About this property

Bluebear Cottage

Serenity, tranquility, and a deep sense of calm is what you experience on this private 80-acre woodland retreat for those who want to reconnect with nature and savor the quiet beauty of the Adirondacks. This is the perfect location if you want to be near all of the local vacation amenities but want your own space.

Whether you’re visiting in the crisp winter months or the lush green of summer, Bluebear Cottage offers an authentic, peaceful experience surrounded by forest, trails, and mountain views.

Enjoy beautiful winter scenery, and sledding/snow tubing and hiking, with great views at the top of the private mountain. Clear views of the Milky Way and opportunity for astrophotography at night.

Summer mornings on the porch, you can hear individual bees pollinating clover flowers, waking up one at a time until they're all busy at work. In the summer, private hiking and trails, a cultivated blueberry patch, and the flora and fauna of the backyard meadow exude peace and nature. Swimming and kayaking and other water sports are a short drive away at the Great Sacandaga Lake and Stewart’s Pond. Reach dining, shopping and other attractions in Saratoga Springs or Lake George in 30 minutes. Experience the small town life in Lake Luzerne 10 minutes away, with plenty of outdoor activities.

The space
Bluebear Cottage is a century‑old Adirondack home with thoughtful updates and modern comforts. It’s a space that reflects its history and natural surroundings. Guests who appreciate rustic charm, privacy, and the chance to immerse themselves in the outdoors will feel right at home. Trails are natural logging paths and dirt roads, offering an authentic backwoods adventure.

The covered front porch with several hand crafted wooden Adirondack chairs, are perfect for morning coffee.

The back deck has a charcoal grill, tables, and chairs for grilling and dinner.

Up a short path to the fire pit, you can roast marshmallows and build s'mores while the low light pollution affords amazing stargazing on clear nights, including observing the Milky Way.

The family room is a favorite in the winter time with the fire on. The wood stove gets that room quite toasty, and sometimes you don't want to leave that space!

The office desk with USB dongle includes a screen, keyboard, mouse, and AC adapter, so you can just plug your PC in and work remotely / write your novel / add incredible journal entries with fast WiFi.
