Peaceful Cottage on the Water ~ Sauna Cabin, Kayaks, SUP Board, Canoe & more!


Plan a summer vacation at our peaceful cottage and go back home refreshed and rejuvenated!

Cottage is located on Boyd Pond - a wonderful place to swim, fish kayak, stand-up paddle board, canoe or just grab a tube and float.

Sit on the deck over looking the water and watch the loons swim past or listen to them make there majestic calls. Sit around a camp fire at night and enjoy roasted marshmallows and quality family time.

Relax and rejuvenate in the separate retreat cabin equipped with cedar sauna!

With Canton and Potsdam approximately 20 minutes away, the opportunities are endless - 3 golf courses (1 mini-golf), 4 Universities, restaurants, galleries! Ottawa and Lake Placid are less than 2 hours away and make a wonderful day trip to visit that museum you have always wanted to see or hike in the Adirondacks (many other great hikes closer to Boyd Pond such as Stone Valley, Lampson Falls, Harper Falls, Huckleberry, Moon & Wolf Lake hike).

Cabin is equipped with all the necessities (inside and out) so that you can relax and enjoy your time away. Enjoy the waterfront or the separate bungalow with cedar sauna!

Great getaway
My husband and I had a great getaway. Experiencing peaceful evenings by the fire pit and small hikes during the late morning, hot tubbing and kayaking on the pond, and finished our evenings with dinner and Yatzee. Really enoyed Boyd Pond, and what great hosts Teresa and Chris were to share their peaceful property...We would definitely come back.

3rd Year in a Row at Camp Hemlock
We stayed at Camp Hemlock over Labor Day Weekend for the 3rd year in a row. Another amazing weekend full of fishing, kayaking, relaxing, and listening to the loons. It's a magical place where we have made many family memories. The new upgrades are really nice as well. Thanks again for an awesome weekend Teresa and Chris! The Johnson Family

Amazing getaway for all seasons
Camp Hemlock is even better than the pictures. It's a homelike and peaceful place to get away. We had some beautiful summer weather and loved spending time out on the pond. We also weren't bored on a couple of cooler, gray days: after getting out on the water, it felt luxurious to use the sauna and wood-fired hot tub. We also made easy day trips to the 1000 Islands region and to the cute nearby village of Canton (visit on a farmer's market day if you can). Teresa and family are generous and kind hosts. We were truly sorry to leave and would love to get back someday!

Beautiful lake property
Everything about the location and home is beautiful. Shared access to wood fired hot tub and short walk to shared sauna. Our family enjoyed both and access to the lake and ability to use the row boat (canoe and kayaks available as well). Home was well stocked with kitchen needs and extremely clean. Owners stay next door which provides easy communication for any needs with the house. Teresa was on-site for check in and any needed requests. Very quaint and quiet location. Pond is clean and seemed to be lots of fish.

A Great Escape
The place is beautiful- nice view, quiet and peaceful. We had a great time fishing, kayaking, canoeing and using the hot tub and sauna. The house was very comfortable. Our hosts, Teresa, Chris and Kate showed great hospitality. This is just what we needed to get away and enjoy our great escape.

Camp Hemlock was the perfect setting
Our vacation at Camp Hemlock met all of expectations and more. Teresa and Chris have a gem at Camp Hemlock, and we were lucky enough to enjoy everything it had to offer. Fishing, swimming, canoeing, kayaking, tubing, hiking, playing yard games and sitting in the hot tub and sauna are just a few things we did. Our days were full of constant fun, and we now have so many memories that will last a lifetime. If you’re looking for a place to relax and unwind, look no further than Camp Hemlock. Teresa and Chris, we were all sad when we had to leave and we can’t wait to come back soon!

Great Quiet Getaway
This was a charming house in a beautiful pond. They did a great job updating this cottage. It was clean and had everything we needed. Communication with the hosts was great. This is a beautiful unspoiled area and the perfect place to relax. I loved seeing and hearing the resident pair of loons and kayaking in the pond. The water was crystal clean and beautiful. Would definitely recommend this gem. Loved being right on the water.

A beautiful, relaxing get away
My family had a wonderful time at Camp Hemlock. Teresa was so friendly and welcoming, and the property looks just like the photos. Plan to use a mobile hotspot if you absolutely *need* an internet connection because the Wi-Fi is spotty but it’s also in a very secluded area so that can’t be helped. Thank you for a wonderful trip!

Annual trip with grandson
Camp Hemlock is exactly as advertised! Peaceful & pristine. The cabin has everything you could want & the location on the lake is perfect. We loved using the kayaks & my grandson caught 12 bass from the dock after sunset our last night there. Took a great (long) day trip to Ausable Chasm, Lake Placid & Whiteface Mtn. Teresa is an amazing host with excellent communication. Don't hesitate to book your trip at Camp Hemlock!
