This waterfront home on 120 feet of private Great Sacandaga Lake beach frontage is the perfect place for your vacation. Across the street of this stunning property, you will find your own private beach area with a fire pit, boat dock, kayaks, paddle boards and outdoor lawn furniture.

During the winter months enjoy skiing, ice fishing and snowmobiling throughout thousands of miles of endless trails.

This is a spacious 4-bedroom, 2-full bathroom home we call the SOUTH SHORE HIDEAWAY (Sleeps 8/9 guest) and is the house located on the left if you are looking at the property from the street. As you approach the front door, there is an open patio where you can enjoy the outdoors with your private BBQ Grill. Next you walk through the front door into a spacious enclosed porch. Turning left upon your entrance to the enclosed porch will lead you to the back of the house where you will find a master suit with a king size bed and private full bathroom. In the back of the house, you will also find another bedroom that has a full-size bed. Upon your entry to the enclosed porch walk right and you will be taken into the main living of the house where you will find a large dining room and kitchen along with a living room that looks out at the lake. Behind the kitchen you will have a one bedroom with a set of bunkbeds and another room with a queen size bed. There is also another full-size bathroom located directly between the 2 bedrooms. Walk through the living room to another enclosed porch and open patio on the font of the hours that overlooks the lake where you can watch the most beautiful sunsets upon the Adirondack Mountains.

To access the living areas, you will need to be able to climb 1 flight of stairs. No there is no access to the garage and parking at the property is limited to the driveway in front of the garage doors. Do not block wrap around driveway. Caution!!! the driveway is short and steep! While we have snow removal services with sand and salt in the winter months it can be hard to navigate the driveway without 4 wheel/all-wheel drive vehicles. Please plan accordingly when traveling during the winter months and in the event your group will require more parking spaces in the driveway.

There is another rental house located on this property that may be rented out while you are staying here. We have separate patios at the house that are very secluded. Also, near the lake we have separate fire places, kayaks, and paddles boards for each individual house hold staying on the property to enjoy. The lake area is split in half for guest staying in property to enjoy their own 60’ of lake frontage. We strive to keep the areas segregated so all guests have their own space and ensure interaction amongst guest is limited so everyone has privacy.

Not worth the money

I've thought about not leaving a negative review but we were so disappointed in the stay along with the money we paid. The house was not clean when we got there, the garbage outside was over full, back room has no ac, the house smells of mold, the cookware is unusable because it's ancient. The beach is shared so there's a chance you won't get much space on the beach. The other side has access to the garage so when it's opened it echoes so loud through the house. There was writing on one bathroom wall, the other bathroom has a huge crack going right down it and mold on the wall. I could go on with everything we found wrong. The pictures don't show the true house. Was beyond disappointed in the house. Ended up leaving a day early.

Not private

The picture shows whole property (and mentions 4 bedrooms so I assumed this was the entire property to rent) but this is actually two rentals in the one house with a shared deck, etc. Others staying in the other part of the home took over our section of the beach. We only stayed one night and couldn’t get a refund. Owner was nice, place was clean.. but very disappointing to find out the place is not private unless you rent both areas.

Great House Beautiful Lake Location

Stayed here for a short vacation in early October. Host was amazingly responsive, house was large, clean, and well supplied, and Great Sacandaga Lake are is particularly beautiful at this time of year. Would be lots of fun in the summer with lake access as well.. Thanks Kyle!

Nice time, could have been better

The location of the property was excellent. We loved the private beach front lot. Questions were answered immediately by Kyle and he was accommodating. Getting the check-in instructions the day of the trip was a bit unusual. In the past we always received instructions two weeks prior. The listing did mention on-site laundry but that was not available. Kyle thanked me for pointing that out and said he would correct it. Lastly, we had about 35 spoons available and 3 forks. The house does need more forks.

Great lake front vacation house!

The South Shore Lake House Hideaway was exactly what we were looking for for our summer family reunion / vacation! The grounds and lake front property are beautiful! The new dock was great and had plenty of space for our pontoon boat and provided a nice swimming area. The house is good with 4 roomy bedrooms and a nice kitchen & dinning area. It was just big enough for our family of 7 adults (* and a dog!) We especially enjoyed sitting on the deck, that overlooks the lake, every day! This house is great and we are considering renting it again next summer!
