Our Expectations of Guests
Taking Care
We are a small family business simply trying to navigate what the new normal is while also trying to maintain the health of our guests and ourselves. We expect that our guests have taken great care and precaution, as we have, to self-quarantine and social distance. We know the Adirondacks is beloved to many which is why we’re opening our doors in a limited way. We will welcome guests who have self-quarantined prior to arrival for 14 days and who are feeling well and healthy. We expect our guests to be honest - that they have not come into contact with anyone that has had active COVID-19. Our cabins host 8 or fewer people. Only one cabin will be rented to each party. We will disallow congregating in groups of more than 10. This restriction may ease later in the summer. If you do not feel you can meet these expectations, please cancel your reservation.

One of the most relaxing vacations we have ever had!
Honestly, staying here was the perfect getaway retreat. No TVs or cell phone distractions - just a beautiful, calming lake and amazing hosts. The perfect place to finally finish those books you started months ago and to reset from the hustle and bustle of life. We will definitely try to make this an annual trip. Thank you Marjorie and Cliff for making this such a wonderful experience!

Weekend Getaway
We throughly enjoyed our weekend at Adelle cabin. The cabin was exactly as described and shown. Marjorie was great, and very responsive to any questions we had prior to our stay. We loved the location and enjoyed our morning sitting on the dock, we even saw a bald eagle fly over! :) The cabin was great for providing a home base and was close to hiking and town. I would recommend staying if you're looking to get away from it all and unplug from the hustle and bustle.

About the host

Hosted by Marjorie Cochran

Host profile image
We own several properties in the area and this cabin is one of our favorites. We have lived in the Adirondacks since 1991 but have been part-time residents since the 1960s. We even attended the 1980 Winter Olympics in Lake Placid! We can offer suggestions for activities unless you simply want to rest and relax in a cabin.

Why they chose this property

This is the most scenic area in the east! It is an easy place to rest, relax and enjoy life at a slower pace. Kiwassa Lake is an idyllic and quiet lake and most guests return year after year to get away from the hustle and bustle of a faster pace.

The cabin offers a wonderful deck with Adirondack chairs that allow guests to put their feet up, read a book and soak up the view of the lake. As night falls, the fire pit on site allows for an outdoor ambiance like none other.

Often guests will take in a sighting of our lake loon and its beautiful calls. Other guests have said they have seen eagles, deer, fish jumping, wild types of birds, etc…

What makes this property unique

Our property is a dream come true. While there I enjoy bird watching, reading and traveling by boat to the nearby Village of Saranac Lake.
