Great Property

Very secluded, kids had a blast sledding in the backyard and walking on the frozen lake. Convenient 20 minute ride away from Gore Mountain.

We loved staying at the cabin. It had ample living spaces, beds for everyone, large kitchen and then some! Loved sitting on the covered porch and drinking our morning coffee. Fire pit was huge with fresh firewood provided. Short walk to the lake front which had lots of equipment (kayaks/paddle boards/etc) ready to go! Felt very private which was a plus. The pool table was a big hit as well. We will definitely be booking again in the future! Host was very very responsive and helped us recover lost AirPods after our stay. I would recommended the cabin to anyone looking for a fun lake holiday!

Beautiful place to stay

House was lovely, cozy and well-decorated with an adirondack feel. Rooms were clean and spacious. Recreation room was great for kids. Waterfront was fun for fishing and Kayaking. Firepit was huge and kids loved making smores there. Kitchen was spacious with ample refrigerator size. Great vacation spot for a large group! Owner was very responsive and checkout/in was easy. Would definitely stay again!

Friends Lake Family trip

We had a great week at the cabin at Friends Lake. Everything was as expected from what Lisa had listed. We had a storm knock out power and a tree that that came down during the storm, and Lisa was very quick to respond and help out! Great home, great time!

Coming home to Friends Lake

Very comfortable. Plenty of amenities. A paddle boat would be a great addition. Unable to use fireplace, flue backed up, would not open.

Hi Catherine. I’m glad you enjoyed your stay. We have a canoe, 2 kayaks and 2 paddle boards for guest use. I’m sorry you had trouble with the flue. The chimney service said the chain had just gotten stuck but it has worked fine in the weeks since your stay. Im sure you’ll enjoy a good fire during your stay next summer. See you then!

We didn’t want to leave- seriously

From before renting- communication was amazing and that carried through our stay. Our family of age rages of 3-69 fully enjoyed our stay. First floor is fully( main floor with two bedrooms with a walk in shower) handicapped accessible- toilets are a bit low. So very clean and kitchen is indeed fully equipped! Easy house “rules” although not really rules- just proper way of living. We ALL can’t wait for our next stay. My only recommendation- is to post more pictures to get a true sense of what this place has to offer

June 2023 Americade House

Had a Great time at the House ! The lake was amazing , water was perfect. The House comfortably slept 16 men with room to spare ! Just a side of caution for any future motorcycle riders . The drive way from the main road is gravel and sand and slopes down towards the lake so I only recommend experienced riders book this house if riding motorcycles . Other then that , the house is beautiful and well kept . It had absolutely everything anyone would need to relax , bbq, cook , bathe, and sleep !

Property is exactly as listed.

My family has been visiting Lake George twice a year for over 7 years. We always stayed at the same resort on Lake George. Our family are all growing up so fast and we have outgrown the large condo we always stayed at and decided to rent a house. This beautiful lake house was beyond perfect. The home is huge and truly sleeps 20 people in actual beds! The property was very clean and truly beautifully decorated to provide a homey feel rather than the minimalistic/touristy feel of many other home rentals we have stayed in provide. Fully stocked kitchen with more than enough dish ware and pans and important items we always forget to bring. We will be returning again. When talking about next year, my adult grandchildren clearly stated they wanted to come back to this property. Thank you for the use of your stunning home.

A couple of comments: 1. Property is on expensive side and you expect that the owner will not chase you down with cleaning expenses or will miss that you are traveling with a pet 2. There are no clear signs at the dirt road to property and it is hard to find especially if you arrive later after darkness 3. The trash bin is at the top of the dirt road and only driving from the house. If you use recycling at home this is not the case in the area. All should go in trash, but there is no clear guidance on that. 4. The birch tree at the dock is dead and in poor condition a huge chunk of wood fell down on the sitting area during our stay. I recommend to take it down for safety reasons (fire and debris hazards)

Response from VrboOwner on 25 Aug 2025
Over the past 4 years, we have taken great pride in renting our home over 70 times with a 4.97 rating. In this case, the guests left the house in such a condition that our cleaning service had to charge an extra fee. Also, the guest failed to include their pets on the official reservation. The private 1/4 mile driveway leads directly to the house and adds to the privacy and seclusion of the property, which is part of its appeal. GPS accurately directs drivers to the house and there are detailed driving instructions on the information sheet sent to all guests. Tree removal is managed in concert with the Adirondack Park Agency. Thank you.

Post-Wedding Weekend Win

Lisa's property allowed my wife and I to spend a lovely weekend away from everything with a group of our friends. The cabin's kitchen, rec room, fire pits, and dock were all fantastic places to spend quality time and enjoy each other's company.

Beautiful & Relaxing

Our family enjoyed a wonderful week of kayaking, canoeing, swimming and fishing at the lake. The house fit our needs perfectly. The deck was a favorite hangout every morning drinking coffee and reading or at the end of a relaxing day enjoying our evening meals together. The large yard and fire pit were a big plus. When our week was over, no one wanted to leave. Thank you for sharing your wonderful home.
