About this property
Adirondack lakehouse w/80' beach on Great Sacandaga Lake
Our home is the upper level of a 2 family house located an hour northwest of Albany on beautiful Great Sacandaga Lake. It is nestled into the side of a wooded hill. The hilly terrain allows both levels to have their own on-grade entrances.
The 80' beach area is directly across the road from the driveway entrance and opposite a NYS public boat launch site, which is just a few hundred yards across the water. The waterfront includes a fireplace, dock, & picnic table.
You will especially appreciate the spacious layout and fully furnished kitchen. I enjoy the calming view of the woods from the dining room table. The family will have plenty of room to sleep. The three bedrooms have 2 queen and 2 single beds, plus there are 2 cots available or space on one of the couches for the kids.
Our home has two full baths and a laundry room. The Master bath includes a great whirlpool soaker tub.
Enjoy a game of 8-ball on the family room pool table or warm up in the cooler months in front of the living room fireplace. In warm months, you will really like the large patio complete with a picnic table, grill, and fire pit.
While there may be other guests downstairs during your stay, your living space is completely private and separate. The beach, dock, and lakeside picnic areas, however, are shared. You are welcome to tie up your boat or personal water craft at the dock.
If you are looking for some world class experiences, we are located about 40 miles from Saratoga. In less than an hour you can enjoy the famous Saratoga Race Course, be entertained by internationally known artists at the Saratoga Performing Arts Center, and go back in history with a tour of the crucial Revolutionary War Saratoga Battlefield.
We are also only an hour from the 6 Flags Great Escape amusement and water park with all the rides a child or adult child could ask for.
For winter guests, it is a short 20 minutes to the Lapland Lake Nordic Ski Center and 35-40 minutes to Oak Mountain or Royal Mountain downhill areas. Gore Mountain, one of New York's best, is only an hour away. Gore has 110 trails, boasts 2,537 vertical feet, and is home to the most skiable acreage in New York . While not a necessity all the time, since our driveway is fairly steep, winter guests might want to come with an all wheel or four wheel drive vehicle.
This is an ideal vacation spot for all season fun, including water skiing, tubing, fishing, fall foliage trips, and winter sports, all with beautiful mountain and lake views throughout the surrounding area.
All you need for a great family vacation are your own linens and towels. Free wifi and cable TV included.
One final note: While you are likely to see turkeys, deer, or other wildlife, please leave your personal pets at a safe place at home. They will be happier and so will we. Please also help us maintain a smoke free environment.

We had a lot of fun for this family vacation. The house was clean and well appointed. The access to the water is across the street but it is lovely. Kids enjoyed swimming off the dock and we enjoyed multiple fires by the water and again up by the house.
Second year in a row we stayed here. Great communication from host, clear & comprehensive. Good locations in town, close to everything. Quiet. Nice access to lake.
As always, the property was perfect for what everyone needed during our stay. Weather held out pretty much for the entirety of our trip, so we were able to enjoy the beach area and lake plenty! Accomodations in and outside of the house were a plenty and everyone was comfortable. Thank you for allowing us to stay at your property again! 🙂
We enjoyed our stay at the house in Northville! It is close to the center of a picturesque Adirondack town and near a beautiful lake surrounded by mountains!
I hope that we can come back next year!
Kitchen well stocked with all the necessary items for eating and cooking, including spices, very nice. Fire place was very nice, which we used each night.
Staying in this rental is nothing short of perfectly accomodating every single time; communication with the friendly owners is quick and easy if needed and the home is as described and more. My family and I enjoy ourselves everytime we are here and have no complaints with the property. Weather was actually beautiful for a few days, and the beach location was nice and clean and put to good use! Highly recommend this location to anyone looking for a quaint, quiet place to stay. 🙂
What a great experience! The house was clean and just as it was listed! Plenty of room for all of us. It was very close to Northville which was so convenient. We had a great time. We wish the weather was better so we could enjoy the beautiful beach rights but that’s NY in October. We will definitely book here again if it’s available.
The home is conveniently located to Northville. We enjoyed the home and was spacious enough for all of us. The owners were very accommodating and provided excellent instructions. We really enjoyed our weekend ice fishing in Northville. We will be definitely look to book this home again next year.

Clean comfortable and well equipped
My brothers and I spent our annual hunting trip at the Northville property. We found it to be really comfortable and welcoming. We found the kitchen to be very well equipped and easy to work in. The pool table was used endlessly all weekend. Overall We found this to be a great spot to spend our time and plan to return next year. Chris and Dave are wonderful hosts and respond quickly to any questions, thank you again for providing a great place to stay!!
Clean, close to shops in Northville. Wonderful Lake access site. Both the lake access/dock and the house were quiet, private and well-kept. Kitchen well-stocked. Liked that there were no stairs within the house (just the few outside). We had relatives staying in the lower-level space, which was also great. It made for a good situation, close to extended family, but everyone had their own space to go if needed.
The rental was clean and well maintained, plenty of kitchen and cleaning supplies. Beds were comfortable. No views of the lake, but nice, quiet forest setting. Beach access is a 2 min drive away or a short walk. Beach is on a quiet cove. Great Sacandaga Lake is all rocks in this area, buy inexpensive water shoes in Northville at the 5 and 10. Main Bedroom could use a TV. Wifi has a good strong signal. The outside porch, outdoor furniture and front wooden steps could use a power wash. We would stay here again.
House was moderately clean. The bunk room has no aircon or ceiling fan so it was very hot to sleep in. Vacuum was not working even tho it's been on the charger the whole time. Unfortunately no broom so we had to use dustpan to try and sweep the floor. Dishwasher was not working. Had a foul smell when opened. We washed everything by hand. There was no pots or pans for stovetop, we came with our small pot for my toddler & that still wouldn't get the stove working. Majority of the utensils were still a little dirty. We rewashed them all before used.
Positive side, very beautiful small house. Kicthen opening out to lounge room is beautiful. Front yard is a beautiful setting with a nice fresh air breeze. Comfortable beds and complimentary towels and bathroom essentials was very generous. Nice location close to beach & shopping. Easy, simple instructions for access.
My family thoroughly enjoyed their stay.
Thank you
We've rented here several years and have never been disappointed finding it well equipped and very comfortable. We are looking forward to renting again next year!!
We enjoyed our stay very much. Everything we needed was there. The driveway up to the property was a little rough but not a problem. Very accommodating with all the things you need to cook and etc.
I would recommend this place if your looking for privacy and peaceful relaxation.
We rented this house because it listed lakefront. That was a huge disappointment. It’s across the street and just a rocky area unfit to swim or really do anything other than stand and look at the lake. We ended up going to the Mayfield Town Beach and paying $10 to park one day and the Wells Town Beach the next.
We did enjoy the house. The kids loved the pool table and spent plenty of time playing pool! The beds were very comfortable and the house provided room for everyone to spread out as well as hang together. There were cupboards full of dishes and pots and pans, but a strange absence of basic drinking glasses. We never used the grill or outdoor fire pit. The central air was a welcome blessing. As a gathering spot, it was perfect, just not as a waterfront spot. I had scoured the reviews before renting and no one mentioned the waterfront quality so I wasn’t aware that we wouldn’t be able to swim there. I want to make that clear for anyone else considering this property. There’s plenty of positives about this property, but the lakefront isn’t one of them.
If you are looking for a place that is at the lake and with boat dock this is the place. Clean and plenty of room for a family of 6 even though it was just the three of us. We enjoyed the fire pit and the out door picnic areas at the house and at the beach.
We had a very relaxing time! The house was clean and had ample space for our family. The surrounding town was quaint and the people were incredibly friendly. We made several day trips and found great places to eat!
