YouTube search "LoZa House vacation rentals" for videos of the property and units.

The Adirondack Screened in Porch Unit, of LoZa House has a cedar finishing that gives you the cozy cabin feeling with a Superb view of Lake Champlain, and on clear days, the mountains of Vermont! Whether you are sitting in the screened in porch, outside on the shore or inside with the windows open you can enjoy the sound of the water lapping on the rocky shore. The large screened in porch allows you to enjoy the outdoors in almost all inclement weather. Eat your meals, play cards, play pool, play darts with velcro balls, play table football/soccer [foosball] or just curl up on the sofa and listen to nature that surrounds you.

Peace and tranquility of the country but only 12 minutes from downtown Plattsburgh, shopping/restaurant strip and very long Plattsburgh City public beach.

The 270-degree rocky waterfront on our property can be reached either by walking the grassy slopes, or using the 2 flights of stairs. There are two rocky beaches/swimming locations on the property - the North end and the East end. The East end is a rocky shoreline with deeper waters ideal for teens and adults or little ones if parents are in the water with them. The East end waterline also has a picnic table and large parasol at your disposal to enjoy a meal with the waterline right next to you. The North end rocky beach/shoreline on our property has much shallower waters ideal for younger children of age 5+ who can typically get in and out of the water easily by themselves if they have the right footwear for the rocky beach consisting mostly of small rocks.

Near the East end rocky shoreline there is a Solo Stove firepit for you to roast marshmallows or hotdogs with wood provided nearby. Of note, sturdy water shoes [or something like them] are recommended while swimming so please bring these along with you to optimize your enjoyment while in the waters adjacent to the property. You also have access to a few complementary water-craft (canoe, paddle boat and kayak). Canoes, kayaks, boats, and yachts can be rented nearby [we can help/guide you with this if required].

Besides dipping yourself into the lake waters off either the North or East rocky shorelines at the edge of the property there is also the outdoor [chlorine] hot tub you can dip yourself into just outside the door to your screened in porch. Often in the summer we keep this as a small pool for the kids (minimal heat), or we can adjust to adult temperatures for a relaxing soak in the steaming traditional hot tub. Upon prior notice the temperature can be adjusted as you like. Typically, we turn the heat down in the summer to allow a cool place to relax while enjoying the spectacular views of the lake. In the colder months we can adjust the temperature to accommodate adults or children.

The house is located on a dead-end branch of a dead-end street, creating a quiet place to play, ruminate, and relax. We do live on the premises [upper 2 floors], as such the grounds are shared with us. There is a beautiful Adirondack wooden sound-insulated locked large door that separates your rental vacation property from the stairwell that leads to the rest of the home to optimize your privacy. You will have sole use of the Adirondack Screened-in Porch (common large living/sleeping area, bathroom, and the screened in porch). The Adirondack Screened-in Porch main room contains a full Murphy bed [sleeps 2], a queen sleeper sofa [sleeps 2] and a large CordaRoy bean bag chair that can convert to a queen mattress on the floor [sleeps 2]. The bedroom has a queen bed. Full kitchen with bar fridge, toaster oven, microwave, and blender. Plates, cutlery, and basic kitchen essentials are all provided.

The kitchen also contains a study nook when you need some peace and quiet to work.

There is also a BBQ next to the hot tub that is all yours.

When it is too cold or windy outside for comfortable stays in the screened in porch there is a expandable table (4 to 6 people) for eating or working inside. You are free to use the large HD TV [with Netflix and Disney+], piano, and gas fireplace. Toys for young children (ages 3-7) can be arranged with prior notice. Your private bathroom contains a shower, toilet, and sink. There is a large driveway for kids to play on as well as a playground containing a two-story play structure with 3 swings, 3 slides, and a small climbing wall. These areas are shared with our kids. Again, toys can be arranged with prior notice. The hot tub is also shared with us [mostly our kids], of course, we will give you priority of use of while you are staying with us to optimize your vacation experience while you are here at LoZa House.

We have a young golden doodle who will love you to death [if you let him], and two young children of early grade school age. We live on the upper two floors above the Adirondack Screened-in Porch. Although the play area is also shared with the dog (named Leone - meaning Lion in italian), he is never left outside unattended. If there is a dog loose on the property, please let us know and we will bring the dog back to the neighbor's house - some neighbors have pets that find it difficult to remain on their own land [we are working on resolving this and it is getting better].

NOTE: Services available in English, Français, and Italiano.

Guests access the Adirondack Screened-in Porch via the screened in Porch. Access to this area is obtained by walking down the lawn from the driveway and past the hot tub.
Alternatively, cross the stone patio in front of the main door for the house and descend the stairs to the hot tub and the door is there.

You will have complete access to all the shared grounds.
