Adorable Historic Adirondack Lakefront Cottage on Long Lake

Cozy wainscot interior with comforts for a couple, or two adults and one infant or very small child (under 5). Cottage has one bedroom with a queen bed, a living room with a sofa bed and two chairs. There is a breakfast bar and a table that seats four. The kitchen has a gas stove, oven, refrigerator, microwave, toaster and coffee maker. The location is the highlight, in private vacation enclave (historic resort property) on the shore of Long Lake in the heart of the Adirondack Mountains. Somewhat steep path to the shared beach. Close to hiking trails and great fishing right off the dock. Only 7 miles from the famous Adirondack Museum-Adirondack Experience and 25 minutes from the spectacular Wild Center and Wild Walk at Tupper Lake.

We keep returning for a reason...

We have now stayed at Richard and Hillarie's property four or five times, and each time we stay we're just as excited to come back as we were for our first visit. The peaceful Adirondack atmosphere, the perfect location right on the lake, the friendly and welcoming hosts...we couldn't ask for a better experience. We love the Honeymoon Cottage, and can't wait for our stay next year!

Fabulous little ADK lodge

This was a fabulous little long lake lodge for a couples getaway - close to great hiking and we launched our kayaks and paddleboards right on the little beach out front. Just can’t say enough about how charming this spot is what a splendid location to watch the sunset and enjoy the morning sky over the lake… hosts were on the property nearby and Very accommodating to any needs ! Would definitely return …

Our second visit to the Honeymoon

The Honeymoon is a comfortable small cabin on the shores of beautiful Long lake. It is a kayakers dream with access to the lake directly from the cabin beach. We enjoyed the paddling and fishing. The sunsets were beautiful and starry night skies gorgeous! We loved hearing the owls while sitting around the outdoor fire pit. The place to visit for a peaceful and relaxing get away!

A Perfect Perch

This sweet cabin is as advertised. It sits right on the ridge beside the lake - beautiful views. We brought groceries and our kayaks - we didn't get in our car until it was time to go home. Couldn't have been a better experience.

Fabulous Cottage

The screened in porch is heavenly, overlooking Long Lake and the loons. The owner greeted us and he was very welcoming. He assured us he was nearby if we needed anything but everything was just great. We picked a winner. Thanks so much.

A real gem!!!

The cottage is located in a grove of tall pines overlooking Long Lake, with great views from a large picture window and from the screened in porch. It was very quiet and felt very private. The cottage itself was clean and well furnished, including a stove that added charm and helped keep us comfortable on cooler nites. The bathroom has a deep tub/shower that is perfect for a relaxing soak or one may choose to use the outdoor shower. Richard and Hillarie were wonderful hosts and were available to take care of any of our needs, doing so in a non-intrusive way. We look forward to staying at this property during our next trip to the Adirondaks.

Lakeside Relaxing!

This property is a gem. It has everything you need, and nothing you don't. The view alone was worth the stay. I enjoyed watching the rain roll through from the sleeping porch and relaxing in the sunshine on the beach and dock. This was a perfect spot to take out our canoe and SUP. Everything was very clean. We had our two year old son with us and he loved playing in the woods next to the property. He also loved Richard's golf cart :-) Richard was communicative, friendly and helpful.

Absolutely Perfect

The Honeymoon cottage is exactly as pictured and described on VRBO. The screened-in porch, outdoor shower, private dock and sandy beach were excellent. I kinda want to keep this place a secret so we can get the dates we want for next year. Richard gave us a bottle of wine since he had a repairman in for the kitchen stove for an hour! Great guy. Swimming was great. From the dock and cottage you look across the lake at what must be state park land...no development. This is a great charming cabin for two.

September Stay at the Honeymoon Cottage

Although the trees were beginning to turn color, we missed the peak by a week or two. Nonetheless, the setting of the Honeymoon Cottage on Long Lake is spectacular! We hiked Owl's Mountain, Castle Rock, Coney, and Goodnow. The views of the lakes and the far peaks are breathtaking. We visited the Museum of the Adirondacks and the Wild Center. Both are excellent. We rented a canoe and went on a 6 mile paddle on Long Lake. The accommodations at the Honeymoon Cottage are romantically rustic and were perfect for the two of us. However, the kitchen is a bit limited and space for your groceries is small. Richard is a gracious host. We definitely recommend the Honeymoon Cottage!

Cosy cottage with fantastic view

The cottage itself is meant for two adults, although a third person could sleep on the couch. I wouldn't recommend it though as it can be a bit uncomfortable. Kitchen and bathroom are adequate, and there is an open balcony from which you can take in the best part which is the great view overlooking the lake. Be aware of blackfly season in the mountains (typically from mid-May to mid-June) as a lot of the attractions in the area are plagued by swarms of these pesky insects. The hosts are fantastic and go out of their way to be helpful. Internet connection is slow but will be upgraded sometime in summer 2014 to a FIBRE OPTIC connection :)

A Perfect Little Cottage on the Lake!

We had a wonderful time at the Honeymoon cottage. The cottage is just the right size for a couple and it oozes old world Adirondack charm, from the wood paneling to the cozy and comfortable furnishings. The views are spectacular from just about every vantage point—from the dock and outside sitting areas when the weather permits, and from the enclosed deck and kitchen when it does not. Richard and Hillarie are wonderful hosts, ready and willing to answer any questions about the area and very responsive to any issues that may arise. At one point during our stay there was a problem with the hot water tank; not only did they get the ball rolling for an immediate fix but told us when they were coming, what was going to happen, and how long it would take. Their goal was to be accommodating and responsive, but at the same time as un-intrusive as possible. We highly recommend this beautiful little cottage, and can’t wait to return! And that outdoor shower is just about the best thing in the whole world.

Great experience!

This cabin was everything I was looking for! My six year old daughter and I stayed there for just under a week. The cabin is well maintained as is the beach area. Richard was a great, down to earth kind of person. He was easy to talk to and was respectful of trying to create that perfect balance between being friendly, while also giving me and my daughter our own space. Some people shy away from staying at cabins where the owners are on site, but this should not be a deterrent for his cabin! They are friendly, courteous and truly respectful of what you came to the Adirondacks for. The cabin was perfect in every way. It is much bigger than the pictures online make you think. The outdoor shower is well built and designed. It was great to be able to use it to wash the sand off our bodies after a day on the lake. When I read about the outdoor shower online I pictured a shower head coming out of the side of the cabin, with no privacy, but it is an actual stall with a floor and a door. My favorite part about the cabin was the enclosed front porch. The Adirondack chairs on it are comfortable and situated so you can drink your coffee in the morning and look out over the lake. The morning and late evenings on the porch brought me great solitude. Hearing the loons late at night or early in the morning was a special treat and brought back great memories for me. There is a fire ring and we had a fire almost every night. The cabin is located on Long Lake so you can do day trips in your own canoe to the Buttermilk Falls carry, the town of Long Lake, or to Big Brook. Coney Mountain has a beautiful view at top and was a great hike for me and my six year old daughter. There is so much to do and appreciate in the area. I would definitely return again to spend time at this cabin. My experience was excellent and exactly what I was looking for and needed. --Lisa

We love the cottage, there's a beautiful view of Long Lake. The beach and dock are good for swimming and fishing is good too. The whole area is very pleasant. Unfortunately, it was very hot for several days while we were there in mid-July, and the cottage is very uncomfortable for about 6 hours a day, due to southern exposure and no AC. When the sun dips behind Owls Head Mountain it cools off at night, but we tried to get away from the cottage until about 8:00 at night.

Although this property is very rustic, it was clean and well maintained. The owner, Richard, was friendly and easily accessible as he lives onsite and was outside taking care of the property. The lake front location was breathtaking. Do remember to take towels (including hand towels and wash cloths) sheets, and other “personal” amenities (I.e. body wash).

The owner is very nice.. It is a cute little cabin. I have never given a negative review on VRBO and I would never want one. But I think that people should know what they are getting,I wish I did. It doesn't say and I couldn't tell in the pictures but the neighbors are kinda close and owners live on site. The pictures on VRBO NEED to be updated. The beautiful view from the kitchen is blocked by some trees. I know it's the woods but the cabin had a very bad ant problem. Mostly in the kitchen and bathroom. I'm not sure if it was the time of year, early June, or because they had a lot of rain this year. But there was NO beach. A very sketchy dock you can walk on. There's a gas grill, not charcoal which might matter to some. You bring your own wood. No cell service. I have to say the worst thing about our stay was the gas smell coming from the stove. We did let the owner know and he said he had it checked and it was fine. But you could not be in the cabin without the windows open and fans on. At night we left all the windows open and shut the bedroom door. If you get headaches/migraines I would not recommend staying here. The last two nights were ruined because I had a migraine from the gas smell. I cleaned the cabin when I arrived and they ask you to clean when you leave. I've never been to the Adirondacks.. so I'm not sure if this is normal.. but everything closes between 4-5pm, just FYI, might be a seasonal thing. Hiking is beautiful. Bugs were baddd.
