Location excellent. Very peaceful. Would go again. Some things being replaced/needed repair (dishwasher, paddleboard, paddleboat) but communication with owners was excellent.
The Lake House is everything you could imagine and much more. The setting, the water, the wildlife, the stars…we could go on and on. It wasn’t our first time and won’t be our last. The hosts are spot on with everything. Bravo!!!
Beautiful property and excellent stay. House was better than advertised/ pictured. Views of the lake from every room . Great amenities to use on the property. Would definitely stay here again
We had a great time utilizing the Lake House as our home base. We went boating, fishing and swimming and enjoyed many things that the local area had to offer. Communication was great and we plan to return next year!
Once again we had an amazing vacation on Lake Flower. We could have just hung on the deck all week and enjoyed the beautiful scenery! We noticed some improvements and really appreciated how well stocked the house was.
Our group loved the Lake House! It was a great base for nearby hiking and paddling as well as a beautiful spot for relaxing, enjoying mountain & lake views and hanging out with loved ones. We will definitely be returning!
My family and I enjoyed the comforts of home here. The house is cozy and the views of Saranac Lake from the living room windows provide endless entertainment, for even the littlest guest (our 10 month old). We appreciated the hot tub for soaking after climbing a 46er, walking to the local farmers market, paddle boarding and fishing.
We had a very nice amd relaxing time there. The house is very beutiful, 4 br was enough for all of us, rooms where clean. Kitchenware were very useful. The outdoor landscape was eye catching. Lake view was mesmerizing. If youre looking for a true relaxtion I'll definitely recommend it.
This was our second stay at the Lake House. Host is responsive, house is immaculate, quiet neighborhood, best waterfront access and views of entire Lake Flower. My family calls it “ a little slice of heaven “. Have rented for years on Lake George and Hadlock Pond. And this is a superior property and experience to both of those locations. Your only issue will be getting a reservation for the week before Memorial Day - because I will be booking that week again for next year :)
Very highly recommend.
Wonderful lakefront home on such a peaceful lake. Very quiet. Plenty of room for 8 people. We could walk to town and browse the shops. Brought our boats and toured up the locks. Guys went fishing. I kayaked every morning. House has everything you would need. Easy entry and easy checkout. Definitely would rent again! Thank you for sharing your home with us.
We stayed here with our friends (two couples, three kids) for Thanksgiving weekend. The house was just gorgeous. It snowed the whole weekend, and sitting in the warm living room looking out upon the scenery couldn’t have been more idyllic.
The house is huge. The older kids had a great time in the lower level twin bedroom rooms. The youngest stayed in the loft next to her parents upstairs, and we stayed in the main level.
The house is so cozy. The kitchen is well stocked with pans and good knives (a pleasant surprise in a rental!). The grill and jacuzzi worked well.
It’s a five minute drive to a grocery store, liquor store, and other conveniences. Lake place is about a twenty minute easy drive.
We hope to come back!
We came to this property in Sarnac Lake with a group of friends for a weekend getaway. The property is right on the lake and is beautiful. The views of the lake from the deck, living room, and loft upstairs are great. I only wish it was warmer so we could have enjoyed the deck and outside area more! The house was well equipped with everything we needed for our weekend and the hot tub was simply perfect. The only thing I will say was that it seemed like no one had been at the property for awhile, lots of cobwebs/dust around the house. But honestly that did not deter our weekend one bit. One of the neighbors actually even came over to say hello and give us some info/recommendations for the area. We would definitely stay here again in the future.
Positives
1 Location - love the lake/area, easy/fast to get everywhere
2 Nice jacuzzi - privacy
3 Nice kayaks
4 High-capacity laundry, love them
5 Fast internet
6 Nice supply of shampoo, etc in baths
7 Ample good quality dishware and silverware
Negatives
1 House really only 'broom clean', not actually clean for us
2 Mold, from lake humidity and no A/C (we are sensitive to it, most are not):
- Average upstairs, bit more on main level, more in lowest level (we only went down there once).
Owners are willing and easy to talk to, house is being improved on a regular basis, neighbors are nice and helpful, super location, lots of things to do within 30 minutes, Saranac Lake is a nice strolling town within 10 mins walk. Gorgeous lake view all day/eve.
We had a great time at the Lake House. The house was very comfortable and well outfitted, and it was great being lakefront with a dock to swim and kayak off of.
Second time staying here. Great location. Walkable to town and quiet area. House has everything you need. Easy check in and out. Host was very easy to communicate with. Beautiful sight to sit and relax!
