The house had a nice mix of lots of character combined with new finishes… very clean with plenty of room. The internet and tvs were great. We used the grill and picnic area several times. It was also a good location relative to where my dad lives and Lake Flower. Really enjoyed our at Camp Shepard.
Brought our bass boat, Flower Lake boat ramp w/i 2 blocks (nice). Visited the town of Lake Placid, next day went on lake. Went on Upper Saranac, all lakes w/i 45 minutes. Vrbo house was very nice, had everything we needed, owners we great and checked to make sure we had all we needed.
Real nice place.
