First time venturing this far north and couldn't have been happier with the cottage. Very comfortable and an ideal location for our 2-wk stay with close friends. Extra bedroom and large master bedroom as well as wifi made it possible to work remotely. The well kept yard much more expansive and the site much more beautiful than pictures reveal, with plenty of space for two outdoorsy t/ween boys and active pup. Woods and river were a wonder and it was great to be able to simply walk out to fish. An excellent launch pad for exploring Adirondack Park just south and found many good hikes, swimming, and boating opportunities nearby plus good tennis courts, farm stand, groceries in Malone. Loved the firepit, patio dining area/grill, porch, hot tub, and appreciated the updated kitchen and bathrooms, comfortable beds and seating, and charming details. Host thoughtfully provided outdoor games and advice on area. Great place to unwind and disconnect from city life. A real balm for our boys and us and just what we needed. Hope to come again.
