Lakefront Cottage - spectacular views, outdoor fireplace, large dock.

Stay in a lakefront dream cabin with 220 feet of waterfront and spectacular views!! Enjoy this newly remodeled and newly furnished cabin with a bird's eye view of the expanse of the lake. Situated perched up at the end of the peninsula, it adds privacy and tranquility. For some fun on the water, kayaks can be rented and delivered straight to the property for your convenience. The cove by the dock adds swimming safety from boats and the gradual decline allows for wading. With the cabin surrounded by tall trees, it feels like a treehouse in a cozy woodland escape. Feel the warmth and hear the crackling fire in the outdoor fireplace where you can roast marshmallows, or grill a yummy BBQ lunch. Conveniently located.

The nearest airport is Ogdensburg Airport, 31 miles from the accommodation.

There are twenty five original charming steps reminiscent of a Irish woodland fairytale going down to the home from the dirt road where you park. On a warm summer night, if you’re lucky, fireflies in the trees make it magical. On the level of the home is where you will find a wood burning outdoor fireplace where guests can make smores or grill. Twenty steep steps will take you down to the next level down to a look out deck where you can see the boats going by. Further down, approximately thirty steps will take you to the recently renovated dock where there is a step ladder into the water for some splashing fun.
