About this property

Family Reunion Waterfront Paradise! Private Lake. Boats included!

Evergreen Camp is set on Silver Lake, a calm, private lake across the street from Cranberry Lake. Evergreen Camp is a family-oriented, historic hunting lodge with 8 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. There is a small beach and a grassy shoreline with sandy lake bottom - small children easily wade into the lake. The large, well-equipped kitchen and ample seating make it easy to cook for and serve the whole, big family in style. Set right on the water with panoramic views of the lake and islands. There are plenty of boats: 2 canoes, large rowboat, kayak, and stand-up board; 2 boat docks and a floating dock (for diving). The great room is large enough to handle the 'whole crowd' for meals. Any overflow is easily accommodated on the large screened porch. 2 refrigerators, 2 stoves, two gas-grills, and a barbeque pit make cooking for a crowd easy. The beds are all real beds (with comfortable mattresses) in actual bedrooms with doors that shut, for your 'good night's sleep' and privacy. The private Silver Lake Shoreowners' nature trails include sections that can be walked by everyone from the very young to the very old. One master bedroom and a walk-in shower on first floor provide ease of access for those who need it. Enjoy a peaceful, family spot in Northwoods paradise. Pets considered. IF YOU MIND THE OCCASIONAL COBWEB OR HAVE TROUBLE CHANGING A LIGHT BULB BY YOURSELF, THIS IS NOT THE PLACE FOR YOU!!! Also, please note that we only rent by the week from Mid-June to Mid-September. Please contact us for more You Tube Links to tours of the cabins or go to "Google Sites Evergreen Camp". Property damage policy is required to rent our camp.

About the host

Hosted by Wendy Insinger

Host profile image
We (Bill & Wendy) began renting a camp on Silver Lake in summer of 1993. It was love at first sight for our whole family. We were thrilled by the 'Forever Wild' northwoods feeling of the place, yet felt very comfortable with our young children hiking the well-groomed trails and learning to swim and boat in the quiet waters of Silver Lake. We loved adventuring into the surrounding wild forests, paddling the tranquil waters, swimming at all hours, and feeling very free, yet very cozy, at the same time. Eventually, we were fortunate to be able to buy our historic camp from the Dreby Family, a family whose on-going stewardship of the environment has preserved the natural beauty, the environmental integrity, and the peaceful ambiance of Silver Lake.

Why they chose this property

Wendy grew up summering on Conneaut Lake, the largest freshwater lake in Pennsylvania. She and the other members of her clan claim that they have lakewater running through their veins. She was spellbound by the spiritual aspects of the lake, its spring-fed freshness, and abundant wildlife. Bill is not a lake person, but felt comfortable canoeing on its inviting, deserted waters. It also matched his New York City Boy's image of what an Adirondack Lake should be like - visions of Indian Princesses canoeing around from the other side of a pine-crested island come to mind. Both were thrilled to be able to teach their children, now adults, how to swim, boat, and appreciate nature in an environ that was wild and, yet, somewhat protected. The tradition continues each summer, as extended family, from great-grandmother (Bill's mom) to great grandchildren, gather to savor the joys of outdoor life and family fun.

What makes this property unique

Great for large family groups. Big fire pit by the lake, for cooking or just plain campfires. Gas grills make outdoor cooking easy, as well.
Easy ingress (only 2 steps) into the cabin and ground floor bedrooms ideal for infirm/elderly people. Ramp style steps with railing lead down to lake.
Very accessible shoreline and trails. Many close, easy, short (one mile) hikes with great destinations that hikers of all abilities can enjoy. Many Intermediate mountain hikes (Bear Mt., Mt. Arab, Tooley Pond Mt.) and Challenging hikes (The Cranberry Lake 50), for the more outdoorsy members of your party.
Wonderful screened porch for reading, sitting, eating, and watching the lake.
Wade into lake - shallow and sandy near shore.
Separate, small cabin for those who appreciate privacy.
4 bathrooms (one in basement).
Fenced yard for pets and small children.
Floating dock, plus two stationary docks, lots of different outdoor places for people to hang out.
Sit-down meal seating available for 16 people.
2 fridges and 2 stoves. 3rd ('beer fridge', aka, '# fridge') in basement.
