AVOID THIS HOUSE LIKE THE PLAGUE

This house is not worth the price that was paid due to the numerous problems we had with the house’s condition and the property manger/owners. The house is not well kept with cobwebs everywhere and unwashed floors and surfaces. The current pictures on the ad are from the old owners and do not reflect the current setup/condition of the house. When we first moved in and checked the kitchen for space for our stuff, food was caked on to some utensils, we had to run everything through the dishwasher and all the counters had to be washed. After about an hour of moving in, we checked the bottom of our socks since shoes aren’t allowed in the house and they were black from just being in the kitchen. Then contacting the property manager did not help at all. The property manager was completely unprofessional with handling our situation and kept making excuses or deflecting as to the problems we were having with the house. The property manager contacted the owners who also were no help at all, by this time we were 3 hours into moving into the house. The owners said we had 2 options to either leave with a full refund or stay with no discount to compensate us for that we had deal with. Unfortunately for us the amount of work that went into unpacking, and the idea of packing back up and going home was not in the cards for us. The other thing that caught us by surprise was the unusual about of cash deposit wanted to use the floating raft. That was not listed on the ad for the house and because of all the problems we had with the manager & owners we decided it was best to not give them the cash deposit and just not bother to use the raft. We ended up making the best out of the situation. However we did contact VRBO to see if they could help and they were unable to do anything, we were informed that the owners have final say. Do not bother renting this property, it will be a waste of your money. Star Lake itself was beautiful but avoid this house like a plague.

About the host

Hosted by Naira Aslanyan

We are two sisters - Alla and Naira who love outdoors very much: mountain climbing, canoeing, whitewater rafting, skiing, fishing and more. Many years ago we were lucky to find out about wonderful place called Adirondacks and traveling there to enjoy the serenity of it all we had a dream to one day be proud homeowners in the area and so we did in 2021! Since we both work full time and take care of the family, we decided that some part of the year we can rent the house out and let others discover joy of Adirondack Park just like once we did. We have travelled the world and seen a lot and know for sure that there is no place like here!

Why they chose this property

Beautiful house on the Star Lake! The Star Lake is available and accessible only to those who have a house on it; this is definitely the hidden gem of the Adirondacks! You will find serenity and enjoy the time on the lake with family and friends. And after the day is done; you can relax by fire pit down by the lake on your own private beach or sit on the porch enjoying the sunset or reading a book. This house is simply wonderful.
With four comfortable bedrooms and various bed arrangements, you can come with a big family or group of friends.
Currently there is no large grocery store, we have UB's for meat and other goodies and Circle K also for beyond basics. So pack your favorite foods and things you feel you can't live without.
We also have COVID protocols in place so we ask that you bring your own bedding and towels.
There is so much to do in this region and see so whether you are active vacationer or one who loves to wind down and relax- you all will find this place will exceed your expectations!

What makes this property unique

The lake is spring fed making the water crystal clear and very inviting to play and swim. There is a large sand bar located about 30 yards away were the water is only a foot deep. A great place to enjoy the lake. We have a wonderful selection of boats so you can paddle away on the lake and enjoy it fully. The house is equipped with a floating dock with a motor so you can move to the sand dune and hangout for fun- this is a unique Star Lake activity, you will see many chilling on the floating docks and enjoying it. We have a grill for you so you can do a BBQ on the porch and enjoy time on the Lake Fire pit down by the lake so you can relax on Adirondack Chairs and listen to Tajar Tales. There is a Golf Course five minutes from the house. Many of the unique sightseeing locations are a little over an hour drive (but totally worth it): Lake Placid with its Olympic Center, Saranac Lake with Robert Louis Stevenson Cottage, Thousand Islands - visit castles, Nature Center in Tupper Lake; Numerous hiking trails, fishing opportunities, nature walks, and so much more
