#7 The Adirondack cottage at Birchwood Cottages at Loon Lake, Chestertown NY is the original cabin on this property still holds all the charm of lake life. Renovated in Spring of 2019. The Adirondack Cottage is a 2 bedroom cottage (2 queen beds), plus a Futon style couch, and will accommodate 4-6+ people. There is a full large bath with shower, full living room, full kitchen, picnic table, fire pit, charcoal grill, lots of seating, screened and open porches with lake view! Perfection in the Adirondack!
We offer plenty of private parking for vehicles, boats and their trailers, cable television, wifi, campfire pit, and charcoal grill. Swim area with floating dock, 25'long deep water boat dock, and sandy beach are available for no additional charge between Memorial Day and Labor Day.
Enjoy fishing, swimming, boating and picnicking on beautiful Loon Lake or the many other Adirondack Lakes nearby. Visit Lake George's famous attractions just a short 25 minute drive away. Spend time at neighboring fun spots including Frontier Town, Schroon Lake, Natural Stone Bridge and Caves, Scenic Gore Mountain -- gondola rides, and Ausable Chasm! Horseback riding and golfing are also available nearby!
All well behaved pets are welcome at Birchwood! Small pet fee is extra. We do ask that they remain leashed at all times while on our property. Please pick up after your pets indoors and outdoors. We prefer that they remain downstairs if staying in the Lodge and off the beds/furniture in all units (as to help keep allergens to a minimum). Due to NYS Department of Health regulations, dogs are not allowed at the beach, in the designated swim area. We do however, have plenty of lakefront shoreline for dogs to enjoy, docks to jump from and some shallow exit areas as well. If you are using Birchwood as a base for a day trip, we ask that you take your pet with you. If that's not possible, we'd be more than happy to recommend a local "pet day care". Leaving your pet behind without supervision is not permitted. We don't want them to be frightened or rowdy while you're away -- after all they should enjoy vacation as well. Additional cottages available on property for the extended family that wants their own space at additional cost. Rec Room is open to all Birchwood guests.
You must provide email address for forwarding of lock box access code, beach waiver, etc. Off VRBO communication is automated and limited. Every reservation requires acknowledgement of receiving and reviewing the Property Rules and Terms of Service.
If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking.

Good value
We really enjoyed our stay at Birchwood Cottages. The cabin was very quaint, clean and well kept. The pool table and ping-pong table in the rec room were a fun plus and the location was great and very easy to get to. Communication with the owners was excellent as well. We called to ask a question and received a call back immediately with the information that we needed. All in all, this was a very good value for the money.

great stay
We had a great stay. Only thing different than what we thought was location. The lake is right there but you have to cross the road in front of the property to get to the lake.
The cabin did have a view of the lake from the top of the hill. Everything else was really wonderful. Highly recommend.

Great Location!
We were very happy with our stay at Birchwood Cottages! The place was clean and the kitchen and bathroom were updated, which was a plus.
Loon Lake was a nice small lake, but we loved how convenient the location was. We were able to drive easily over to Lake George, which was only about a half hour away, and we went up to Lake Placid, which was an hour away.
It was a nice long weekend to get away, we would stay here again!
