Perfect 4th of July weekend

The cabin was adorable and the perfect size for me, my husband, his brother and his brother's wife. The location was close to town, but felt like you were in the woods. We spent alot of time on the front porch watching for wildlife.

Beautiful home on a quiet street. Brian was quick to respond to any messages. Check in process was simple and easy and the caretakers (Scott and Melissa) also shared their knowledge of the area. The home had everything we needed and was well kept.

Wonderful cabin for a family vacation

We had a wonderful time staying at this cabin. We really appreciated the help from Melissa and Scott, the caretakers--they are wonderful. The cabin was clean and charming and provided more than enough relaxing space for us. My daughters enjoyed sleeping in the loft, playing foosball, and seeing deer in the backyard and a bear across the street. The location was very convenient to the grocery store and restaurants in Old Forge. Would love to stay here again.

My family had a fantastic stay at the Spruce Moose! The house was charming and clean and had everything we needed. The kitchen was fully equipped, there were fun games for rainy days, and there were thoughtful touches in every room to make the stay comfortable and convenient. The location is a quiet setting on a friendly street, private but still near lots of great attractions like hiking and the water park. We enjoyed seeing wildlife in the yard from the sunroom and spent time relaxing on the lovely front porch. Communication with the owner and property manager was great every step of the way. We can’t recommend this enough.

Excellent Property!

This was the second time my family and I stayed at this property. Our favorite part about this home is how it really gives the Adirondack feel compared to other properties. Both times we’ve stayed at this property it’s been clean upon arrival and the property managers are friendly and helpful. The location is perfect, 5 minute drive to town, but also definitely walkable. I’d recommend this place to anyone who wants to stay in Old Forge!

Great vacation spot

This cabin is beautiful! It has all the amenities needed for a convenient vacation. The property is beautiful and allowed us to have bonfires every evening (except for one rainy night). Our kids loved riding their bikes and scooters up and down the driveway, playing in the front yard, on the porch and were comfortable inside as well. This property is close enough to everything to be convenient, but far away enough to feel secluded. Lots of wildlife and quiet. The property managers, Melissa and Scott were helpful and friendly and offered their services at any time if needed. Highly recommend!

Love this place!

This was our 3rd time staying here and it never disappoints! We love the open living space, the kitchen is well-appointed and has everything you need for cooking and even baking. We love sitting on the covered front porch, making a fire in the fire pit and having s’mores. The gas grill is a fantastic new addition. The home is always clean. We just love spending our long weekends in the ADK here. The owner, Brian, is very quick to respond and the caretakers, Melissa and Scott, are super friendly and always check in prior to arrival as well as upon Checkin for anything needed. We will be back next year!!

Spruce Moose exceeded our expectations!

The Spruce Moose was more than perfect for me and my 20 y.o. son during our long weekend (3-night) stay. It exceeded our expectations! Check-in & communications with Melissa were easy and excellent. It’s very spacious and well equipped, updated & appointed. You can tell the owners take great pride in their property. We didn’t use the 2nd floor bedroom, which would be great for kids - just the 2 downstairs bedrooms. We used the front porch in mornings and evenings. Fire pit in the front yard and propane grill in the back. Quiet Adirondack wooded neighborhood. Close to Thendara & Old Forge. We always drove. Moose River nearby. Short walk/drive to Green Bridge where you can launch kayaks in the Moose River. We’d return to the Spruce Moose in a heartbeat! Thank you!

Cozy place!

We came here for a few days during the solar eclipse. Melissa and scott, the care talkers, were very sweet and attentive. A car accident had actually knocked out power to the whole town just before we showed up, but the place has a generator so we still had everything! cabin is a10 minute walk from town which was really fun to explore! We saw a mama and baby deer in the back yard on day 1. The kids (9 &14) could not get enough of the Foosball table and the adults discover the ring & hook game on the front porch while having coffee in the morning, it became a whole tournament! This place felt so cozy and inviting, it really was a home away from home.

Beautiful Adirondack home in a perfect location!

We found the camp in Thendara while looking for places to stay to hike around Old Forge. The reservation process was quick and easy, this was the first time I have used VRBO and so I was impressed at how simple it is! I emailed a question to Brian and he responded almost immediately and the caretakers Scott and Melissa called us with information and met us when we arrived to take us through the camp. The house is beautiful, newly renovated and extremely clean and well-kept but also cozy with lots of great ADK details like the stunning stone wall and open beamed living room. The house is also super close to everything you'd want to do in the area - hiking and kayaking are minutes away and you are also minutes from the village of Old Forge where there are tons of shops and restaurants. We had a great time in this beautiful home and hope to return when the fall leaves are in full display!
