Very nice house and lots of space. Sandy bottom shallows made for fun times with the kids. Bonus is that there were Labor Day fireworks in the harbor. 4 stars for location as the house is on the channel from Old Forge proper to the main lake (1st) but plenty wide enough feel like lake front. Dock was a plus for boat tie up. Owners were very nice and responsive.

Delightful Stay

This home was probably the most beautiful place we’ve ever stayed. The 4 of us vacation together all over the world but decided to travel closer to home because of covid. We loved everything about the home, the surroundings, and the very friendly neighbors.

Best Location

This was our 2nd year staying at this property! We won't stay anywhere else in Old Forge! The location is close to everything but still private! The furnishings and bedrooms are the perfect layout for families and the backyard overlooking the lake is nice and flat. We rented a pontoon boat and docked it right there. Will be booking every year for the family vacay!

Awesome cabin

It was a wonderful week! The location and cabin are beautiful and close to town. The yard is a large flat area…great for play area and bonfire. There is no AC, but there is a ceiling fan in each bedroom and the main room. Would definitely recommend it and we would stay there again if we were back in the area.
