Picturesque cabin nestled in the woods. Awesome double rocking chair on the landing looks out over the lake which we really enjoyed. The owner met us to give us keys and the lay of the land and it’s clear he keeps the property very well maintained and very clean. The location is great and we had a great time. Local restaurant the Trailside is close - had terrific food and live music too. We will definitely be returning!

Thank you for your review of our Adirondack cabin and grounds. You mention time spent enjoying the waterfront deck. It offers a perfect place to observe the lake’s wildlife residents — bald eagles, blue herons, osprey, ducks and beaver have delighted renters.

Thank you for spending time at Camp Critters. As you indicate, there is not a sandy beach at the waterfront area. Most of our guests travel 2 miles to the public beach, on adjoining Indian Lake. Mt. View Lake is well known for its excellent fishing and I'm glad the young children enjoyed their off-the-dock fishing experience.

Perfect Adk stay

This camp is beautiful, it’s super private, and the fishing is great. The screened porch was perfect for taking in the surroundings, reading a book, and listening to the rain. The kitchen was well stocked with supplies for cooking and there was ample room for our family of 6. Cabin has lots of games and badminton on the front lawn was fun. We also enjoyed

Family vacation

Excellent location for a relaxing family vacation. Kids loved the cabin, pets loved the outdoors. Two great places to eat near by, the rest of the time we BBQ'd. Climbed a small Mt., which was perfect for kids, did some trout fishing near by and lake fishing with the canoes. Owner is great and as attentive as you need or dont need. Enjoy

We spent a wondeful week in the peace and quiet at the cabin. The cabin is clean, comfortable and had everything we needed for a quiet week away on the lake.

This was a beautiful, relaxing cabin. Our hosts, the Johnson's, have thought of everything and made it available to use. From the canoes and row boat to a walking stick and board games and dvds everything you need for a wonderful vacation is right at your finger tips.
