trip
The house was lovely and we had a great time.I misunderstood about what water toys we were able to use (email vs the instructions at the house). I should have contacted the host for clarifications.But other than that everything was great.

Cute Home on the lake! House was slightly dated with regard to bedrooms but the location and the views are spectacular. It was perfect for the long weekend and loved how quiet the area was. Would stay again if traveling back to the area!

A quiet, lovely lakeside community vacation.
A very nice partially renovated camp with beautiful view of lake. Bedrooms still to be renovated and these areas were short on the full comfort of A/C however, fans are provided for each room and the bedding was comfortable. Kitchen complete with plenty of dishes & cooking equipment. Bathroom newly renovated with washer/dryer & complete with generous amount of linens and supplies. Owners prompt with replies. Extremely generous with food staples in case you forgot something. I would definitely return to this clean & comfortable vacation home. Even our dog loved it!

Picture Perfect!
The setting and location for this property was perfect! Access to many restaurants, local events and grocery store were all super convenient. The property boasts a beautiful dock with paddle board, fishing poles and lakefront access to a beautiful setting.
No one should be disappointed staying at this property. It was a great time and a beautiful place for my children and I to enjoy.

Amazing views
The water views are incredible from the updated interior. Hanging out in Adirondack chairs on the dock was priceless, truly enjoyed relaxing at the lake.
