Village Hideaway, 1 bdrm efficiency, private entrance. On the Rail Trail.

Retreat to this thoughtfully appointed Village Hideaway - a cozy private room with an ensuite bathroom for one or two guests, and a private entrance. Enjoy the convenience to easily stroll downtown Saranac Lake for dining and shopping via the Adirondack Rail Trail right behind the building. The rail trail is currently completed for 25 miles and is truly an amazing area amenity.

Whether you are visiting friends or family, or coming to adventure outside in the woods or on the water, or for a work trip we have you covered: A sweet space is equipped for preparing simple meals or snacks with a compact refrigerator with freezer, microwave, toaster, drip coffee maker and other kitchen essentials. There is a small deck with a table, chairs, and cushions to sit outside during the warmer months. A secretary's desk awaits those needing a dedicated work space. The Hideaway's ensuite bathroom has a 32" shower stall. Bath essentials are provided including towels and washcloths, hand soap, shower gel, shampoo, and hair dryer. This rental is in the rear of the owner's home with parking a few steps from the private entrance. The Village Nook, a full garden level, is also available through VRBO/Expedia Partners.

Interaction with guests
Mary and Kevin are available whenever needed via text or phone and are usually quick to reply. We are glad to meet our guests but its not required since we provide self-check-in. You'll find a guidebook in the room with the hosts recommendations for dining and outings as well as brochures and maps for area attractions, trails and waterways.

The neighborhood
The Village Hideaway is conveniently located a short walk to downtown Saranac Lake and its shops, cafes, restaurants, and artist galleries. The building behind the home is Bluseed Studios, featuring art exhibits, workshops, plays and live music. Across the street kitty corner is a small park with a tennis/pickleball court and basketball court. Guests have found the convenience of stores located across the street: Dollar General, Aubuchon's Hardware, Kinney Drugs, a Wine and Spirits shop, and a bicycle and snow mobile rental shop. Less than a mile away is the towns’ municipal beach, park and picnic area at Lake Colby - a lovely spot to watch the sunset, and a boat launch on Lower Saranac Lake, which gives access to the spectacular Saranac chain of lakes. Behind the building is the new Adirondack Rail Trail where you can walk, bike, cross country ski or snow mobile for miles! 25 miles of 34 is currently complete as of Fall ' 24. The remaining nine miles is slated to be complete Fall ' 25.

Saranac Lake's history continues as a health and wellness getaway location. Come see why Saranac Lake is one of the northeast's pioneering health resorts and why a get away here in the great north woods is good for the soul.

Other things to note
Mary has a private wellness studio on the main level of the house. Make an appointment for a rejuvenating experience. Enjoy a private yoga or qigong lesson, yoga therapy, Reiki, BioMat, or sound meditation/healing. Check the Inner Quest Yoga & Wellness Center website for details.

Let the Hideaway be your home away.
Breath, relax, feel and be.
We enjoy hosting guests from all over the world!
Kind regards, Mary & Kevin
