We had so much fun at this big house right on Great Lake Sacandaga! The house is comfortable with lots of beds and seating areas for a large group. We were there with 12 adults and 2 children for a family gathering.
The 2-level deck is spacious and comfortable for lots of people. It's covered and overlooks the lake. So nice! On the deck, there is a large outdoor griddle and a separate grill. We did much of our cooking on these. The decks are both covered which provided shade and protection from the rain.
We rented a large pontoon and docked it at the dock in front of the house. It's a floating dock, which rocks when boats pass by. The dock is also down a few sets of stairs.The grandparents were not steady enough to go on the dock, so we drove them by car to a boat launch and picked them up with the boat there. It worked out and the stairs and deck were easy enough for most of us.
Sacandaga Lake is big and beautiful! There are a lot of motor boats around but still plenty of space, and room to jump out and swim.It was the fourth for July weekend so maybe busier than usual.
I would highly recommend this house. Great place!
