About this property
Loon Watch. Private Adirondack Lakefront house on Lake Algonquin in Wells, NY
This beautiful, 3-story, single-family home was built in 1920 and recently renovated, located right on Lake Algonquin. Lake Algonquin is located in the Adirondack Mountains of New York and offers a serene and picturesque setting. Properties in this area are highly sought after for their natural beauty, year-round recreational opportunities, and tranquility.
Lake Algonquin is surrounded by lush forests and rolling hills, providing stunning views and a peaceful atmosphere. It is ideal for activities such as boating, fishing, kayaking, and swimming. There is a public boat launch and a wheelchair-accessible fishing area on the lake.
The home is located in town, close to local country stores, and services yet offers a high degree of privacy, making it perfect for a getaway retreat or a small family reunion.
The public beach along Lake Algonquin is just a three-minute walk.
The home has 5 bedrooms and 2.5 baths with one bedroom on the main floor for easy access. There are a total of 14 rooms including a Family room, Living room, Dining room, Kitchen, Office, and Library. The floors are immaculate- including marble, tile and hardwood.
Appliances include a dishwasher, microwave, oven, refrigerator, washer/dryer and
A/C throughout the home.
Three Smart TVs throughout the home: Family room, Master bedroom and Queen bedroom.
Strong Wifi throughout the house.
There is a one car, attached garage for your usage.
There is a stairway that leads down to the water where kayaks and canoes are located, an Adirondack fire pit next to the lake and a dock for fishing or tanning.
A ladder is attached to the dock making it easier to get in and out of the water.
Charcoal and Gas grill for use - Propane is not provided for gas grill. Charcoal is not provided for charcoal grill. The amount left by previous guests may vary. You can purchase both at local stores.
Firewood is additional and upon request. You can also purchase firewood at many locations in town.
Waterfalls/hiking trails: There are multiple relaxing and picturesque hikes and waterfalls in the area. Specific suggestions are listed in the house manual.
Hiking Safety:
It is very easy to get lost if you go off-trail in the Adirondacks. Be sure that you carry a compass, GPS, map, and provisions. Make sure you have a headlamp.
Hunting season begins in mid-September. You MUST wear hunter orange (a vest and/or hat, etc. ) so you can be seen while hiking.
The surrounding Adirondack Park offers hiking, biking, and winter sports like skiing, snowshoeing, and snowmobiling.
Gore Mountain is 30 miles away for winter lovers.
Saratoga Race Track is one hour away.
Please keep noise levels to a reasonable minimum before 8am and after 10pm to respect our neighbors.
