This lakeside lodge is a charming Adirondack retreat.  Built in the 1920′s at or near the water’s edge, these cabins have all been skillfully renovated to include king or queen-size featherbeds, large stone fireplaces, sitting areas, pleasing to the eye rustic furniture and wet bars. All have lush bathrooms, with enormous soaking tubs and spacious separate showers. Gigantic picture windows expose out of this world lake and mountain vistas. A full Adirondack breakfast is included for all visitors,

Whether you visit in winter or summer, there is always something to do.  Winter can have you participating in a dog sled ride, skiing or ice fishing.  Summer provides opportunity for hiking, boating, playing gold, fishing, horseback riding or tennis.  For the couples, you can take a canoe out to a private island for a leisurely day alone together.

For those who want to cozy up inside, the cabins offer working fireplaces, in-room modem links and a wet bar.  The tubs are large and perfect for a nice long hot bubble bath. While all the cabins are spectacular, one stands above the rest. Owl’s Head is a very special cabin. Set just a step or two from the edge of the lake, the cabin’s private porch is fringed by a small, tumbling brook. The room has a vast hand-crafted stone fireplace and a king-size featherbed shaped from a tree. In the vast bathroom, there is a two-person jacuzzi jet tub, a dry sauna, and a six-headed steam shower. This spacious, one-room suite is the most luxurious and romantic.

Ascending the stairs to the third floor we come to the aptly named Moonlit Suite. With a queen sized bed there is also a full sized bed in an alcove for that occasional additional guest. There is even a sitting room and a double Jacuzzi to add to the comforts. With its mahogany four-poster bed and colonial furnishings the Champagne and Roses suite is ideal for the romantic side.

If your tastes run towards the classics, then Zelda’s room is truly taken from The Great Gatsby. This two-room suite features a brass queen sized bed.

Echoing our puritan beginnings, twin four-poster double beds accent the Quilt room.

On the first floor we find the Willow Room with its white iron and brass queen sized bed. Truly American is the Smithfield Suite with its red, white and blue quilt on the high converted rope double bed. With wallpaper by Raymond Waites and a collection of cottage country pine, the Harlow Suite is simple elegance. The headboard of the queen-sized bed has painted panel insets that echo the graceful floral motif of each corner of the room.
