Lakefront home steps away from a private, gentle sloping sandy beach & fire pit.


Your family will love spending their vacation on the water when you book Peaceful Waters lakefront home - steps away from a private sandy beach that gently slopes into Loon Lake! Wake up to the sounds of soothing waves lapping against the shoreline and the call of the loon. A private dock, grill, fire pit and cornhole set are provided for your outdoor enjoyment. Bring a thermos while you paddle along the shoreline in either the two kayaks or canoe also included with the rental. Having been completely renovated in 2020, the open-concept living space features tasteful Stickley craftsman furnishings and Millspaugh Furniture/mattresses in the bedrooms. Beautiful floors and lots of natural light from large windows overlook Loon Lake. Enjoy your morning coffee on the large deck complete with an outdoor teak dining set and steamer chairs. The full kitchen boasts attractive countertops, stainless steel appliances, utensils and cookware you'll need to create something special for you and your guests. Your family movie night will be even better when you enjoy it with the HDTV and Sonos speakers. The high-speed 5G WiFi is more than ready to assist in streaming or Zoom calls for work or school. High thread count sheets and towels professionally laundered for your comfort.

Our second year staying at Peaceful Waters and everything was perfect. The house is just beautiful. Clean and comfortable and probably one of the most beautiful spots on the lake. I spent most of my time on the new spot down by the beach on a lounge chair. Beautiful views. The fishing was great too!
Perfect spot with lounge chairs.

Vacation Spot

Terrific location for relaxing and spending time with family. Watching the moon rise from either the waterfront porch or fire pit patio was breathtaking. Small beach was excellent for young child and great for the adults to simply lean back and float along in the pristine water. We appreciated the meal seating, inside and out, that easily accommodated our group of 7 adults. The location was less than a 1/2 hour drive to Lake George Village. Accommodations were comfortable and clean. We had a wonderful stay at this property.
