About this property

Awesome Lake House On Glass Lake In Averill Park, NY

Our lake house is on Glass Lake in Averill Park, NY. In case you want to venture off, it is close to Saratoga (perfect for race season!), the Berkshires MA, Albany NY, and Vermont. You’ll love our place because of its location right on Glass Lake. Incredibly private with spacious property. Our lake house is great for families with kids and couples, and handicap accessible. It is great for any season (leaves, skiing, fishing, swimming). Kayaks, canoe, row boat.....and the lake!!

Our house is fabulous. A great spot for a family vacation. Kids love it here. So much to do and explore. Our house was built in 1965 and was a bit ahead of its time in design. It is definitely a year round home. You can use it for a hub for leaf viewing in the fall, skiing in the winter and of course "laking" in the spring and summer. A little piece of paradise. The house is in great shape too! Enjoy the upstairs fireplace, but make sure that the chimney flue is OPEN.

Our house is 10 minutes from local cross country skiing, only 25 minutes from Jiminy Peak in MA and less than an hour from Bennington, VT. Great location for access to other points of interest.

You will have the whole house for your visit. We do grant our neighbors lake access as well, but you won't see them much. They might come down from their own houses to jump in their boats and head out on the lake.

Lovely Lake and Views

Perfect place for family to be together and separate! Gorgeous views of the lake, great lawn, fun toys, lots of boats. Even with the wild fires keeping us inside for half of our stay, the space and the view kept us happy. Everything in the kitchen a CIA trained chef could desire.

This was our third year staying at the house and we have already reserved for 2024! It was unanimous! I believe that says how much we love staying here! Zach and Julie are wonderful hosts and are immediately responsive to any questions or needs. We could not ask for a better home for our family holiday. Thank you for another great stay.

University at Albany graduation

We stayed at this property to attend graduation. It was a 30 minute drive to campus. The location allowed us to have extended family and friends join us to celebrate after the ceremonies. The house is clean, comfortable, and spacious. The yard is large and beautiful. And the lake view is spectacular! The owners were easy to work with and extremely responsive.

Love on the Lake!

Since this has been our fourth stay it’s hard to think of something we have not said already! We love this house and location. Every morning to wake up and have coffee and watch sun rise over the lake and watch the view change depending on weather is awesome. We are close to family in the area and the house is very comfortable with lots of amenities. Zach is an excellent host. He quickly responds and is always nice to communicate with. Also would like to say thanks to Julie too! We love our time on the lake and always look forward to our next visit!

Wonderful!

This is our second family vacation at Zac's Lake House. This is such a wonderful family home on a beautiful and peaceful lake.The house is comfortable for a large group and is immaculately clean. Every amenity that you need is provided by the host from boats and life jackets, to board games and books. The kitchen modern and fully stocked with all types of cookware. There are beautiful views of the house from the house and deck. Zac is a great communicator and always quick to answer any questions. We highly recommend vacationing at this home and would love to return!

Family Gathering

The owner was quick to communicate and easy to work with. The house was quirky, but met our needs well. The kitchen was modern and well stocked. Only downside to the house was that the only bathroom on the main level is in the master, so if that person is sleeping, everyone has to use the downstairs bathroom. Obviously not something that can be fixed, but could be difficult for those with issues with stairs.

Great 40th bday ski weekend getaway! Great for families too!

We recently stayed at this property to ski at Jiminy & celebrate a 40th birthday. It was exactly what we were looking for and the house was perfect! We slept 10 adults with room for more if we had wanted (kids-free weekend, but they would have loved it too!) The house was stocked with everything we needed-we just brought the food and wine-even prepared a full bbq steak dinner easily. The ride to Jiminy was 25 minutes and "easy-peasy". Plenty of room for post-ski rexlaxing, thought we really spent most of our time sitting around the kitchen island, cooking together and enjoying the view. Zach and Wendy were very helpful and a pleasure to deal with while planning our stay and arrival. Would love to go back!

Terrific Family Vacation

Our group consisted of grandchildren, children, and grandparents. Everyone had a blast! Our youngest was excited to catch sunnies off the dock, all the kids toured along the lake in the kayaks provided, grandparents toured the lake in the canoe. The yard was flat and spacious for the traditional wiffle ball game. The home kitchen area had everything we could need for our stay. The interior was spacious enough for all ages to enjoy their “own space” given our different in age groups, yet all be together as a family. Our host was really great to deal with in every way and we will be returning to this property again creating fond family memories. Thank You Zach

Wonderful Family Getaway on Glass Lake!

We had a wonderful stay at Zach's place on Glass Lake! We were looking for a peaceful lakefront location with lake views, good water access, and comfortable accommodations, where we could gather with our adult children and their spouses for our annual family getaway. Zach's place provided all of these features and so much more. It is such a warm and peaceful setting, with comfortable indoor and outdoor spaces to gather as a family. The kitchen was incredible. So spacious and fun to cook in. The house was well stocked with everything that you need for your vacation, including many thoughtful extras such as books, board games, boats and life jackets, firewood for the wood burning fireplace, and so much more. Communication with Zach was great and he was pleasure to work with. This home far exceeded our expectations and we hope to return next year!
