Coming in to the great room from from the porch and lake.
It is no exaggeration to say this home is stunningly beautiful on all sides!
Fishing boat with outboard motor, kayaks, canoes, paddle boards, inflatables
Mountains, lake, and land (from the boat house) are beautiful at all hours.
And looking the other way from the boat house...still so beautiful.

Beautiful Camp Saranac
We enjoyed our stay so much at this beautiful house and property. The house had all the amenities one could want. We enjoyed the fabulous kitchen, porches, game room and boathouse with a wonderful view and all the boats one could want. The area is great for hiking as well a the close towns of Lake Placid, Saranac Lake, Tupper lake.

Camp Saranac deserves 5 stars plus
Wow, wow, wow. Believe all of the 5 star reviews for this lovely vacation retreat. The location is great- right on Upper Saranac Lake just a short drive to Tupper Lake, Saranac Lake, or Lake Placid. We come to the Adirondacks for the beauty and the outdoor activities. There is an abundance of both at Camp Saranac. Our family of 10 took advantage of the kayaks, canoe, paddle board and fishing boat to explore the lake. We also took advantage of the recommendations for nearby day hikes suitable for a wide range of ages. The evening ping pong tournaments capped off the day. The home itself is beautiful and spacious with several comfortable seating areas depending on the weather or just your mood. We preferred cocktail hour on the deck and after dinner on the screened in porch with a fire on cool evenings. The beds are extremely comfortable. Everyone in our party commented on how well they slept - starting with the very first night. The kitchen is outfitted with everything you could possibly need. The owners have provided so many amenities and are wonderful to work with. Thanks to the Stevens family for sharing their beautiful retreat!

Saranac family vacation
The house was fantastic! With 12 people it was the ideal size to get together but yet if you wanted some personal space it was possible to have that also. The kitchen was a joy to cook in. Well outfitted and plenty of extras. The recreation room was used mostly in the evenings and provided entertainment for all. All of the "toys" in boathouse provided extra excitement for children and adults alike. Boathouse was ideal for our 21 ft.boat. The steps to get up and down to lake and boathouse are many. Once down to lake and atop of boat house the many chairs, umbrella made for a relaxing time. The only thing we found that needed attention was the room over the garage needed some additional cleaning. We did not meet with onsite property manager to discuss our concerns regarding this. It would have been nice to use, but the main house was capable of handling our sleeping arrangements. We would love to go back again.

About the host

Hosted by The Stevens Family

Host profile image
We designed our family vacation home with renowned Adirondack architect, Michael Bird. Family fun and a break from busy lives have always been at the forefront of our planning and updates. Each year our extended family makes the journey from all over the world to enjoy time together and share in the wonder of the majestic Adirondacks. Hailing from Wisconsin, Washington, DC, Buffalo, Albany, NY, (okay, not too far) and Singapore (in Asia), we all come twice a year to enjoy both summer fun and winter holidays. Our happiest family moments and memories create the foundation for the beautiful energy you will experience as you create your own memories with friends and family.

Why they chose this property

We knew we wanted a place in Upstate New York to honor our family roots. We traveled the entire state in search of the perfect spot to both enjoy life and relax. The Finger Lakes are lovely. The Catskills, beautiful in their own right, are certainly more convenient. Lake George and Saratoga are famous and fun. We were so fortunate to find the perfect spot on crystal clear Upper Saranac Lake with its truly unique combination of activities galore, peaceful days, and spectacular views in the magnificent Adirondack Mountains. We love going into nearby Saranac Lake for window browsing or a quick bite and to Lake Placid for dinner out, movies, summer concerts, winter skating, and skiing.

What makes this property unique

Our home was built with family, fun, and relaxation at top of mind every step of the way. You can all be together ... while you also each have some space. Our kitchen is stocked to prepare chef's dinners for 15+ people because we so value the friend and family gatherings around the table. We leave the boats, games, and sporting equipment out for guests to use because our hope is that you'll love being there just as much as we do. Our trusted on-call caretaker lets us know as soon as we need any updates and ensures that your stay goes smoothly.
