About this property

Lonesome Pond Lodge - Ideal Lakeside Retreat

Perfectly situated on Kiwassa Lake, Lonesome Pond Lodge is a newly renovated lakeside cottage, just minutes away from the best of the Adirondacks. This 4 bedroom / 2 bathroom, two-story lakeside cottage is seamlessly connected to the outdoors with a large balcony on the second floor, a screened-in porch off the first floor family room, a dock and boathouse, and a firepit. Enjoy our canoe, kayak, paddleboard, and fishing gear.
Currently renovating Spring 2021, this is our first season as owners.

We're renovating this Spring so we'll soon have more pictures. Our two-story house sits at the perfect spot on Kiwassa Lake. Downstairs is a family room, three bedrooms (two twins; two twins; and a queen), a full bathroom with a bathtub, and a screened-in porch with a sitting area and a daybed with two twin mattresses if you'd like to try sleeping on the porch.

On the second floor is a light-filled south facing living room and dining room opening up to a large deck. Also on this level is the kitchen and the master bedroom with en-suite bathroom (with a shower, not a bathtub).

Lakeside, you'll find Adirondack chairs surrounding a large firepit, a dock and boathouse, stocked with fishing gear, life vests, a kayak, canoe, and paddleboard. Bring your own boat, or rent one in town. In addition to the private boat house, there's a (shared) boat launch nearby.

The entry into the lake is a sandy shore with crystal clear waters and sandy bottom (no algae, weeds, lillies, rocks etc).

2.2 miles to the town of Saranac Lake

Dogs are welcome, VRBO will add $100 fee to your booking. Please just be sure pick up all poop from outside.
