Perfect location! Family friendly
My family enjoyed our stay! Great location and close to downtown. The kids loved enchanted safari that we went back two times in 1 week! We went to the public beach and also rented a boat for the day! We did hike Rocky Mountain which was a short drive but great for my kids to hike with a beautiful view. The house provided everything needed to enjoy your stay! The kids and dog loved running around in the back yard and roasting marshmallows in the fire pit. Everything was very clean! Great hosts! Would love to go back. Thank you!

Snow snow snow
We finally got all the snow in OF and this house was perfect for our group! Communication was great prior to arrival, and coordination with the property manager was superb. We rode every day and the property is located so that you can go N S E or W to hit new trails easily. The house itself was super clean, super cute, and made for an awesome home base when we got done for the day, cooked a big meal, and thawed our sleds! Thank you so much for letting us use your house!

Excellent family trip
Perfect location and property for family vacation.Great room arrangement for people with young kids so variable sleeping times are easy. Beautifully maintained property with things to do on site but also hiking trails and canoeing options ridiculously close by. All the comforts of home from kitchen to fire pit to comfy beds. Very well set up for bringing a dog too. Michael and caretaker Meg were responsive and helpful. Can’t imagine anything I would change. We will be back!

Late Summer Birthday/Family Hangs
Had a great time with lots of space for the dogs and high energy kids. Property is secluded enough to feel a little lost amongst the wildlife (deer and squirrel) but close enough to Old Forge for the bear (we saw two in town...) necessities and some very accommodating restaurants (Old Mill, Keyes Pancake House, Walt's Diner and Slickers). We spent a good amount of our time on property and had plenty of available room for everyone to really do their own things. Great stay,. property, and host!

Central Place to Stay
It was a bright and clean central place to stay. The house was decorated in the ADK flair right down to the towels. We couldn't fit in all the activities we wanted but we still had an enjoyable time. Deer even visited.

Our Barefoot Camp Vacation
Such a beautiful home on a wonderful 5-acre wooded lot. We are already talking about another stay! The amenities are top notch and communication with the owners 5 Star! It must be fabulous in the Fall. I, personally, did not feel like I needed to go anywhere else but Barefoot Camp. I highly recommend this property for couples and families!

Old forge no snow but fun
This house was one of the nicest houses I have used via this app. The location , the cleanliness, the amount of supplies, made for a perfect trip as there was no snow to ride snowmobile. However, I have two grandkids that had a great time. I would highly recommend this property, the owners pay attention to detail.

Loved it
We had a wonderful, restful (albeit rather chilly and rainy) week in the Adirondacks at Bearfoot Camp. “Camp” is a bit of a misnomer; this is a lovely all season extremely comfortable large home.
The property is really pretty secluded and very quiet. The beds are great, water pressure great, and no lack of hot water. The decor was very ADK!
We had daily visits from very friendly deer (including 3 large bucks with full velvet covered antlers—one a 10 pointer). The kids had a blast at Water Safari, despite the weather.
We found Mike to be most responsive. Meg (the local caretaker) was also very helpful and easy to reach.
Definitely a 5/5 from us! We would love to stay again in the future.

Great house just outside of town
Had a great stay at Mike and Michele’s place, close to town which was super convenient and also could bring the dog which was a huge plus for us. Mike is quick to communicate and respond to questions. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a stay in the Old Forge/Thendara area and would love to come back and stay again if possible. Thank you so much.

Beautiful home
My friends and I stayed at this property this past weekend. We come to Old Forge often, but this was our first time at this home. It’s a beautiful house set a little into the woods offering privacy and quiet. The house itself is gorgeous and was perfect for the 5 of us the each be able to gather together and also have our own space. The property was clean and there were so many touches that made it feel like home. We enjoyed fires each night inside and also discovered an adorable little shed outside that had another gathering space. This home is close to town but far enough away to offer a break from the business of Old Forge. We hope to stay again. Thank you!
