About this property

TRIPP LAKE RETREAT sleeps 7 and is a great place to make Adirondack memories!

Tripp Lake Retreat is nestled in the woods overlooking Tripp Lake in Chestertown, NY. This peaceful get-away is easily accessed just minutes from the Adirondack Northway (Rt. 87), yet is located in a secluded setting. Since our home is in a secluded setting we have installed two security cameras. Both are outside. One is mounted on a tree near the wood box and faces the driveway and the front door. The other is mounted on the house and faces the stairs to the back door off the kitchen.
Our fully furnished 3 bedroom home has 2 full bathrooms and sleeps 7. Bedroom #1 has a King bed. Bedroom #2 has a Queen and a Twin. Bedroom #3 has a Queen bed. Queen and Twin bed linens are NOT provided. You'll have to bring those with you. King bed linens ARE provided. Bathroom and Kitchen hand towels are provided. Bath towels are NOT provided. This cuts down on the amount of laundry that must be done by my very busy housekeeper. Both bathrooms have shower/tub combinations. The kitchen with breakfast bar is fully equipped with 2 coffee makers (not Keurig coffee maker), toaster, microwave, blender, etc. The dining table in the Family Room seats up to 10 guests. Our spacious Living Room has a gas fireplace and ample seating. This living area including the Family Room is surrounded by windows that offer beautiful views of the lake and all outdoors! Enter Tripp Lake Retreat through the Mud Room, a great place to leave coats, shoes, toys, and wet beach towels. On the same level is a Laundry Room with washer and dryer. All the comforts of home are available to you while you experience Adirondack adventures during the months of July, August, and September.. We have an automatic generator so you will never have to worry about losing power!
Swim, fish, kayak, canoe, skate, on the lake or just sit on the deck and enjoy the view. If you like to hike, bike, shop, ride horses or roller coasters, have bon-fires by the lake, or sit inside by the cozy fire, Tripp Lake Retreat is an ideal vacation spot for you and your friends and family.

Our 11th year for our family business ADK retreat. We live in a gorge in the Finger Lakes so expect allot from our ADK destination. This home checked all the boxes with every provision close at hand, an immaculate atmosphere and a bit of family history in word and pictures which gave the property a warm feeling. The owner sent the check in information well in advance and was prompt and pleasant in communication. Great meals, canoeing, morning coffee on the deck - a good time was had by all!

This was a least the third time staying at Tripp Lake. We love the location and the house. Communication with Debby is easy and comfortable. The house has always felt like a home away from home. It’s clean, near towns that truly give you an Adirondack feel, and offer so many choices of things to do every day. We are always happy upon arrival, sad to leave, and look forward to next summer to come back.

Family vacation

It was the perfect place to gather with my family, my three children and their spouses and three grandchildren, 4 yo, 2 1/2 yo, and an almost two year old. We enjoyed the beach, kayaking and paddle-boarding. The house was spacious with enough spaces that we could gather together for meals or games or have some private space as needed. A pleasure to cook in the well-stocked kitchen. Beautiful location.

Celebrating with friends.

My friends and I enjoyed our stay at Tripp Lake Retreat. The house feels like a home away from home, nestled in the trees with a view of the lake. Fall is a lovely time to be here and relax with friends. Short walks on crisp mornings, drives to local craft stores and relaxing by the fire made the trip just what we wanted for our time together. Debbie is a gracious host and responsive to needs. I will definitely consider staying again as Tripp Lake Retreat becomes a favorite spot.

Perfect for families

This property hit all the marks for us. My son played the piano all weekend, we took short trips to great hikes and famous natural locations, morning canoe 🛶 paddles and evening fires. Also, I have to mention the incredible deck space! There was plenty of space for two small families to share. We can’t say enough about this property. Only that we hope to be back next year!

Great scenary, was easy to relax to. REALLY missed no A/C for the first night (when out in heat all day, there was no comfort to be had that first night). Kind of small tv in main room. No screen on porch sliding door.Loved the spacious area for 6 people.

Cozy Family Home by Beautiful Lake

Really enjoyed our stay! Host Debbie was very responsive, nice and accommodating. The house was just the right size for our family getaway with 8 people, including 2 small children. The house is just steps away from gorgeous Lake Tripp. Short drive to touristy Lake George nearby. Great spot for a family seeking an Adirondack vacation.

Delightful Getaway

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Lots of extra amenities. Super comfortable. Only thing needed was a description of accessibility, steep driveway and three stories as we were all elderly.

Weekend getaway with friends

The house was perfect for our weekend getaway. The owners have taken very good care of this property. Our families had a blast using the canoes and swimming in the lake. My 8 year old son even learned how to paddleboard with a neighbor kid. We'll definitely look to renting this house again if we are in the area for another vacation.

Lovely spot on a lake, but bring your sheets!

The house is in a lovely location - quiet and a 2 minute walk to a lake with a great sandy beach. The house has lots of space, so if you're part of a large group, there's plenty of room to spread out. The lack of sheets and towels (don't forget to bring your own!) and the cleaning fee are the only reasons I can't give 5 stars. This is the first short term rental I've used that asked guests to strip the bed, load/run the dishwasher, and stick around to empty the dishwasher. The danger of having guests empty the dishwasher is that no one checks to see if they're clean. Some of the silverware in the drawer wasn't clean. Dirty forks aside, the lake was perfect on a hot summer day.

A beautiful, relaxing, and welcoming place to spend the Fourth!

The property was spacious, well-appointed and perfectly located right across the street from Tripp Lake. Debby, our host, responded to our queries quickly and completely, and was so thoughtful to include a story about the property in her guidebook that really endeared us to it, as well as a book to sign with personal messages when we left. Check-out directions were clear and reasonable and so were expectations regarding house rules and housekeeping. All in all, this was a wonderful property to stay at and we would be happy to return.

Met our expectations and then some!!

Perfection for our three generation getaway. Space was awesome as was location, well equipped with everything one would need. A teenager who needed his space; Mom had her knitting corner and Grammy a perfect reading nook. The private beach area suited the youngest among us and also for his Grammy. There’s nothing quite like being in the Adirondacks. Tripp Lake retreat was definitely a treat.

Wonderful place to stay!

This was our fifth time staying here and it was great as always. The weather wasn’t as great as other years but we still were able to enjoy the lake…the advantage of the location of the house is that you can quickly pack up and get back to the house if rain or a storm rolls in. The water was wonderful for swimming and kayaking (we bring our own kayaks). The house is very clean and comfortable. Highly recommend!
