From the moment we walked in the place felt warm and welcoming. The little attention to detail was commendable. The decorations were obviously changed for the seasons and not static year round. The house was extremely clean and everything was easy to use. The dog area outside was perfect for our pup. And, the view was beautiful. The lake was frozen with a fresh coating of powdery snow on top. Check-in/out was simple and communication with Debbie was quick and responsive. Also, being there in the winter, Mark came by twice to be sure the driveways were plowed and snow was removed from the stoop. You can tell that they are indeed “dog people” as there were little adornments alluding to as much (plus they had food and water bowls in the cupboard - luckily, because we forgot ours).We liked our stay so much that we booked again for a summer trip - see what the warm weather is like. The cold weather was great, and beautiful. But, something tells us that the sun on the water will be amazing! Definitely worth the stay!

Perfect Adirondacks getaway

Our family of 4 pup had a fantastic stay at Deb and Mark’s house - being directly on the lake is perfect for little kids, the location is very convenient to the town (walking distance to store, beach, coffee shop), the house has everything we needed for a longer stay, and our dog had plenty of room to run and swim. We particularly appreciated the screened in porch and the kayaks! Deb and Mark were wonderful hosts and very responsive to every question and need. We are already planning our return!

We had a lovely stay at this property. Excellent location, super friendly hosts, well appointed house. Great way to spend some quality time with the family. My 11 & 13 yr old children loved the kayaks! Lots of great options for entertainment - games/puzzles/corn hole. We'll definitely look to stay here again in the future.

Wonderful place, caring owners

This was my second stay here and I still love it. The fall colors were at their peak and that was so beautiful! And a bald eagle flew in and posed in a pine tree one evening. Amazing! There is a very good supply of things that are lacking at other places - toilet paper, tissues, hand soap, ice and even night lights. The furniture is comfortable and the overall lighting is good. I especially liked the fenced area for my dog. I really appreciated that the dock was still in place in October. Debby even texted me to see if I arrived safely and to check if everything was OK. I would definitely like to return.

Wonderfully Relaxing & Beautiful Location

Our second time to this property was just as perfect as the first. We had everything we could need and the home was very clean. The views from the property are just amazing! Our dogs absolutely love this property and the fenced in yard for them is super convenient. There is so much to do in the area, but having the kayaks there for the lake gave us such a peaceful paddle in the early morning hours. We would definitely recommend this property to anyone looking to stay in the area. Mark and Debby are great hosts. Very good communication, very helpful, And willing to go the extra mile if needed. Thank you for sharing your home with us again this year.

Tranquility at the Lake

My husband and I spent a very peaceful and relaxing week at Northern Exposure. The hosts were responsive and helpful. The house was fully stocked with everything you could need. It was very clean and comfortable. We were thankful for the central AC since it was a hot week. The lake was perfect for fishing and kayaking. The area has many hiking trails, two country stores on each end of Wells. Took a day trip to Speculator and enjoyed beautiful lake views at Lake Pleasant. We’re looking forward to coming back.

Christmas at the lake

I wanted to do something different with my husband and daughter for Christmas. All three of us agreed the setting and home were ideal ! I packed a small tree and some ornaments and when we walked in there stood a tree and the entire cabin was done for winter/Christmas. So cozy, so picturesque ! It was a wonderful fun trip. I never met Deb but felt like I knew her, a good vibe. I was sending pictures as if she never saw her home😀
