The cottage was private and nestled in a forested hillside not far from the main house. A short walk brought you from looking out a beautiful forest to a few of the surrounding mountains.

Peaceful Adirondack cabin.

Charming cabin in Adirondack woods. Clean, spacious and comfortable. Many porches looking out into trees. Near main house but very private. Beautiful meadow with spectacular mountain views -- including Giant in far distance. Kyle is a great host, thoughtful and responsive. Lovely place to relax in the beautiful Adirondacks.
