Beautiful home and location.

We stayed Aug 17-24. Even with the weather being not so great we had a great time. The house has everything you need. It was spotless and very comfortable. We managed to get in a few games of Cornhole and enjoyed the fire pit at night. My daughters went out in the canoe. It’s a beautiful spot on the lake with a nice little beach and dock. My nephew caught a nice size fish right off the dock. Amy was so nice and very accommodating. We had no issues on our trip at all.

Awesome House, Location, and Host.

We rented this property in July for a second year and we could not have been happier with the experience. Amy was extremely responsive to our questions and so was Tom. The house is exactly as described in the listing and more. We frequent Lake George and we were impressed with the quietness of Loon Lake. The water was warm and clean. We enjoyed using the canoe and having fires by the lake each night. Most nights, even Friday and Saturday, were very quite on the lake. The property is about 25 Minutes from both Bolton and Lake George Village. Also, the property has a propane powered Generac Generator, which should not be overlooked. Storms in the Adirondacks can be fierce in July. A bad thunderstorm hit and the area was without power for several days. No worries though because the Generac powers the entire house for days. We found little reason to visit Lake George Village as the town center and Loon Lake had all we need. The house has ample space for two families. There are two bedrooms on the second floor and two on the first. Both floors have full bathrooms and the first floor has a half bath. Everything was neat and clean with very modern finishes. We enjoyed playing games in the living room and watching Red Sox games in the late evening. The house has excellent Wi-Fi so you can stream anything you want in a tablet or computer in any room. We highly recommend this property if your looking for a true Lake House experience. Thank you Amy and Tom!

Vacation Spot

Terrific location for relaxing and spending time with family. Watching the moon rise from either the waterfront porch or fire pit patio was breathtaking. Small beach was excellent for young child and great for the adults to simply lean back and float along in the pristine water. We appreciated the meal seating, inside and out, that easily accommodated our group of 7 adults. The location was less than a 1/2 hour drive to Lake George Village. Accommodations were comfortable and clean. We had a wonderful stay at this property.

Awesome property close to Lake George, NY

We rented this property in July and we could not have been happier with the experience. Amy was extremely responsive to our questions and so was the property manager Skyler. The house is exactly as described in the listing and more. We frequent Lake George and we were impressed with the quietness of Loon Lake. The water was warm and clean. We enjoyed using the canoe and having fires by the lake each night. Most nights, even Friday and Saturday, were very quite on the lake. The property is about 25 Minutes from both Bolton and Lake George Village. We found little reason to visit Lake George Village as the town center and Loon Lake had all we need. The house has ample space for two families. There are two bedrooms on the second floor and two on the first. Both floors have full bathrooms and the first floor has a half bath. Everything was neat and clean with very modern finishes. We enjoyed playing games in the living room and watching Red Sox games in the late evening. The bedrooms don't have TVs, which was mentioned in another review. We didn't see a need for it as there was so much more to do than watch TV in bed. The house has excellent Wi-Fi so you can stream anything you want in a tablet or computer in any room. One of the best family vacations we have had. The only thing we struggled with was the trash, which had to be brought to the local transfer station. We had to go twice before departure, but I fairness we had two families and ate most all meals at the house. The passes are included in the rental, but bigger on-site recycling and trash would have allowed for less trips. We were afraid of leaving any trash out of the bins as I am sure local wildlife would find its way into the bags. All in all this was the only things we felt could use improvement on a otherwise perfect property. I forgot to mention, there is a Weber Grill oj-site as well, which makes for awesome lake grilling. We highly recommend this property if your looking for a true Lake House experience. Thank you Amy!

This was one of the most memorable experiences without having to jump on a plane, worry about all the airport chaos, and overweight baggage fees. The views, water, and home was beautiful. A private oasis for the whole family to enjoy. Less than 20 mins and you’re at downtown Lake George. However, Loon Lake is more breathtaking and you do not have to deal with all the crowds and terrorists. Would definitely book again! In fact I tried while being there for the 4th of July; no surprise was booked already. Thanks Amy for having my family and being apart of our memorable moments!

Lovely Fall Escape

Our group of 5 adults had a wonderful, relaxing 4 days at this VRBO. The house is quite spacious, the appliances are updated and work well, and we made great use of the canoe, kayaks, fire pit, and SONOS speaker system. We wish there were beach towels (but perhaps we just didn't find them in the house) and we struggled a bit to figure out how to work the coffee machine, so maybe some instructions would be helpful! Wonderful location close to Lake George and Albany, and it was easy to access (within an hour drive) many hiking trails in the area!

Great property, relaxing vacation

My family has been vacationing by the ocean for years, this was our first vacation spent by a lake and it turned out to be the most relaxing time ever! The beach was on the property and when the kids didn’t feel like swimming, they went out with the canoe and kayaks. We were fishing, hiking, making s’mores, playing games,…it was wonderful. The home was clean, well equipped, spacious, and the neighborhood was quiet and peaceful. Communication with the property owner and manager was easy, fast and sufficient. We are hoping to be back again!
