We had a wonderful stay. Diane's house is beautiful and the location was great. We have stayed in many rentals, this was the most well equiped kitchen we have had. The fire pit was was perfect and if it rained the bar off the kitchen was a nice alternative. We had a great stay, I would not hesitate to do it again. Thanks, Diane
We had another great stay with Diane and already booked for next year. The house is well stocked, neighbors are friendly and the town is very charming.
Awesome house, my entire family had a great time :) The house is even better than pictured and watching the sunsets on the lake was magical. Just a thing to note, there is not a platform in the lake to jump off of and there was no body wash
Place is well sized for multiple families to gather for vacation/outings. It has nice wraparound deck with lookout to lake and mountain region. Also has screened room incase of some chillier nights. Close to other lakes/river streams/hiking fall views.
Amazing time on Lake Algonquin! Our stay was fantastic in this beautiful spacious house. We loved the location on the lake, the close proximity to the tennis/pickleball courts, stores, hiking trails etc. Diane was great to work with, I would definitely recommend this house to anyone!
The house is immaculate. Had everything we needed for cooking. Beautiful views of the lake. Only wish was that there could have been easier access for kayaks and a ladder on dock for swimming.
11 of us stayed here again this summer- 4 generations actually! The location was convenient for us, the home had plenty of space and the access to the lake was perfect! Before we even left all of us were talking about returning next summer. Nothing but good things to say about this home and the owner.
We had the best week in this lovely home. Very clean, easy access, well stocked kitchen and friendly neighbors. Plenty of space to spread out for sleeping and hanging out. The dock was nice for our boat and for fishing. We loved our time here and have already booked for next year! Thanks again for an amazing week!
Had a fishing trip with a group of 10 friends and family. The cabin was great, very clean and big enough for everyone. Fishing was good on the lake and the surrounding river. Had a small miscue with the owner but we worked it out fairly. Would definitely recommend it to anyone!
The house is lovely and has room for a large group. We are four adults and appreciated having room to spread out. The kitchen has all of the amenities we needed and then some. We enjoyed family meals at the beautifully crafted dining table, canoeing on Lake Algonquin, a small bonfire near the lake, and the views from the decks.
We stayed with 3 generations, 7 people total (including kids age 5 and 7). The location was perfect! Walkable to playscape and farmers market on Saturday morning, general store with pizza takeout literally 2 doors down. At the house we were able to swim, boat and have fires each night. We hit record high temps during our stay so we were so thankful to be staying right on the water. Plenty of room to spread out in the house. Super cool bar area and sun room. We would definitely stay again!
The Home is well done and ready for a relaxing time. Diane was great to answer questions timely. We had 2nd Generations of family here for a Year Number 34 Fishing Trip. Many fun times. The Lakes water level was low due to the hot Summer and Little Rain, but we made the best of it. Would recommend this Lake Front home and would come back again.Thank You Diane for loaning us your Vacation Home.Sincerely the Gilday Family
We had a lovely stay at this sweet spot in the ADK. The property is even better than the pics. It was clean, cozy, well stocked with all we needed for cooking, and we really appreciated it having all we needed to build a campfire too. Communication was very clear with notes around for reminders. It was just what this group of friends was hoping for! Thank you!
Terrific space with views and well-equipped kitchen.
For six cyclists, this house was excellent -with ample common space (kitchen, dining, sun porch, living room, screened porch, and outdoor patios) and good sleeping rooms. The kitchen was very well-equipped. And the loon lounging on the swimmers' float was soothing just to see. And the lake water was warm in late September.
The place is all pretty new, great set up, plenty of sleeping space. Beautiful view, nice enclosed porch with a bar and a bed that pulls down off of wall. 2 full baths is nice when you have 11 people. We had a little misunderstanding with the listing and I called them, they responded right away and even though it was our fault, they helped us out. Which was much appreciated. Great place with a great set up. I would highly recommend them.
House on the lake with mountain views did not disappoint.
Beautifully decorated with ADK touches.
Bar with double refrigerators was a great hangout spot.
Eagle, loons, fish present each day.
Great kayak & canoe trip up the Sacandaga River.
House offered anything you needed, just bring provisions.
Upstairs bedrooms get a bit toasty, bring fans.
The plastic campfire chairs not strong, so be careful.
Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2023
