We had an amazing stay. Very beautiful, welcoming home. The homeowners do keep many belongings in the home which was a new experience for us. Working around other people’s things. A little different. Also, the security cameras were mounted on the inside of the home, facing out. However having this in the master bedroom especially felt a bit ‘awkward.’

Quick Summer Getaway!

We very much enjoyed our time at this property. Mark was very communicative through the whole process. He also checked in to make sure our arrival went ok. The house was clean and the beds were comfortable. Lots of space to stretch out and 3 bathrooms!!! Amazing. It was a great location close to Old Forge and a short drive to Inlet.

Great Place/Owner for Snowmobiling

We were six adults on a weeklong sled trip. The house is perfectly located on the trail with close lake access. The house had plenty of room for us and it was clean. Mark was incredibly helpful with recommendations for riding, restaurants and everything else related to our trip considering we hadn't been to Old Forge, Tug Hill and the Adirondacks in general. Highly recommend.

Nice Location for Family Activities

Pros: The cabin has two bedrooms on the first floor, and two communicating ones in the walk-out basement. Really nice space indoor and outdoor with a big deck. It is was clean and Mark was responsive to our inquiries. It is located close to many easy family friendly hikes and Old Forge. It is a hunter cabin and though personally we did not enjoy the trofees mounted on the wall we could see that would be enjoyable for someone that has appreciation for hunting. Caveats: The fridge and freezer were a bit full and require a bit of cleaning. Be aware that on top of the cleaning fee there is a $200 fee for linens and towels. A bit much for polyester sheets and one towel per person. It would have been nice to make this a bit more evident in the listening (my bad that I missed that in the amenities was not listed). Mark was accommodating and reduce the fee since we only used two sets of the bed sheets. Also, it seems that you might have to take most of your trash out. It sounded like we should and we ended up just doing it anyway, but double check with Mark for clarifications. Thank you Mark for sharing your home with us!

This was our first time in the Adirondacks and it was wonderful! The home was very clean and extremely well kept up. The owner was nice enough to set up a fire pit for us with chairs for nighttime. 10/10 would recommend this home to anyone!

House was clean, beds were comfortable. I wish the listing shared what floor the beds/bunks were on. We had to change around our sleeping arrangements because our kids were too young to be downstairs by themselves. Very close to town and we enjoyed water safari, fire, mountain scenic chair lift and 1st lake! Thanks Marc for your quick responses when we had questions!

The great white North

Good location and great home getaway. As a landlord myself I would be a nervous wreck opening up a place as nice as this to a changing clientele! That being said the home is fabulous, modern heating and plumbing, no glitches like some of these rentals (restrictions on toilet flushes etc.) memory foam bedding, everything clean. We were a group of 4 guys to ride sled and it was great to come back to the cabin at the end of the day, fire up the wood stove and relax. Would rent again without hesitation.

Nice Stay in Old Forge

Very clean and comfortable - tons of space. Nice partially covered deck (with patio furniture) and grill space, also has a fire pit and there was plenty of fire wood available. Nice TV and reasonably fast WIFI. Not a ton of cookware available (particularly a large pot for boiling pasta, etc), so if that is a concern plan on bringing your own.

Perfect Cabin in a perfect location

This cabin is absolutely perfect in many ways! We were up for 3 nights to snowmobile, it’s about 100 yards from the trail, it was very clean and cozy and well stocked! After a long day out on the sleds, it was the perfect cabin to come back to cook and have some drinks! We will be coming back!
