About this property

Private lot on large lake in northern Adirondacks

Beautiful recent home on Chazy lake in the northern part of the Adirondacks. Home is on a very private mini peninsula with 300 feet of waterfront.
Nearby attractions: only 5 minute drive to trail head of majestic Lyon mountain (3840'). This is a popular hiking destination with a system of 2 trails making the climb doable in a loop configuration. At the top have views towards Plattsburgh, lake Champlain, Montreal and the High Peaks. Climb the century old fire tower. You are also only a 20 minute drive to great shopping deals and restaurants in Plattsburgh. 45 minutes can take you to lake placid and the high peaks region, or to the spectacular Ausable Chasm. Only 1h15 from Montreal. Only 45 minutes from the greatest vertical in the east at Whiteface. Closer to home the New Land Trust is a 10 minute drive away. A small network of trails great for short hikes or snowshoing and cross crouuntry skiing in the winter.

The house: this is a recent construction with modern materials. Open plan with vaulted ceilings. The kitchen is modern and fully equipped (gas range, microwave dishwasher, stainless steel appliances). Main bathroom has a tiled walk-in shower. Master bedroom has beautiful views and a king sized bed (Sealy Eurotop mattress). Second bedroom has a queen bed and there is a third bedroom with 3 twins. We have recently added a brand new bedroom in the basement for larger parties (up to 9 gusts). In terms of entertainement there is a flat screen TV with 120 channels, Wifi, DVD. We have a slection over 200 DVDs and Blue rays to choose from.
In winter stay extra cozy by the fireplace. The is a brand new large propane BBQ.

The property: the house is steps from the waters edge. Shoreline is shallow and sandy. Outdoor fire pit for summer campfires, sit in the chairs just to soak up the view. Use the double kayak or the paddleboard to explore beautiful Chazy lake.
The lake: Chazy lake is a pristine lake (3.5 miles long) in the northern part of the Adirondacks, also known for great fishing.

We keep a security camera in the furnace area of the basement to keep an eye on the mechanics of the house and we have recently innstalled a ring type doorbell outside the front door.

Beautiful property on a beautiful lake

This was our 3rd stay as usual enjoyed it. The lake is mostly quiet, although this year there were some properties clear and cutting trees, so that wasn’t quiet, however we have no control over that. We enjoyed the view of the lake as well as swimming and paddling boarding. We hope to be back again.

Property was exactly as described and was a great location. The view from the bedroom was beautiful. We especially liked being able to just wander around in the woods. I bet it's a lot of fun in the summer too!

Peak foliage!

Absolutely amazing property, especially so during peak foliage. Comfortably furnished, with fabulous views of the lake. Dock and Adirondack chairs outside ideal for curling up w coffee and a book, loons, geese and duck companions. Kitchen nicely appointed with all you might need to cook in, which we advise. Further advise getting groceries in Plattsburgh, as other markets on drive in were bleak. Hiking close-by. Would love to return.

The view never gets old!

Our third stay on Chazy Lake did not disappoint. We love this house and the private access to the lake and the little cove it sits on. It is a perfect place to enjoy the lake and our kayaks, but also an ideal base camp for activities in the area. We enjoyed day trips to Burlington and Ausable Chasm while there. Even though the area got a significant storm the night we arrived, and more rain was forecasted for the week, the house weathered the storm well, and nearly all of the rain the rest of the week skirted around us. Christian was quick to respond as always, and we look forward to returning again next year!

Beautiful stay despite the weather.

This was our first stay at this property, but not our first stay in the area. We were a little hesitant to book because our last stay at the other location was less than ideal. So glad we went ahead and booked. The house is beautiful, well decorated, clean and well equipped. There were 6 of us, my family of 4, plus my parents. We gave my parents the choice of bedrooms, they chose the ground floor (because the stairs would be difficult for my dad after back surgery). And it worked perfect, we each had our quiet space when needed, and had our own bathrooms. The view from the kitchen/dining area of the lake was stunning. Because of the weather we didn’t get to spend much time outside, but enjoyed the large dining table to play cards and games. It was a great place to make memories for our 3 generation group. We are definitely interested in staying again in the future.

Our Honeymoon away from it all

No Hot water or heat the first 24 hrs but promptly fixed by owner efforts. Main bathroom sink mostly plugged, purchased draino, stopper also not functional. Extreme lady bug infestation outside front entrance. Swept 3 times per day. Have photo showing a pile of many hundreds. Inside house we killed 50 minimum per day. 5 Dog poops in the yard and only stepped in one. Despite those issues we really had a great stay and it would have been a 5 star otherwise. 4.5 stars we give it.

Gorgeous Winter Solitude

We spent a lovely week here. We arrived in sub-zero temps after dark, but the home was warm and welcoming. We had everything we needed including tp, paper towels, trash bags, soap, tissues and extra blankets. The house is very secluded and we only ever glimpsed the trash man and some ice fisherman the entire time we were there. The snow was over a foot deep when we arrived, and it snowed tiny little flakes off and on all week. The scenery is gorgeous from every single window, snow-laden evergreens and icicles dripping from the windows. My kids made a snow-fort out of the plowed snow and we traipsed through the state woods which felt like Narnia. The house is small and cozy, we comfy beds and a wonderful fireplace (which runs best with the doors shut). The appliances are upscale brands and the underfloor heating feels lovely. I recommend stopping by the Farmhouse Pantry in Saranac for local meats and veggies as well as take-out meals and coffee drinks. I hope we will get to come back in the summer to see what the lake is like when it's not frozen!

Winter Wonderland

Great host with a wonderful property! We were looking for winter, and we found it here. The house is super cozy with heated floors, a fireplace, and a marvelously hot shower. We were close to snowshoeing trails, and the lake view was killer. We had enough rooms for naps and introvert time AND a great space for watching movies and playing board games together. We’ll be back!

A peaceful weekend getaway

We stayed at this lake house for a weekend away from our daily busy lives. This home was so relaxing and had the most incredible views. We enjoyed the outdoors with fishing off the dock and the cool evenings by the fireplace. The host was very responsive and communicated with the us throughout our stay whenever we had questions. We will be back here again with our family. Truly a wonderful experience.

Family trip

Aside from a large ladybug and fly infestation in the house, it was a fine stay. Just hard to sleep when being pelted by ladybugs all night. And as it got cold overnight, tons of dead bugs on the floor every morning. Great location on the water with views that made it worthwhile.

Relaxation

Exactly what we were looking for. Peaceful setting. Amazing sunrise views. Small dock good for fishing. Shoreline near dock is sandy and gradual. Outdoor chairs comfortable (plus size comfy). Plenty of firewood on site. Host very responsive with questions. Kitchen has everything you need. Laundry area in basement worked perfect for us. Even had a drying rack available.
