Waterfront, Woods, Dock, Privacy, Pet-Friendly, Sleeps 10

This large Adirondack camp offers 3.5 acres of woods, a long, winding driveway with large wooded lots on each side, separating you from the road, traffic and neighbors.

An expansive great room with vaulted ceiling, a massive bay window looking out to Kiwassa Lake, huge stone fireplace, fully equipped kitchen with gas stove, two ovens, a breakfast bar with an expansive view of the lake, opening up to a stone patio with a gas grill, and even better view of the lake.

Bedrooms are very spacious and private, being at opposite ends of the camp, with large windows and great views of the woods and lake. Accommodating up to 10 guests. A bright and inviting atmosphere with large windows that showcase beautiful Kiwassa Lake and mountain views.

The property is heated by a boiler and forced water through baseboard radiators, which heats the rooms quickly, quietly and cleanly.

The living room has plenty of seating, a game table, and massive working stone fireplace for chilly evenings.

The fully equipped kitchen has a breakfast counter with stools on both sides and the dining room holds a large table, seating 8 guests.

There is coffee station with a Keurig, drip coffeemaker, Brewsly espresso coffeemaker, a French Press, and a Cuisinart coffee grinder.

There are 3 spacious bedrooms, a Master bedroom with King size bed and adjacent bathroom, a 2nd Master bedroom with Queen size bed, two Twin beds and a full bathroom, and a smaller bedroom with two Twin size beds, and a half bathroom. There is also a large den with a very comfortable Queen-sized sofabed and incredible views of the lake through huge picture windows. All bedrooms have views of the lake.

The large lawn lakeside leads to the banks of Kiwassa Lake where you can launch a canoe or kayaks.

Scenic and challenging walking trails are a short distance from camp.

Visit Saranac Lake Village (3mi away), the Olympic Village of Lake Placid (12mi away), or just stay home and enjoy the idyllic tranquility and beauty of the nature around you!

Kiwassa Lake
Four of us stayed, ages 58-78. This house is very large and wonderful! It is directly on Kiwassa Lake, and easy to get the provided boats into the water. You can boat (canoe, kayak, flat bottom) to Oseetah Lake, and then into Lake Flower, or use the locks (which was fun!) to get to Second Pond, and then the Saranac Lakes. The home is very quiet and peaceful. You cannot see or hear any neighbors. Downtown Saranac Lake is only three miles away, and then Lake Placid another ten minutes, with endless hiking available!! We will definitely try to make this home a yearly tradition!!

Rustic Charm
A bit more rustic than expected but the host, Alan, was extremely responsive and willing to please, and that goes a long way. He answered any query within minutes. Very peaceful setting with the cries of the loons at night. Great hiking nearby. Two restaurants right in Saranac Lake -- The Left Bank, and Fiddlehead, we're very good.

We had a wonderful Christmas Vacation! Truly a winter wonderland experience. Owner kept us supplied with firewood and maintained walkways (We had some snow). Kept up with communication very well. The house is well-kept and well-supplied. It has beautiful views and and is in a great location- close to Saranac Lake (about 8-10 minutes), only a 18-20 minute drive to Lake Placid, 30 minutes to Whiteface. Definitely considering returning for a summer vacation at the lake!

Amazing!
Exceptional overall experience - from pre-booking questions, to packing up and heading out. The house is quite large, which you can tell from the description, but it’s also spread out, so it would be great for large groups to be together but also have some space. Spacious, very well-appointed kitchen. Squeaky clean. Beautiful lake views, a stone patio overlooking the lake, great local food (Saranac and Lake Placid very close) & lots of hiking opportunities on top of everything else. Big thumbs up for being so dog friendly; our two big dogs loved being with us. We had several cold dreary days and still had an amazing time. Many thanks to Alan, the property manager. Highly recommend.

Alan is a great host
We have not seen the property, but I couldn't fill this out without filling in every category about the experience. We were unable to stay at Alan's property due to last minute illness. But we can say that he is a most responsive host, answering our questions along the way very promptly and even writing a letter for our insurance company to confirm the cancellation policy. A great disappointment not to go to what seems to be a lovely place. Hoping for next year!
