The main floor is comprised of a custom kitchen with beautiful yellow spruce cabinets that were custom built from the stand of spruce trees where the cabin was built . The 18' stone island makes for an enjoyable meal preparation and gathering area, a dining room with seating for 12, and bistro table seating for 4 .

The perfect getaway

My family and I were looking for a place to get away after experiencing a devastating loss. We were hoping to find a nice place in a remote area to spend time as a family. From when the host reached out before we went and after we left she made sure everything was perfect for us.

Amy is Awesome!

We do an ADK family/friends/business retreat every year. In addition to the Black Bear Lodge being stocked better than we have seen in a decade, there were extras like custom coffee, and a couple of nice treats. We lacked for nothing and the lodge was exceptionally spacious and well appointed with a pool table, chess board, games, books, magazines, spices, cook and tableware. We actually got to meet Amy and what a good soul...Amy and her Black Bear Lodge were a great choice!

Great Place!

Excellent place, plenty of room to to hang out in different groups or all together. It looks as nice as it's pictures or better. We've been going to LG for years and staying in hotels. All the hotels up there are old and dingy. This year we all (13) stayed together and were extremely happy we did. The kitchen has everything you need to make what ever. The place is very clean and comfortable.

Stunning property and accommodations

We stayed here with a group of 11 women in our 30s. The hostess was incredibly accommodating and answered all of my questions leading up to our stay. The house hosted us all very comfortably with so many options to spend time outside, on the spacious patio and games to enjoy each others company. The location is great for heading into Boltons Landing or Lake George.

Annual family

Grounds and house were lovely. Craftsmanship of the cabin is astonishing. Every bedroom and room immaculate. We had a great stay. Our family of 9 stayed here for a week. Had a great time. There was plenty of space for us to spread out and we loved the porch. The house had some games and puzzles. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked. It was close to the grocery store and about a 25 minute ride to the lake. Black Bear Lodge is in a great location, clean, well maintained and lots of property for the grandkids to run around. Amy was helpful with suggestions for things to do and quick to respond to texts.We would definitely rent again and recommend it to other friends/family.

Beautiful cabin

We had an amazing time. The property is gorgeous, clean, and very well kept. There were plenty of amenities from the kitchen to the game room/lounge. We had warmer than usual weather and the snow melt prevented us from using the large fire pit, so we made s'mores in the fireplace. Check-in was a breeze . Amy stayed in contact with us throughout our stay, and made every effort to be accommodating. This all made for a great experience and I couldn't recommend this place more.

Excellent Cabin!

We were a group of three who stayed for two nights. Cabin was easy to get to, close to Lake George and the grocery store was nearby. Kitchen was well stocked for cooking. Grill started right up. Cabin was well furnished and very comfortable. Deck has a good assortment of outdoor furniture. Amy was very responsive to our inquiries during the booking process and before check in.

Spectacular log cabin!!

I can't say enough about your home. We were so taken with the natural beauty and ambiance you have created. I wish there had been one more bathroom as there were 8 of us, but that wouldn't stop me from returning again in the near future. You almost felt like you never wanted to leave the cabin.......it was absolutely perfect....

Amazing Property in a Great Area

My family had a wonderful extended stay in this awesome cabin. Rustic yet upscale with many amenities, beautiful view, quiet country neighborhood, and plenty of things to do for fun and excitement. The owner was great, staying in touch to answer any questions we had and made recommendations for our stay. A truly memorable trip with our adult kids. Plenty of room for each couple to have some space, and a super, large kitchen for cooking together. The outside fire pit and nightly blanket of stars made for many awe-inspiring nights.

Gorgeous home on a gorgeous property!

Amy was so accommodating and the home is comfortable and spacious. The kids enjoyed the pool table and having a space downstairs to relax and play games. The adults enjoyed the deck and porches for morning coffee and evening chats. Amy really has done a beautiful job decorating her home with authentic Adirondack style furniture and decor, which we enjoyed. I highly recommend this vacation home.

About the host

Hosted by Amy Combs-Baker

Host profile image
Our family grew up here in the beautiful Adirondack Mountains. My husband, children and I built the cabin .Ten years from start to completion. My husband passed before we were able to finish it together. Our children and family members helped finish the cabin and readied it for vacation rental. We love sharing the cabin, its building stories and all it has to offer.

Why they chose this property

We love the beauty, peace and quiet. Yet Lake George, Saratoga and North Creek for all they have to offer are about a 30 minute drive or less.

What makes this property unique

The cabin offers privacy and quiet. Also a chance to experience the warmth ,comfort and beauty of a true log cabin, and the wonder of the quiet woods.
The cabin is located nearby North Creek, Lake George, Warrensburg, as well as Schroon, Loon, Garnet & Brant Lakes. The Hudson & Schroon Rivers are minutes away. We are on the recommended list for nearby wedding venues Promise Gardens/Burlap & Beams, Echo Lake Lodge, The Bond and Adirondack Northwoods Event Center. For larger groups over12 guest, please view Moose Mountain Lodge listing #1252277
Both rentals are immaculately cleaned & sanitized for each guest.
