Built in the early 20th century and set back from the road, this charming and secluded cabin, just one mile from World of Life Island, is a great option for couples or a family looking to get away from it all for a little while.
Located one short mile from the lake and the quaint village of Schroon Lake, this historic home boasts walls of stone and golden knotty pine along with plenty of modern amenities to ensure everyone is comfortable. Prepare meals in the well-equipped, full kitchen and then dine at the table for six or bring out the board games on rainy or snowy days. The living area features a futon, comfortable chairs, and a TV for streaming your favorite channels.
And outdoors, enjoy the expansive yard where the kids can run and play while you toss something special on the gas grill, and then gather around the firepit to roast marshmallows, tell stories, and watch the stars come out.
THINGS TO KNOW Streaming TV services require guest accounts to access. Vacasa is a registered New York State sales tax vendor.

Beautiful cabin
Quiet, comfortable home. My only complaint about check-in was that Vacasa changed the entry code so we had some difficulty getting in. My complaint about the home is that there was mouse droppings all over the kitchen — on dining table, on kitchen counters, even in the coffee pot. Ugh.

Excellent house, but this is a rental agency property
This property is very nice and we had a good stay. However, contrary to VRBO's acronym, "...Rental By Owner", this house is not being rented out by the owner. When you rent this house, you rent it from a company called "Vacasa". When I initially rented it, I sent a message via VRBO (isn't that how VRBO wants it done?) and got no reply. Later, I got messages from Vacasa that seemed to not be applicable to the timing of my rental, e.g., sending me a check-in message on my check-out date.
After I checked out, they sent me a message to my email address (not via VRBO) saying I owed more money. I got no notification of this from VRBO. When I questioned it, they said "oh, you don't really owe any money". Go figure out what's going on there.
Their messages come from people with names like "John W" or "Mary B", who don't seem to be in this country, suggesting I'm dealing with outsourced customer service, not a property owner.
In any case, the house is nice. I just don't want to deal with a 3rd party like this, so I don't plan to rent it again.
