About this property
Sprawling Estate w/ Sauna On The Water, Mountain Views close to Saranac Lake.
This is one of the most unique family estates in the Tri-Lakes region. An original William Coulter camp this 13-acre estate with boathouse and private beach just minutes from the village of Saranac Lake, in the heart of the Adirondack Mountains. The property is nothing short of magnificent, offering guests a luxurious nature retreat, only steps from the breathtaking Lower Saranac. With a main house, guest house, and boathouse all within steps of each other this is truly a one of a kind Adirondack retreat. We mainly rent to vacationing family's over adult party groups being that this is our family camp and we want our clients to treat it as if it was their own. Please let us know a little about your group when you inquire so we can be sure we are a good fit. Thanks and we look forward to hosting you at our history filled estate.

About the host
Hosted by Sam Darring

I'm a local guy who with a company in LA that builds recording studios for professional music and film engineers. My wife and I moved back here some years ago, and we live in Saranac Lake. My family owns a few vacation rentals in the area but this is by far the biggest most historical location we possess. This estate is near and dear to us and has been in our family for generations. I was swimming off the dock of this boathouse with my siblings 35 years ago and my mom 30 years before that. It's lovey to share this place, and the Adirondack experience, with folks from near and far. My family and I are excited to host you!

This area is so rich with beauty in every direction. The Adirondacks is the land of lakes and they are fantastic to venture through by land and water craft. With an easy to use Lock system boaters can get to the many different lakes that make Saranac Lake area one of a kind to explore. The local town of Saranac Lake has a wonderful vibe that makes all types of people feel welcome and at home. From Party On The Patio with live music every Thursday night to local events and Saturday morning Farmers market to enjoy its hard not to feel like you have experienced something wonderful in the far north of New York State. Come and see for yourself!
What makes this property unique
Nothing short of a step back in time this property harbors so much history. The Floyd-Jones camp, on Lower Saranac Lake, was designed in 1906 for W. Chauncey Floyd Jones of Long Island by Coulter and Westhoff, architects. The Floyd-Jones family was from Huntingdon, Long Island and Massapequa. They named their new camp, "Massapequa". Their son, Roy A. Floyd-Jones, was born in New York City June 19, 1891. Rita McMartin LeMay married Roy A. Floyd-Jones. Roy A. Floyd-Jones died in 1964. Manuel Quezon, the president of the Philippines, came to Camp Massapequa in June 1943 and again in June 1944. He had been invited by President Franklin Roosevelt to establish a government in exile in Washington, DC, but Quezon had tuberculosis and was looking for a better summer climate. The McMartin camp was secured for the visiting head of state, as were the services of Dr. John N. Hayes, a specialist at the Trudeau Sanatorium. Quezon and his staff stayed at the lodge on the lake and he claimed to be much improved after his first Adirondack summer. However, when he came back in June of 1944, he was much worse, and he died on August 1st. After a high mass celebrated by Dr. Hayes' brother, the Most Reverend Ralph L. Hayes of Pittsburgh, who just happened to be visiting, the body was taken by special train from Camp Massapequa to Washington, D.C. Many of the Coulter Great Camps in the Adirondacks have been bought and sold but Camp Massapequa has not which leaves its history intact. The whole 13 acer estate is a beautiful sight to behold and we are very happy to welcome other family's and their friends to experience it.
