Charming Cottage - Lake George's Hidden Staircase

Loon Cottage, 3 Bedrooms, 1 Bath, Sleeps maximum of 4 adults and two children.

Charming cottage in Adirondack style. Large porch and outside seating for 6.

The Mystery

Do you remember Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys? What better way for your family to spend a unique and memorable Adirondack vacation than your children tucked into bed in a magic room of their own behind a hidden staircase. Where else would you want to spend a summer vacation when you were 10 years old??

The Setting

Amazing Adirondack Bungalow with great front porch, sitting atop a knoll just off route nine. Named after the Lake George State Island, Loon is located 1/2 mile south of exit 21, is in a quiet neighborhood. We are conveniently located midway between the Lake George Village strip and the Great Escape Park and the Outlets .

The cozy living room is decorated in Adirondack décor. Bright kitchen with wainscoting and table that seats 4. Outside table seats 6 with gas grill. Kitchen has all the amenities of home, full refrigerator, gas stove, coffee maker, toaster, air fryer and microwave.

Three bedrooms. The master is very large and bright with a Queen size bed, and the second bedroom has a double bed and dresser . The attic magic room has three twin beds for children age 4 to 16. Along with the cottage there is a private firepit and umbrellaed outdoor seating area for six for everyone to enjoy a cool adirondack evening.

The living room bookshelf rolls open to reveal a stairway leading to a large room (The magic room) which sleeps 3 (I would guess ages 6-14). It is the perfect place to have a memorable Adirondack vacation.

A unique feature

Also included with the cottage is an AC (some rooms), WIFI, streaming ready televisions and propane grill.

Hiking/biking Enthusiasts

One of the best amenities is that this cottage is located across the street from the Lake George Bike/hike trail. Head north for a fifteen minute ride to take a dip in Million Dollar Beach (all down hill to the lake, so a bid of a harder pedal home!) or head south to the historic "Feeder Canal.” Start the day with a hike along the same path.

Dino Roar Valley is right across the street and perfect for younger kids, and the Eagle Flyer zip line is nearby. Walk to the old time saloon for delicious barbecue. Ten minutes from the Great escape

Two miles south LG village and 2 miles north of the outlets. A perfect blending of two worlds five minutes in either direction!!

You can arrive any time after three. I will connect with you at some point. Feel free to unload and unpack and make yourself at home. Checkout is 11am. Please keep our cottage tidy and wash your dishes before checking out.
